Application Instructions

Apply 60-60A according to the manufacturer’s written instructions. Use applicators and techniques best suited to the type of foam being applied. Do not paint over dirt, rust, scale, grease, moisture, scuffed surfaces, or conditions detrimental to forming a durable paint film. Paint surfaces behind movable equipment and furniture the same as similar exposed surfaces.

60-60A may be applied in a single coat. 60-60A will resist sagging and dripping when applied at thicknesses up to 35 mils WFT.

Mil thickness and coverage rates will vary from 14 wet mils at 115 square feet per gallon to 20 wet mils at 80 square feet per gallon. Check ER-596 for the correct mil thickness and square feet per gallon. The medallion method was utilized during testing to measure dry film thickness. Actual coverage rates will vary based on surface texture, overspray, and transfer losses. Please allow a minimum of 5-10% overspray and loss rate when estimating and applying the coating. The application rate should be adjusted for surface texture, overspray, and miscellaneous losses. Refer to SPFA-121 “Spray Polyurethane Foam Estimating Reference Guide” for specific determination methods.

The use of an overlapping technique is recommended to ensure that a uniform amount of coating is applied onto the foam surface. The applicator should adjust the spray pattern and technique so that each application stroke overlaps by 30%


Checklist Before You Start:

  • ✓ Humidity – Is the relative humidity less than 65%?
  • ✓ Consistency – Are the contents thoroughly mixed?
  • ✓ Surface – Are all substrates clean, dry, and sound?
  • ✓ Measurement – Wet film gauge on-site?
  • ✓ Need help – Call 713-668-4291
  • ✓ Correct spray tips – 525-527 recommended
  • ✓ Airless sprayer with minimum .07 GPM
  • ✓ Power drill & mixer of appropriate size
  • ✓ Work lights for tight areas
