Drying time 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: * Good ventilation (Outdoor exposure or free circulation of air) * Typical film thickness * One coat on top of inert substrate * Relative humidity 70% Substrate temperature 23C 35C 45C Surface dry 6 h 4 h 2 h Through dry 8 h 6 h 4 h Dry to recoat, minimum 6 h 4 h 2 h Dry to recoat, maximum 1. Recommended data given for recoating with the same generic type of paint. 2. In case of multi-coat application, drying times will be influenced by the number and sequence and by the total thickness of previous coats applied reference is made to the corresponding system data sheet. 3. 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.
