Technical Data
Jotamastic 87 Aluminium
Product description
A two component surface tolerant, abrasion resistant, high solids polyamine cured epoxy mastic coating which may be
applied in high film thickness. Available with different hardeners for varying substrate temperatures, Standard (Std) and
Wintergrade (WG). This product is a part of a complete system which is certified not to spread flames.
Recommended use
Steel where blast cleaning may not be possible, and on hydrojetted surfaces still being moist where gloss retention is of
minor importance. Suitable for use as a dielectric shield around impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) anodes on
ships. Can be used alone or in combination with various systems of primers and topcoats. Gives excellent corrosion
protection both in salt and fresh water. If exposed to sunlight chalking may occur.
For application in water ballast tanks at newbuilding stage in accordance with PSPC (IMO Res. MSC 82/W), see the
"Application procedure for water ballast tanks - Jotamastic 87".

Surface preparation
All surfaces should be clean and free from contamination. The surface should be assessed and treated in accordance
with ISO 8504.
Bare steel
Cleanliness: Power tool cleaning to min. St 2, mill scale free (ISO 8501-1:2007). Improved surface treatment (blast
cleaning to Sa 2) will improve the performance. In case of waterjetting the flash rust degree shall not exceed M
(moderate) in SSPC and NACE standards for waterjetted surfaces.
Shopprimed steel
Clean, dry and undamaged approved shopprimer.
Coated surfaces
Clean, dry and undamaged compatible primer. Contact your local Jotun office for more information. For maintenance
UHPWJ to WJ2 (NACE No.5/SSPC-SP 12) or Power tool cleaning to min. St 2 for rusted areas
Other surfaces
The coating may be used on other substrates. Please contact your local Jotun office for more information.
Condition during application

The temperature of the substrate should be minimum +10C (Std) (-5C in WG) and at least 3C above the dew point of
the air, temperature and relative humidity measured in the vicinity of the substrate. Good ventilation is required in
confined areas to ensure proper drying.
Hydrojetting of steel surface makes a wet surface. The surrounding air must have a relative humidity not exceeding 85
%. Before painting the surface shall not be glossy with moisture, but can have a patchy appearance.

Application methods
Spray
Use airless spray (thin 10%)
Brush
Recommended for stripe coating and small areas, care must be taken to achieve the specified dry
film thickness.
Roller
May be used for small areas but not recommended for first primer coat, however when using roller
application care must be taken to apply sufficient material in order to achieve the specified dry film
thickness.

Filter
Check to ensure that filters are clean.
Note
* The temperature of the mixture of base and curing agent is recommended to be

at least 15C, otherwise extra solvent may be required to obtain correct viscosity.
* Too much solvent results in lower sag resistance and slower cure.
* If extra solvent is necessary, this should be added after mixing of the two
components.
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

Provided the surface is free from chalking and other contamination prior to application, there is normally no
overcoating time limit. Best intercoat adhesion occurs, however, when the subsequent coat is applied before
preceding coat has cured. If the coating has been exposed to direct sunlight for some time, special attention must
be paid to surface cleaning and mattening/removal of the surface layer in order to obtain good adhesion.
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.
