Application instructions

Guide itemRecommendation
Recommended dry film thickness30-50 µm
Recoating interval3-24 h
Suggested painting methodsBrush, roller, air spray or high-pressure airless spray
Low-temperature useCan be used below -10°C; keep the paint bucket in an air-conditioned room for at least 24 h before low-temperature use
Material handlingMix the A/B materials accurately and evenly; use up the mixed material within 1 hour
Thinner controlDo not add thinner without supplier guidance; call the manufacturer if viscosity changes with environment or humidity

Application tips

  • BW8008 is two-component, so A/B materials must be accurately mixed and stirred evenly before application.
  • Use up the mixed material within 1 hour, and do not pour unused mixed material back into the original pail.
  • If low-temperature application is planned, keep the paint bucket in an air-conditioned room for at least 24 hours before use.
  • The factory-adjusted viscosity should not be changed with thinner unless the supplier gives specific guidance.

These answers support metal primer, anticorrosion coating and protective system planning before ordering.

What is BW8008 used for?

BW8008 is used as a two-component metal primer for anticorrosion coating on metal structures, stainless steel, aluminum surfaces and low-surface-treatment rusty metal before the matching protective coating system.

Why is BW8008 used before protective topcoats?

The data sheet describes a dense, tough film with good wetting and shielding performance, strong adhesion to metal substrates, compatibility with following coating films and excellent cathodic disbonding resistance.

How can BW8008 be applied?

The application guide lists brush, roller, airless spray and air spray. The metal surface is generally recommended to be blasted to Sa2.5, or manually cleaned and ground to St2 when blasting is unavailable.

What dry film thickness and recoating interval are recommended?

The data sheet recommends 30-50 micrometers dry film thickness and a 3-24 hour recoating interval. At 20 degrees C, the listed minimum interval is 3 hours and maximum interval is 24 hours.

What chemical resistance data is listed for BW8008?

The data sheet lists 50% H2SO4 or 15% HCl acid resistance, 50% NaOH alkali resistance, 60 g/L salt resistance, 1000 h salt spray resistance and oil resistance, with no rust, no bubbles and no peeling in the listed results.

Does BW8008 require A/B component mixing?

Yes. BW8008 is a two-component primer with a listed A:B weight ratio of 1:1. The mixed material should be used within 1 hour, and unused mixed material should not be poured back into the original pail.
