The preferred methods of application of Ardrox® 396/1 E8 are by spraying, brushing or swabbing. It may, however, also be applied by dipping, in which case tanks should be constructed with a sloping or conical bottom so that any water which collects may be easily run off.

Ardrox® 396/1 E8 is also available in an aerosol pack for ease of application. Extension tubes are supplied with the aerosols so that the product may be sprayed into crevices, recesses etc.

For optimum protection, film thickness should be > 5 µm.

Ardrox® 396/1 E8 may be removed with white spirit, Ardrox® 9PR50 or Ardrox® 5503.

A slight precipitation may occur during storage; it is therefore recommended to thoroughly mix Ardrox® 396/1 E8 before use.

When used in the prescribed manner Ardrox® 396/1 E8 will have no deleterious effect on most materials of construction or good quality paint schemes. Some types of rubber, however, will swell after prolonged contact. Mild steel is a suitable material for tank construction
