Boat preparation & finishing

Air temperature

5°C to 35°C

Surface temperature

5°C to 35°C

Air and surface must be 5–35°C; keep the paint itself at 15–35°C. Apply in dry, well-ventilated conditions. Avoid late-evening application because overnight condensation can reduce gloss. Recoat and drying intervals depend on temperature; use the data-sheet table. A fixed rain-free interval is not specified. For above-waterline use; not for permanently immersed surfaces.

Air temperature

5°C to 35°C

Surface temperature

5°C to 35°C

Air and surface must be 5–35°C; keep the paint itself at 10–35°C. Apply in dry, well-ventilated conditions. Allow for temperature-dependent drying before walking on the deck: approximately 4 days at 5°C, 3 days at 15°C, 2 days at 23°C, or 1 day at 35°C. Follow the separate recoat table. A fixed rain-free interval is not specified. Not for permanently immersed surfaces.

Air temperature

5°C to 35°C

Surface temperature

No higher than 35°C

Air and paint must be 5–35°C; surface maximum is 35°C and the prepared surface must be dry and clean. The current Canadian sheet gives an inconsistent dew-point margin, printed as 1°C/5°F above dew point; confirm the required margin with Interlux before coating. It is not an absolute surface minimum. Immersion wait varies: 15 days at 5°C, 78 hours at 10°C, or 24 hours at 25–35°C. Follow the separate recoat table; no fixed rain-free period is stated.

Air temperature

5°C to 30°C

Surface temperature

No higher than 35°C

Air and paint must be 5–30°C; surface maximum is 35°C and the prepared surface must be dry and clean. The current Canadian sheet prints an inconsistent dew-point margin of 1°C/5°F above dew point; confirm the required margin with Interlux before coating. It is not an absolute surface minimum. Wait before immersion for 78 hours at 10°C or 24 hours at 25–35°C; obtain guidance for colder conditions. Follow the separate recoat table. No fixed rain-free period is stated.

Air temperature

15°C to 35°C

Surface temperature

10°C to 35°C

Air must be 15–35°C; wood surface and product must be 10–35°C. Wood moisture must be below 18%. Do not coat within 3°C of the dew point, in wet weather, or in direct sunlight. Allow at least 24 hours between coats and follow the specified coating system. A fixed rain-free interval is not stated. The Canadian manufacturer page currently links this North American sheet even though its heading says US.

105 Resin requires a compatible hardener; there is no universal application minimum for the resin alone. North American minimum recommended cure temperatures depend on the selected hardener: 205 Fast 4°C; 206 Slow and 207 Special Clear 16°C; 209 Extra Slow 21°C. Choose the hardener for the job and maintain suitable curing conditions. Surfaces must be clean, dry and prepared; watch for outdoor condensation. Cure time depends on hardener, temperature and film thickness. Check the complete resin/hardener instructions before use.
