Product information mentioned in the technical datasheet is given for information purposes and can differ from requirements of specifications above. In that case, customer requirements are valid for your application.

XS420 Base: 24ºC (75ºF)
XS420 Hardener: 170ºC (338ºF) Gloss levels have been determined using glossmeter with an angle of incidence of 60º. The theorical consumption value doesn’t take into account the transfer efficiency for spray application

Mixing ratio by volume - Base 2 V
Mixing ratio by volume - Hardener / Catalyst 1 V
Mixing ratio by volume - Water 0.5 V to 1 V

Mixing Procedure
Ideally, the unmixed products should be stored between 18ºC and 25ºC (64ºF and 77ºF) for 24 hours before use.
The XS420 base should be mixed for 5 minutes in a pneumatic or oscillating mixer before use.
Mix the base, hardener and thinner until the mixture is homogenous.
PThe mixture must be made at a temperature between 15ºC and 35ºC (59ºF and 95ºF).
Remark : It is recommended to sieve the mixture using a 125-190 µm (4.9-7.5 mils) filter.
For gray and black colors, 0.5v dilution is recommended.
For white and bright colors, 1V dilution is recommended.

Note
Viscosities mentioned above are corresponding to the recommended range of viscosity to ensure compliant application. The range of dilution must be used to adjust viscosity to reach the recommended one.
ISO 6 Cup is the reference cup. The others are given for information purposes.

Gloss Level:
For semi-gloss :10 GU < B < 20 GU
20 GU < B < 45 GU

For mat : B < 5 GU

For the Thinner P2, drying times are :
Drying times have been determined using test pieces of a thickness < 2 mm and for 50 µm (2.0 mils) of dry film. Leave to flash off for 1 hour at 23°C (73.4°F) before curing.

XS420 must be applied on an appropriate primer according to substrate used and protection required.
XS420 is compatible with the following primer SP350, P60-LC, P60-A, P65HG, F69 and the PU system Phosmap 11 and Isomap P23.
All recommendations mentioned above are given for information.

The number of coats depends on the size and the shape of the part to which it is being applied.
Application of two coats as crossed coats. Leave to flash off for 30 minutes at room temperature and apply again two coats as crossed coats to obtain the required thickness.

Clean the equipment with an appropriate cleaning thinner, such as Mapaero D713 or P2 or cetonic solvent
