DIY – ravenol

• Economical.
• Provides protection.
• Easy-to-use.
• Solvent based.
• Good water resistance.
• Non water tainting.
• Chemical resistance: 10% ammonium hydroxide, 40% sodium hydroxide, 10% hydrochloric acid, 10% sulphuric acid, domestic bleach.
• Maximum service temperature: Dry immersion 60 ºC.

Any surface to which ravenol is to be applied must be clean, mechanically sound and dry. Surfaces should be free of oil, grease, loose material and old paint.

No priming required.

Stir well before use. For spray application through conventional equipment, some 10 – 15% by volume dilution with white spirits or turpentine substitute will be needed.  If used in a dipping bath, the viscosity should be reduced to some 20 sec BSB4.

8 – 10 m²/L on smooth surfaces. Minimum of two coats must be applied.

Typical (brushed) dft/coat (steel): 50 µm.

Wet film thickness at above: 100 µm

ravenol can be applied by brush, spray or dipping. ravenol may be applied directly from the container.

Minimum requirements for airless application – 23:1 airless pump such as the Graco Monarch with 5 – 6 bar inlet air pressure.

None.

1 L, 5 L and 25 L containers.

Shelf life of 24 months, but shorter if in extreme conditions.  Keep tightly sealed in a dry cool place in the original packaging

Fire resistance of wet material: Flammable.

Toxicity: Solvents are toxic.

Ventilate working area well during application and drying.  Avoid flames in vicinity. Always wear gloves when working with the material and avoid excessive inhalation and skin contact.  If material is splashed in the eye, wash with plenty of clean water and seek medical attention.

Cured ravenol is inert and harmless.
