DRYING AND OVERCOATING

Drying time

Surface temperature	Touch dry	Hard dry	Fully cured
-10°C [14°F]	14 h	45 h	63 d
0°C [32°F]	8 h	23 h	32 d
20°C [68°F]	2½ h	4 h	7 d
30°C [86°F]	1½ h	2½ h	3½ d

Overcoating

Quality name	-10°C [14°F]	0°C [32°F]	20°C [68°F]	30°C [86°F]
Atmospheric severe – Min / Max	45 h / 90 d	23 h / 90 d	5 h / 30 d	4 h / 22 d
Hempathane HS 55610 – Min / Max	54 h / 27 d	27 h / 13 d	6 h / 72 h	4½ h / 54 h
Immersion – Min / Max	54 h / 90 d	27 h / 90 d	6 h / 30 d	4½ h / 22 d

Drying conditions

• To obtain the drying time stated, it is important to maintain sufficient ventilation during application, drying and curing.

Overcoating details

• If the maximum overcoating interval is exceeded, roughening of the surface is necessary to ensure intercoat adhesion.
• The surface must be dry and clean prior to application.

Other remarks

• Epoxy coats have an inherent tendency of chalking in outdoor exposure. This does not affect the performance of the coating.
• Hempel’s Specification supersedes any recommendations given in the Product Data Sheets.
