He said that the special surface preparation involves simply pressure washing the surface, and applying a “tie-coat” primer. According to Scott Derr Painting, our intermediate coat of paint is a “Recoatable Epoxy Primer” which is the same as a “tie-coat”. Andrew Harper Cell (214) 886-6666 From: Eric T.

We need to see if any “special surface preparation” is required prior to topcoating. From: Andrew Harper [mailto:AHarper@Austin-Ind.com] Sent: Tuesday, March 29, 2011 11:12 AM To: Eric T.

In review of the Carbozinc 858 epoxy zinc primer technical data sheet, the data sheet states that the Carbozinc 858 may be topcoated with epoxies and urethanes. Therefore, Sherwin-Williams Recoatable Epoxy primer should be compatible with the Carbozinc 858 epoxy zinc primer as long as it is applied within the recoat window of the Carbozinc 858 zinc rich primer as stated on the technical data sheet. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or clarifications.

We just want to give the owner some piece of mind that your Sherwin Williams Recoatable Epoxy Primer and High Solids Polyurethane Topcoat is compatible. Thanks for looking into this for me.
