To prepare fresh metal for PropOne application we recommend:
- Xylene/Acetone wipe down to remove surface contaminants (New white rag).
- Light abrasion using a mechanical grinder, wire wheel or by hand sanding (80-120 Grit).
- Cleaning with a 10% solution of Hydrochloric acid and 90% water (New white rag).
- Rinse with water, then apply Prop Wash (New white rag).
- Apply a simple water break test. Spray water on the surface and check that water droplets are not beading on the metal.
- If water is beading, repeat above steps.
- If water is not beading, dry with acetone and commence painting.
See technical data sheet and refer to brief application guide for more information on painting times
