Awlgrip High Build Epoxy Converter - D3002Q

Awlgrip D3002 High Build Epoxy Primer Converter is a two component epoxy primer for use where high build and filling is required. This product is not to be used below the waterline.

Features:

• High build, two-part epoxy primer converter
• Use where high build and filling is required
• Best applied using a paint sprayer
• Not recommended for roll and tip applications
• Not to be used below the waterline
• Best when used over other Awlgrip primers and fairing compounds
• May be applied directly to properly prepared wood or fiberglass
• Best results are obtained when these surfaces are first sealed with 545 Primer
• Best when used over other Awlgrip primers and fairing compounds. May be applied directly to properly prepared wood or fiberglass, however best results are obtained when these surfaces are first sealed with 545 Primer
  • Gelcoat/Fiberglass: Sand with 100-150 grit paper
  • Wood: Smooth sand with 80-100 grit paper

Mixing and Reduction:

• Mix by volume one part base with one part converter to a smooth homogenous mixture
• Induction time after mixing: 15 minutes
• Reduce 10 - 20% with appropriate reducer
• Anticipated Pot Life time at 77° F/50% relative humidity is 8 hours
• Higher temperatures may shorten pot life

Application Instructions:

• Apply Awl-Grip High Build Epoxy Primer in even coats of 8 to 10 mils (200-250 microns) wet film thickness yielding 4 - 5 mils (100 to 125 microns) DFT. Two to three coats may be needed.
• Do not apply to surfaces warmer than 105° F or colder than 55° F. Do not attempt to cure products at temperatures below 55° F. Do not apply to surfaces less than 3° C or 5° F above Dew Point or to surfaces warmer than 41° C/105° F. Ambient temperatures should be 13° C/55° F - 41° C/105° F
