Anticora EZP 500
Epoxy Zinc Phosphate Primer
Product Description
Anticora EZP 500 is
a two-component high solid primer with lead free rust inhibitive pigmentation.
Features and Benefits
Easy
to apply and can be applied via airless spray, conventional spray, brush or
roller.
Ideal
for use as a field primer on interior and exterior steel as part of a system
to be topcoated with chlorinated rubber, epoxy and polyurethane topcoats.
A
rust inhibitive primer over iron and steel and protects steel from
atmospheric corrosion.
Provides
much higher degree of protection than conventional primers in severe
corrosive conditions.
Excellent
resistance to acids, alkalis, water, salts, oils, petroleum solvents.
Has
very low water and water vapour permeability.
Has
excellent adhesion, toughness, abrasion resistance and overall chemical and
solvent resistance.
While
inferior surface preparation can never be recommended, Anticora EZP 500 can
tolerate, though with shorter life, power tool and hand cleaned steel
surfaces.
Ideal
for high humidity, moisture, marine atmospheres, heavy rains, high
temperatures, damp conditions, very low dusty and fungus prone conditions.
Durable
and economical.

Surface Preparation:
Steel
- The
surface should be blast cleaned to SSPC-SP 10-63T or NACE No. 2
i.e. loose rust and scales, dirt, grease, oil, paint, wax, weak oxide films and
other contaminants should be removed. Blast cleaning to SSPC-SP 5-63 or NACE No. 1 is recommended where heavy corrosive conditions
exist or coating is required to be immersed. That means a surface with a grey
metallic colour, slightly roughened to form a suitable anchor pattern for
coatings. This surface is free of all oil, grease, dirt, mill scale, rust,
corrosion products, oxides, paint and other foreign matter. In absence of blast
cleaning, prepare the metal surface by wire brushing, sanding, grinding,
scrapping or chipping with hand or power tools. Remove all the contaminants.
Apply one coat of Anticora EZP 500. It
can be overcoated with Durapoxy 200
Epoxy Enamel, Anuthane Enamel
Polyurethane
or Monocoat Enamel
Polyurethane, Anuchlor 555 LB
Chlorinated Rubber Enamel.
Non-ferrous Metals - Remove dirt, dust, oil, old paint etc. Degrease the surface with degreasing solvents like xylene or tri-chloroethylene. Apply one coat of Anuprime - 291 Wash Primer for obtaining maximum adhesion. Apply one or two coats of Anticora EZP 500.

Notes
Brushes and
spray equipments should be cleaned with Anusol - ETP Epoxy Thinner.
The contents should be stirred thoroughly prior to use.
After mixing Base and Hardener in recommended proportions, allow for 30
minutes induction period or sweat-in-time (maturing) before application.
When overcoating the weathered or aged Anticora
EZP 500, ensure that the coating is fully free from all contamination
such as oil, dust, grease, stains etc.
This coating should always be thinned with Anusol - ETP Epoxy Thinner.
The use of alternative thinners can severely inhibit the curing mechanism of the
coating.
