TECTYL 915W40E Surface Preparation
The maximum performance of TECTYL
915W40E can be achieved only when the metal
surfaces to be protected are clean, dry, and free
of rust, oil, and mill scale. It is recommended that the metal substrate
temperature be 50 - 95°F (10 - 35°C) at the time
of product application.
TECTYL 915W40E Application
TECTYL 915W40E is formulated to be used as
supplied. Ensure uniform consistency prior to
use. Continued stirring is generally not required.
If the product thickens due to cold storage or
loss of solvent during use, contact Daubert
Chemical Company. DO NOT THIN TECTYL
915W40E. Incorrect thinning will affect film
build, dry time and product performance. t is recommended that
the ambient and product temperature be 50 - 95°
F (10 - 35°C) at time of application. TECTYL 915W40E should be used as factory
fill and break-in oil for all new and rebuilt
engines. This is a completely operational oil for
current production engines meeting the
requirements of MIL-PRF-21260E and need not
be changed until the first scheduled oil change
specified by engine manufacturer. As a
preservative coating, TECTYL 915W40E is
used to protect engine parts during covered
shipment and indoor storage. TECTYL 915W40E is compatible with
lubricating oils qualified under MIL-PRF-21260E,
MIL-PRF-2104, and MIL-L-46152E.
Removal
TECTYL 915W40E can be removed with TECTYL HPS solvent borne thinner, vapor
degreasing, hot alkaline wash, or low pressure
steam. TECTYL 915W40E can be removed
from fabrics by normal dry cleaning procedures.
Avoid the use of chlorinated or highly aromatic
solvents when removing from painted surfaces,
as these solvents may adversely affect paint.
Caution
Refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet
for health and safety instructions.
Note:
The addition of any product over or under this
coating is not recommended. The use of
additional coatings could result in chemical
incompatibility, thus adversely affecting the
performance of this coating.
