C2 - Typical coating system
More about selecting coating systems for general steel constructions including C2 in our Guide to ISO 12944.
| Condition: |
A high durability coating system for environmental conditions classified as C2-low corrosivity. |
||||||||
| Substrate: | Steel | ||||||||
| C2 - low corrosivity according to ISO 12944 | C3 - medium corrosivity according to ISO 12944 | C4 - high corrosivity according to ISO 12944 | |||||||
| Expected durability (acc. ISO 12944) |
Low | Medium | High | Low | Medium | High | Low | Medium | High |
| Surface preparation: | Blast cleaning to Sa 2½ according to ISO 8501-1. The substrate must be dry and free from salts and other contaminants. Prior to blast cleaning, oil and grease should be removed by solvent cleaning according to SSPC-SP1. Remove weld spatter and smooth weld seams and sharp edges as applicable. Sharp edges, weld seams, corners and other areas that are likely to receive less dry film thickness than specified, should be stripe coated. Please read the actual product datasheet for more information. |
