Enamel "HV-124": technical characteristics, consumption and use

Products made of wood or metal on the street need additional protection from adverse climatic and weather conditions. Due to the effects of heat, cold, temperature changes, high humidity or precipitation, metal and wooden structures quickly become unusable. To increase their service life was created enamel XB-124.

Enamel HV-124 creates a protective sheath on the surface of the processed products, which increases their strength and reliability, as well as improves their decorative qualities. Also paint is famous for its anti-corrosion properties. It prevents rust.. These qualities of enamel are due to its unique composition.

Also the coloring material contains:

• alkyd resin;
• various fillers;
• plasticizers;
• pigments.

Manufacturers produce protective enamel in green and gray colors. If necessary, the paint can be made in any shade (blue, yellow, red, blue, white) in accordance with the sample of the customer.

The main function of enamel HV-124 is to protect metal and wood products from adverse external factors.

The composition is widely used:

• during repair and construction work, the construction of private buildings, giving strength to structures made of wood;
• in machine building and instrument making;
• in the military industry to give the surface technology strength and resistance to sunlight, humidity, frost;
• to increase the aesthetics and durability of reinforced concrete structures, bridge spans, production workshops;
• for protective treatment of chimneys, pipelines and various production equipment.

Enamel has gained popularity in the construction of buildings in the north due to its cold-resistant qualities. The paint can be used as a decorative composition or antiseptic substance to prevent the occurrence of fungus and mold.

Before applying the enamel should be familiar with its basic technical parameters.

The most important product features:

• drying time is no more than 2 hours at a temperature of 20 degrees (the final multilayer coating dries within 24 hours);
• consumption per 1 m² - from 115 to 145 (depending on the viscosity of the composition and method of applying the dye);
• layer thickness is 25-30 microns;
• viscosity coefficient - from 30 to 60;
• adhesion - no more than 2 points;
• opacity - up to 60 g / m²;
• Layer life is up to 6 years.

If necessary, the paint can be diluted to the optimum consistency using solvent P-4. All information about the technical characteristics of the composition and the features of its application are given in the document on the quality of enamel (GOST No. 10144-89).

Enamel HV-124 - a unique composition that withstands any climatic conditions, from tropical to Antarctic.The protective sheath formed on the surface of the treated products is “not afraid” of the effects of detergents and cleaning agents, chemical, salt, acid and alkaline solutions.

Other important benefits of enamel include:

• possibility of exposure to critical temperature fluctuations;
• an obstacle to the occurrence and development of metal corrosion (even if available before processing);
• easy application of the composition to the surface and its economical consumption;
• good plasticity of the substance, causing high rates of adhesion;
• fire resistance and moisture resistance;
• durability;

• quick drying;
• the formation of a smooth and even layer without "folds" and other defects;
• providing an aesthetic appearance of the processed product;
• affordable price.

The disadvantages of the material include mandatory priming of metal products before the staining procedure.

Also, cons of the toxicity of the composition and its pungent smell.

To obtain the most reliable and durable coating, before applying enamel XB-124, it is necessary to observe a number of important conditions.For example, the air temperature should be at least -10 and no more than +30 degrees, and the humidity should not exceed 75%. For convenience, you can use a solvent to liquefy the composition. However, it must be remembered that it will reduce the shell thickness, increase porosity and reduce elasticity.

Before dyeing, it is important to carefully prepare the workpiece.

The preparatory phase includes several activities.

1. Cleaning the surface of various contaminants, grease and rust. For these works, you can use a metal brush, grinder, sandblasting, wet cloth. The cleaned surface should be evenly rough (in places of metal rusting, the color may be darker).
2. Dust removal and degreasing of the structure with the help of a rag soaked in white spirit.
3. Primer of metal products.

Enamel HV-124 is applied in various ways. For coloring can be applied:

• brush;
• construction roller;
• spray gun.

Due to airless spraying, large areas can be quickly processed. Also, due to the use of electrical devices, it is possible to provide more efficient painting of structures without external defects.

The first layer is applied to the dried primer. After 2 hours, paint the product again.. When using the product in a temperate climatic zone, the surfaces are treated at least 3 times.

If the task is to protect a tree or metal in conditions of low or excessively high temperatures, four-layer processing is recommended. designs. The drying period of each layer depends on external indicators (temperature, humidity).

During the work with structure it is necessary to observe a number of security measures:

• indoors, you need to create forced ventilation (you can not work in a confined space due to toxic fumes);
• Enamel should not be used near open flame and sources of possible ignition;
• during the work it is necessary to protect the body with the help of a specialized suit and gloves;
• for protection of the organs of vision and respiration it is recommended to use a gas mask or respirator with glasses (getting enamel in the eyes, and its toxic fumes in the lungs is dangerous to health).

With the help of enamel HV-124 you can quickly and inexpensively create high-quality anti-corrosion coating. Due to the many advantages of this composition can be used both at home and for solving professional problems.
