as Belzona® 9121, MEK, Acetone or cellulose thinners.
Mix the two components thoroughly to achieve a uniform
material free of any streakiness.
NOTES:
1. Belzona® 1511 should NOT be applied at temperatures
below 50°F (10°C).

4. OVERCOAT TIMES
Belzona® 1511 can be overcoated as soon as it is firm enough
to do so. At 68°F (20°C) it will be possible to overcoat in
3-4 hours.
The maximum overcoat time is 24 hours. After this time the
surface must be grit blasted to achieve a frosted appearance
with a minimum surface profile of 40 microns before applying
further material.
5. COMPLETION OF THE MOLECULAR
REACTION
When overcoated with a Belzona high temperature coating, the
Belzona 1511 will post cure in service and the relevant cure
schedule specified for the Belzona coating should be followed.
Alternatively allow Belzona® 1511 to solidify as below before
subjecting it to the conditions indicated.

Alternatively, allow to cure at ambient temperature before post
curing for at least 1 hour at minimum 122°F (50°C). Temperature
should not be increased at more than 55°F (30°C) per hour.
