Tduct: BITUMASTIC BLACK SOLUTION
DESC~:"TION:
USE:
A serf-priming protective coating formulated with refined tars, spedal
solvents and selected ingredients. It has a consistency of thin fluid
paint or varnish and does not contain added fillers or fibers.
FOR INDUSTRIAL USE ONLY. NOT INTENDED FOR USE IN
THE HOME.
Recommended as a general maintenance coatin~ to rovidc a water-
proof finish for metal or concrete. It is dem e~ for use under
moderate corrosive conditions as experienced in ~; fumes of indust-
rial acids, alkalis and chemicals.
Do not use on the interiors of potable water tanks or containers as
Bitumastic Black Solution will impart taste to the water.
When exposed to sunliSht and effects of weathering, the coatin
should be ed approx:mately 2 to 4 weeks then topcoated wit~
Bituplastic ~go¢. 28 or Bituplastic No. 33 or Bitugloss Aluminum Paint.
This minimizes weathering effects that result in alligatoring or crack-
ing of coal tar films.

Thinning is not normally required except in cold weather or for
spray application when 1/2 pint of Koppers Thinner 1000 per gallon
is the maximum amount allowable.
Do not use ordinary paint thinners, mineral spirits, gasoline or tur-
pentine as they will destroy the material.
Use Koppers Thinher 1000 for cleaning brushes, rollers or spray
equipment.
All surfaces must be completely dry before applying Bitumastic
Black Solution.
Do not apply over other coatings unless well weathered. If in doubt,
try a test patch first.
Remove aH dust, dirt, loose mill scale, welding scale, rust, paint,
residual acids, alkalis or other foreign material by sand or grit
blasting (NACE-3 or SSPC-SP6), hand or power brushing and/or
scraping. Degrease using Koppers Thinner 2000. Use Koppers
Thinner 2000C where air regulatory version is required.
Remove from concrete or masonry surfaces aH dirt, loose sand and
laitance.
Metal or concrete - none.
Brush, roller, dipping or conventional spray. Natural bristle brushes
or phenolic cored rollers only should be used. Do not apply to
surfaces that will be exposed to rain before the coating is dry or on
surfaces with temperatures below 40°F.
dry: 400°F.
wet: 100°F.

PRECAUTIONS
(Continued):
Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Perchloroethylene or its
vapors may form corrosive fumes in contact with flames or hot
glowing surfaces. Avoid breathing of vapor or spray mist. Avoid
contact with eyes and skin. Use an ultraviolet barrier cream on ex-
posed skin. Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep closures tight and
upright to prevent leakage. Keep container closed when not in use.
In case of spillage, absorb and dispose of in accordance with local
applicable regulations. Do not take internally.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
Use Only With Adequate Ventilation.
In tanks and confined areas, use adequate forced ventilation con-
tinuously during application and drying. Use fresh air masks, clean
protective clothing and explosion-proof equipment. Prevent flames,
sparks, welding and smoking.
FIRST AID: In case of skin contact, wash thoroughly with soap and
water; for eyes, flush immediately with plenty of water for 15
minutes and call a physician. If sunburn occurs, treat sympto-
matically. If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If swallowed, CALL A
PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY.
IN CASE OF FIRE: Use dry chemical, foam, water fog or CO2. Cool
closed containers with water.
