• The main requirement that must be met when applying KO 8101 is a well-prepared surface. The place on which the enamel will be applied should be well dried, without plaque and obvious roughness. It is desirable that the surface was degreased. Be sure to clean the surface of rust and chips, in order to remove the old paint, you can use the manual method. To degrease the surface, you can safely use the cloth soaked in a special solvent.
• It is important to take into account the air temperature at which the product will be applied. Application is possible at the lowest temperatures not lower than -30 ° C and the highest + 40 ° C. Humidity should not exceed 80%.

• If the material is applied in cold conditions, the temperature of the surrounding atmosphere and the surface, which is coated with enamel, should be controlled. The place of application must be at least three degrees warmer than air. Only in this case will it be possible to avoid the formation of frost or dew. It is not recommended to carry out work at a time when it is raining or snowing.
• Sometimes it is necessary to dilute the enamel. This happens if the composition looks too thick. Xylene can be used for dilution. Experts advise to apply enamel not with one layer, but with at least two, then the surface will be uniform, and the heat-resistant film will be twice as strong. The second layer immediately follows the first one, “wet over wet”, with intervals between application not less than 7 minutes. The thickness of the final dried layer should be only 32 microns.
