Ultra Topcoat is a quick drying, glossy alkyd topcoat that contains aromatic solvents.
To be used as topcoat on steel and other metal constructions with high gloss and colour retention demands. Colours made from MCI Base Yellow is semigloss.
Gloss Glossy
*Measured according to ISO 3233:1998 (E)
All surfaces should be clean, dry and free from contamination. The surface should be assessed and treated in accordance with ISO 8504.
Clean, dry and undamaged compatible primer. Contact your local Jotun office for more information.
The coating may be used on other substrates. Please contact your local Jotun office for more information.
The temperature of the substrate should be minimum 3ºC above the dew point of the air, temperature and relative humidity measured in the vicinity of the substrate. Good ventilation is usually required in confined areas to ensure correct drying.
Thinner/Cleaner Jotun Thinner No. 7
Pressure at nozzle 15 MPa (150 kp/cm², 2100 psi.)
Nozzle tip 0.38 - 0.53 mm (0.015 - 0.021")
Filter Check to ensure that the filters are clean.
Drying times are generally related to air circulation, temperature, film thickness and number of coats, and will be affected correspondingly. The figures given in the table are typical with:

1. Ultra Topcoat can be recoated with coatings containing xylene or stronger solvents within 30 hours or after 7 days after application.
1. The surface should be dry and free from any contamination prior to application of the subsequent coat.
The given data must be considered as guidelines only. The actual drying time/times before recoating may be shorter or longer, depending on film thickness, ventilation, humidity, underlying paint system, requirement for early handling and mechanical strength etc. A complete system can be described on a system sheet, where all parameters and special conditions could be included.
