Spray: Prepare surfaces by grit blasting to a clean near white finish, SSC-SP 10/ NACE No. 2. The equipment should be a plural component airless spray unit with a proportioning pump capable of a volume mixing ratio of 3:1. Standard ancillary equipment should include minimum 10 gallon hoppers, static mixers, whip hose, and mastic gun. (Applicator should consult with Denso regarding recommended equipment). A wet on wet spray technique should be used to achieve a minimum thickness of 500 microns. The coating thickness should be measured using a wet film thickness gauge.
Brush: Prepare surfaces by grit blasting to a clean near white finish, SSC-SP 10/ NACENo. 2. Initially stir the base and hardener. Add the hardener to base and mix until a constant color is achieved making sure all sides of container are scraped. Pour mixed material onto surface and brush, trowel or roll to required mil thickness. A wet film thickness gauge shall be used to measure microns thickness. If surface temperature falls below 50°F (10°C), surface must be preheated to achieve cure. Preheat may be achieved with a propane torch or induction coil. Resin and hardener component shall be kept warm, at a minimum of 68°F (20°C), to mix easily.

6.6 Denso and/or the owner’s representative immediatelyupon completion of the work shall make final inspectionof the completed application. Notification of all defectsmust be made within a reasonable time frame fromcompletion of the work to allow for all repairs within theallowed time frame for the project.
6.7 Recoating: if a second coat is required and passes thecure test as described in section 6.3, the surfaces shallbe roughened by sweep blasting. If the coating is soft, nosurface preparation is required.
7.0 Testing (Optional)
7.1 For each spray application a minimum of one platesample coated to the specified DFT and one free filmsample sprayed to a minimum DFT of 100 mils (4 mm)shall be taken. The plate size should beapproximately 4" x 6" x .375" (100 mm x 150 mm x 9.5mm). The plate must be cleaned in accordance withsection 4.0. Both samples should be cured for aminimum of four (4) days at 68°F (20° C) prior totesting.
Please note that cure times are approximate and may vary depending on actual product and ambient temperatures. If product temperature is not the same as pipe surface temperature, the backfill/directional drill time will vary.
Note: Estimates are based on field experience on weld joints with50mm to 75mm cut-back and applied at 500 to 750 microns average.Actual coverage may vary depending on cut-back and mil thickness. N

Pipeline Integrity is rapidly becoming a major factor for pipeline companies in North America. Pipeline companies, by law, must operate safe pipelines and provide documentation to prove that all external corrosion defects are controlled from adversely impacting structural integrity. The cost impact due to a failure is not an option.

coat), and is environmentally safe.Denso manufactures a full line
of Protal liquid coatings to meet the demand of the pipeline industry. Protal liquid coatings are the coatings of choice by owners, oil and gas specifiers and contractors across North America.
With thousands of miles of buried pipelines constructed and coated well over 50 years ago, in many instances, the old coating has gone well past its useful service life. Denso’s Protal 7200 is fast becoming the product of choice for recoating these pipelines in the field.
Recently, Columbia Gulf Transmission selected the Protal 7200 to recoat approximately 2.4 kms of 75 and 90 cm diameter pipe. The project consisted of excavating and exposing the pipe in the ditch and removing the original coal tar epoxy coating. Prior to recoating, the pipe was sandblasted to a near white metal finish, SSPC SP-10 or NACE No. 2 standard. After the surface was prepared, the Protal 7200 was applied using plural component spray equipment. The coating was applied by the Mears Group at an average thickness of 685 – 865 microns in one coat. The tack-free time was approximately 30 minutes

Protal History Denso has been developing and manufacturing pipeline coatings since 1929. In 1990 Denso pioneered the first 100% solids epoxy used for girth welds and rehabilitation of pipelines in North America. Protal 5900 was the first high build, fast cure and environmentally safe coating available in the market. In 1994, continued research and development lead to the introduction of the Protal 7000 Series. This product series featured higher build and faster curing characteristics. Our most recent development is our Protal 7200 Series, which leads the industry in cathodic disbondment results and curing times. Since the introduction of our Protal Liquid Coatings, Denso has sold over 1,000,000 litres of coating.
