    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Provides requirements for full gloss epoxy paint intended for the protection of iron and steel structures against exterior corrosion in a severe industrial or marine environment.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Standard specifies requirements for a two-component, full gloss epoxy paint for the protection of iron and steel against exterior atmospheric corrosion in a severe industrial or coastal marine environment. It is suitable for application by conventional air or airless spraying and may also be applied by roller or brush. Paint specified in this Standard is described in AS 2312 as Paint Reference 24.This paint is intended for use as a topcoat in paint systems for the protection of iron and steel against corrosion involving wet and damp areas, high humidity, coastal/marine and industrial fallout.NOTES:1 This paint may be used as detailed for systems MP5-A, MP5-E, MP5-I and MP6-A in AS 2312.2 Appendix A contains recommendations and advice on information which should be provided by the purchaser at the time of enquiry or order.3 Additional information on the use and application of epoxy paints is contained in Appendix B.4 Alternative methods for determining compliance with this Standard are contained in Appendix C.5 The paint is available in a range of colours.6 Full gloss epoxy paints should not be used as a finish coat in exterior applications where retention of colour and gloss is required for long periods of time.
