How to Apply TK88 Thermal Coating

Substrate Preparation

The surface must be clean, dry, and free of grease, oil, and dust. Use a citrus degreaser to clean area where coating is to be applied.

• Apply at minimum of 40°F at a thickness of 1.0 mm (30-40 mils)
• Roll or Spray On coating assuring 100% coverage. Let coating dry to touch (estimated 1-2 hours dependent on humidity, coating thickness, temperature and air movement).
• When applying the second coat, be sure to apply on a touch dry coating and use generously to maximize protection and strength of the coating.
• Do not apply if humidity is expected to be greater than 80% and the temperature to be below 60°F.
• Apply minimum 2 coats.
• Can be cleaned with water (damp cloth) while wet, remove mechanically when dried.
