APPLICATIONS & BENEFITS
RiteThane RT DTMU is designed to be applied by airless spray with
0.013-0.017” tips at 3000-5000 psi. During application, the substrate
temperature must be 5 degrees above the dew point. Condensation
due to substrate temperatures below the dew point can result in flash
rusting on prepared steel and negatively impact adhesion to the
substrate.
