Color: White, Gray, and Red
Finish: Low Sheen
 
Coating Systems:
Finish Coats:
Typical topcoats include waterborne enamels such as Anchor #2800 Series and many alkyd enamels. Consult your Anchor representative for specific job recommendations.
 
Surface Preparation:
Apply only over clean, dry and properly cured surfaces that are free of cutting solutions, form release agents, dirt, loose foreign matter and moisture. On structural steel, the substrate shall be thoroughly degreased in accordance with SSPC-SP1 standards. All burrs should be removed and sharp edges or rough weld seams should be ground down. All rust and mill scale should be removed as required by SSPC-SP6 surface preparation (minimum). For bridge construction, SSPC-SP5 is recommended.

Application Considerations:
Spray recommended. Do not apply when overnight freeze, rain or dew is forecast. NOTE: During Conditions of high humidity or moist air, allow for a much longer cure time. Warm air, moving over the substrate, will promote drying and improve cure time when less than optimum application conditions exist. When applying this coating by roller application, extra attention to detail is necessary to avoid pinholes.
