4.a Primer. Mix the primer with a high shear mixer (such as a jiffy mixer), according to the manufacturer's recommendations to a smooth, lump free consistency. Do not use paddle mixers or paint shakers. Mix in the original containers. Continue mixing until the metallic powder or pigment is in suspension. Ensure that the coating solids that might have settled to the bottom of the container are thoroughly dispersed. Strain the mixture through 30 mesh to 60 mesh screen openings to remove large particles. Equip pa int containers with a mechanical agitator so the mixture is in motion throughout the application period.
4.b Subsequent Coats. Mix each subsequent coat to achieve and to maintain a homogeneous mixture.

temperature of the air, paint, or metal is below 40F, and at no time above or below that described in the technical data sheet; when the air is misty; or when conditions are otherwise unsatisfactory. Do not paint when relative humidity is above the limit according to the manufacturer’s recommendations . Do not paint damp or frosted surfaces or surfaces hot enough to cause the paint to blister, to produce a porous paint film, or to cause the vehicle to separate from the pigment. Paint only when the surface temperature is at least 5F above the dewpoint. Determine the dewpoint with the use of a psychrometer and psychrome
