Technical Information Zinc Powder Paint
Physical and chemical data
- Basis of the binder: Zinc powder paint with 99,5 % zinc in the dry film
- Colour: graphite-grey
- Degree of gloss (at measurement angle 60° acc. to DIN 67530):
not relevant - Efficiency:
appox. 240 - 300 g per paint coat per m², depending on layer thickness. For an exact calculation we recommend a trial coating. - Drying time (at 20°C, 60% relative air humidity):
Dust-dry: after approx. 4-5 hours
Dry to touch: after approx. 10 hours
Coatable after 24 hours
The drying time depends on surrounding temperature and air humidity. - Best working temperature and object temperature:
Object temperature min. 5°C - Cleaning of tools: immediately after use with zinc cleaner
- Storage stability:
5 years if appropriate storage provided (=10°-25°C, relative air humidity of max. 60%) in the unopened original container.
Do not store below 5°C - Size: metal tins 250 ml

- Remark: test compatibility with existing old paintings by a sample coating. Depending on method of application there may occur colour differences.
- Suitable grounds are bearing, dry, rust-free and clean surfaces, which are free from releasing substances. We recommend to consider the VOB, part C, DIN 18363.
- Zinc Powder Paint is adjusted brushable.
- Before use, carefully stir up.
- In order to achieve the high layer thickness, apply undiluted.
- Optimal layer thickness will be achieved by brushing.
- Hand-derusted areas 3 x, all other surfaces should be coated 2 x.
- Minimum layer thickness 80 µm per layer if undiluted.
