                TG No. 144                                                               August 1987

                PRECAUTIONS:

                           1.  Surface skin must be absolutely clean (free from oil,      dust).
                           2.  Equipment shall be adequately grounded. Clean spray gun,
                               brushes and equipment Immediately after use with thinner
                               specified by the manufacturer.
                           3.  The coating will not adhere to wash primer that has blushed or
                               that has been applied when the'relative humidity is below 35
                               percent (see MIL-C-22751).
                           4.  Mix only that amount which can be used in 1 day.
                           5.  Epoxy-polyamide coatings build up thickness readily.
                               Thick films are detrimental for good adhesion.
                           6.  Epoxy-polyamide coating f;om one vendor shall never be mixed
                               with that of another.
                           7.  Components are not Interchangeable: for example Component I
                               of one color may not be used with Component II of another
                               color.
                           8.  Component I or Component II from one manufacturer shall not be
                               mixed with products of another manufacturer.
                           9.  This coating is intended for use only over primer MIL-P-23377.

                THINNING DIRECTIONS:

                This Is a two package coating which is prepared by adding I part Component 11
                to I part Component I slowly while stirring. Each component shall be mixed
                before combining. The manufacturer shall specify the volume of MIL-T-81774'
                thinner to be employed.

                The information below is Intended for the label for clear epoxy coating
ackages only:

                ALUMINUM EPOXY COATING:

                Prepare by incorporating 16 ounces of aluminum paste conforming to TT-P-320,
                Type II, Class A, in I gallon of clear mixed epoxy-polyamide with the aid of
                thinner, non-photochemically reactive thinner as recommended by the
                manufacturer. Aluminum powder of comparable fineness, purity, and physical
                properties may be employed in the production of aluminized finishes. When
                powder is used, the amount shall be equal to that contained in the amount of
                aluminum content of the aluminum paste specified.
