Technical Data Sheet
Jotashield Flex
The temperature of the substrate should be minimum 10 °C and at least 3 °C above the dew point of the air,
measured in the vicinity of the substrate. Good ventilation is usually required in confined areas to ensure proper
drying.
Recommended film thickness per coat
Dry film thickness : 60 - 90 microns (μm)
Wet film thickness : 142 - 214 microns (μm)
Film thickness will vary and is calculated as average.
Spreading rate per coat
Theoretical Spreading rate per coat (m²/l) : 4.7 - 7
Spreading rate depends on film thickness applied, type of texture, surface porosity, imperfections, temperature,
wastage during painting etc.
Thinner
Water
Dilution
The paint is ready to use after proper stirring. No thinning is required.
Drying times
Drying times are generally related to air circulation, temperature, film thickness and number of coats, and will
be affected correspondingly. The figures given in the table are typical with:
Good ventilation (Outdoor exposure or free circulation of air)
Typical film thickness
One coat on top of inert substrate
The given data must be considered as guidelines only. The actual drying time and time before recoating may be
shorter or longer, depending on the ambient temperature, film thickness, ventilation, humidity, underlying paint
system, requirement for early handling and mechanical strength etc.
1. Recommended data given is, for recoating with the same generic type of paint.
2. In case of multi-coat application, drying times will be influenced by the number and sequence and by the
total thickness of previous coats applied.
3. The surface should be dry and free from any contamination prior to application of the subsequent coat.
Relative Humidity (RH) 50 %
Substrate temperature 10 °C 23 °C 40 °C
Surface (touch) dry 4h 2 h 1 h
Hard dry 12 h 8 h 6 h
Dry to over coat, minimum 8h 4 h 2 h
Directions for use
Surface preparation
The substrate must be sound, clean, dry and free from dust, oil, grease, laitance etc. All traces of form release
agents/curing agents must be removed. A light sanding with suitable abrasive material is recommended before
application. Any resulting dust/loose particles must be removed.
