Painting for beehives (grey) 20KG

01 · PREPARATION

Surface preparation determines adhesion.

Remove rust, poorly adhering paint, and deteriorated areas by sanding or the appropriate method. The surface must be firm, clean, dry, and grease-free. Shake thoroughly before and during application.

02 · COVERAGE

One or two coats, depending on the substrate

The data sheet recommends 25–30 µm dry-film thickness and one or two coats. The theoretical coverage is 8–10 m²/L; porosity, texture, and application losses reduce the actual surface area. It can be applied with an airless sprayer, spray gun, brush, or roller.

03 · DRYING

Drying times refer to 20 °C

Touch dry in 20 minutes, fully dry in 60 minutes, and recoating after 3 hours at 20 °C. Cold, humidity, insufficient thickness, or ventilation will extend these times; do not return the hive to service solely by the clock if the coating is still soft.

For handling, storage, incompatibilities, and first aid, always refer to the current labelling and safety data sheet.
