POR-15 Topcoat Aerosol how to apply demo

Works on bare metal or painted surfaces

POR-15 Top Coat DTM paint


POR-15 Top Coat paint is a DTM ( direct-to-metal ) coating designed to work on prepped bare metal and over previously painted surfaces. POR-15 Top Coat opaque colors are also excellent to use over POR-15 Rust Preventive Coating, and works to provide a UV resistant layer and different color esthetic to the permanent corrosion barrier of the Rust Preventive coating system.

Safety colors for work machines & assets

Tough and easy to use single component general use paint

POR-15 Top Coat safety colors comply with OSHA required/recommended color codes for marking physical hazards and designating caution, to include protective equipment. Under exterior exposure POR-15 Top Coat has exceptional long-term sheen and color retention. POR-15 Top Coat can be applied directly to prepped metal substrates or previously painted surfaces, with no need for a primer or undercoat, and is formulated to form a robust barrier that sheds moderate moisture and is scratch resistant.

Surface Preparation for liquids and aerosols

SURFACE PREPARATION: All surfaces must be clean and free of all dirt, loose rust, oil, grease, wax, soap, loose paint, and any other matter.

Previously Painted Areas: Scuff surface with 240-280 grit sandpaper or scuff pad. Soak the surface and keep it wet while agitating with POR-15 Cleaner Degreaser. Rinse with clean water and let completely dry. Next soak the surface and keep it wet with POR-15 Metal Prep for 20-45 minutes. Thoroughly rinse with water and let the surface completely dry. If using an air compressor to dry, make sure to have an inline coalescing filter to stop moisture and oil in the line.

Bare Steel, Alloys, or Aluminum: Scuff surface with 180-240 grit sandpaper or scuff pad. Soak the surface and keep it wet while agitating with POR-15 Cleaner Degreaser. Rinse with clean water and let completely dry. Next soak the surface and keep it wet with POR-15 Metal Prep for 20-45 minutes (use POR-15 Alloy Prep for the Top Coat Clear). Thoroughly rinse with water and let the surface completely dry. If using an air compressor to dry, make sure to have an inline coalescing filter to stop moisture and oil in the line.

For Next Level Corrosion Protection: Apply POR-15 Rust Preventive Coating to bare metal after POR-15 Cleaner Degreaser and POR-15 Metal Prep applications. If using an air compressor to dry, make sure to have an inline coalescing filter to stop moisture and oil in the line. Note: Only opaque colors are recommended for the POR-15 Rust Preventive. When the POR-15 Rust Preventive coating is dry to the touch but is still tacky (has a finger drag), it is the best time to apply a second coat and/or the topcoat. If the Rust Preventive Coating fully cures, gently scuff it with 280-320 grit. Take care not to penetrate down to metal surface. Apply two thin covering coats of POR-15 Top Coat over the POR-15 Rust Preventive Coating. (*Only Opaque Topcoat colors have enough UV protection for the Rust Preventive Coating)

Directions for Liquid formulas (Brush, roller, and HVLP)

LIQUID APPLICATION: Follow surface prep directions. Stir POR-15 Top Coat with a drill and paddle until all solids at the bottom of the container are dissolved, before and during use; DO NOT SHAKE. Using a pouring spout, dispense a portion into a separate container and seal the can at once, keeping the lid and grooves clean. Do not paint out of the can. Apply POR-15 Top Coat in two to three thin covering coats. Thin with POR-15 Reducer Solvent up to 10% if necessary.

Brush and Roller: Use an all-purpose short nap phenolic core roller. Use when surface to be painted, container, and outside temperature, are between 60˚F and 90˚F (21˚C and 32˚C).

HVLP Spray: Use 25-30 lbs (170Kpa-210pa) pressure for normal gloss.

DRY TIME: It cures to touch in 30-90 minutes. Depending on ambient temperature and humidity, a second or third coat can be applied when the previous coat is dry; Usually after 2 hours. The second or third coats can be applied up to 72 hours after the previous coat(s) without scuffing. POR-15 Top Coat can take 3-4 days to reach maximum hardness, and longer in temperatures below 55°F (15°C).

CLEANUP: Do not put leftover paint back into can. Clean all equipment immediately after use with an appropriate gun cleaner or POR-15 Reducer Solvent. Flush out all fluid lines and carefully clean pressure pots. Use clean solvent only. It is also good practice to periodically clean the spray tip or the fluid tip/air cap combination during the course of the working day.

Directions for Aerosol Spray formulas

AEROSOL APPLICATION: Follow surface prep directions. Protect surrounding areas from spray mist. Use when surface to be painted, spray container, and outside temperature, are between 60˚F and 90˚F (21˚C and 32˚C). Shake can at least one minute before and occasionally during use. Makes sure the ball inside the can is moving freely when shaken. Spray surface with steady even strokes, at a distance of 6 to 12 inches. Several light coats give a better finish than one heavy coat.

DRY TIME: It cures to touch in 30-60 minutes, depending on ambient temperature and humidity. Second coat can be applied after 1 hour and up to 24 hours without scuffing. POR-15 Top Coat can take 3-4 days to reach max hardness, and longer in temperatures below 55°F (15°C).

CLEANUP: To prevent clogs in spray nozzle, hold can upside down and spray until clear gas appears. Completely empty cans may be recycled or disposed of with regular trash. Dispose of partially empty cans responsibly. DO NOT puncture, incinerate or compact.
