Product Description
ProXL Paint Rocket is a premium paint accelerator for use with 2K isocyanate hardeners. It is mainly used to reduce the curing times of 2K paint systems in cold temperatures.
This additive is suitable for use with paints, clearcoats and primers, reducing curing times by 30-50%. It is supplied in a dispenser bottle with an upper dosing chamber. This allows the required amount to be easily measured and added to the hardener without the use of external measuring equipment.
Warning: ProXL Paint Rocket should only be used with slow, standard or fast hardeners. It should never be added to extra-fast hardeners. If an excessive ratio is used, or if used in too warm an environment, there could be a reduction of gloss level in the finished surface.
Mixing guide
Mix ProXL Paint Rocket directly with your isocyanate hardener, add between 10 and 30ml per litre of hardener (1-3%). Once the Paint Rocket is added to your hardener, shake well before adding to your paint.
Directions for use
Loosen the cap and gently squeeze the filled dispenser bottle with one hand, filling the dosing chamber to the required amount. The cap is then removed allowing the measured amount to be dispensed with ease.
Surface Preparation
Proper surface preparation is essential for the success of any protective coating system. Before you begin ensure the area is free from any dust, oil, grease, old coatings and surface contaminants.
The preparation of steelwork prior to painting generally falls into two main areas; that of degreasing and the removal of rust and scale.
All surfaces to be painted should be clean, dry and free from loose and flaking material, dust, grease and millscale, etc.
Prime bare surfaces with Palatine Anti-Corrosive Metal Primer or Palatine All Purpose Primer / Undercoat in accordance with our recommendations
For non-ferrous metals use Palatine Fast Dry etching primer.
Rub down previously gloss painted surfaces with fine waterproof abrasive paper and rinse thoroughly.
Mixing
Stir the paint with a drill stirrer or wooden baton at least 2” wide. Continue to stir during application.
Application
Best results are obtained in warm (minimum 10°C), dry conditions.
Mix thoroughly for approximately 2 minutes using a drill stirrer. A wooden batten at least 25mm wide is also ideal.
Apply an even coat using a brush, short to medium pile roller on smooth surfaces and a long pile roller on textured surfaces
For spray application by either airless or conventional spray a dilution ration of no more than 10% is recommended with Palatine White Spirit by volume applying thin coats allowing each one to dry before applying subsequent coats.
Once dried, a second coat can be applied at full strength. This will prolong the life and performance of the coating.
Thinning and Cleaning: Use Palatine White Spirit.
If using more than one batch of the same colour, intermix before use
Preceding Coat
Prime bare surfaces with Palatine Anti-Corrosive Metal Primer or Palatine All Purpose Primer / Undercoat in accordance with our recommendations
For non-ferrous metals use Palatine Mordant Solution.
Subsequent Coat
A second coat is recommended for maximum protection.
