MANUFACTURER Viking Paints, Inc.
DESCRIPTION ECC-1400° is a superior, high temperature, coating. It was conceived and formulated specially for high temperature environments. When properly applied it will not flake, discolor, or promote rusting. It has been extensively dyno and field tested to 1400° Fahrenheit with excellent results.
BASIC USES Internal combustion engine exhaust systems pipe coatings, fire place mantles, BBQ grills, space heaters, and other environments where high temperatures cause discoloring, rusting, flaking, etc.

SURFACE PREPARATION For new steel surfaces: wipe down parts to be coated with a quality, mid temperature lacquer thinner (REVMASTER® #1782). Allow to dry.

APPLICATION

Conventional spray or electrostatic spray equipment.

***Note - Indicate which will be used at the time of ordering.

Apply just enough paint to achieve coverage in one coat by using a single pass 50% overlap spray pattern. This puts on 2 mils (.002) of paint (wet film thickness) which dries down to .6 mils (.0006) after solvent evaporation. Multiple coats of ECC-1400° will induce blistering and flaking. The best way to be absolutely sure the maximum dry film thickness is not exceeded is to purchase a dry film thickness meter. An excellent product is available from E.T.G. Products, Asoma Instruments 1-716-629-8855. The model number is SN-2183.
COVERAGE Applying a 2 mil (.002) film, ECC-1400° will cover approximately 800 square feet per gallon.
CURE SCHEDULE Curing should be done no sooner than 24 hours after the last coat has been applied. This will assure that solvent is no longer present in coating. Curing may be accomplished by the inherent heat of operation. For proper curing of coated surfaces, ECC-1400° should be brought up to a temperature of approximately 400-500'F and maintained there for 30-40 minutes, then allowed to cool to ambient air temperature. Coated surfaces will then be ready to place into full service at a maximum operating temperature up to 1400° Fahrenheit. Some odor and smoke may evolve, which is a natural part of the curing process.

WARRANTY  The manufacturer warrants all materials to be free from defects and will replace any material proven to be defective when applied according to our specifications -- at no costs -- within a period of one year. No other warranties are implied or intended.
CAUTIONS N/A
THINNING INSTRUCTIONS Thin ECC-1400° approximately 10 to 15% with REVMASTER® #1782 or a quality, mid temperature lacquer thinner.
LIMITATIONS DO NOT attempt to cover score marks, etc. by loading on ECC-1400°. Doing so will only lead to blistering or premature failure of the film when it is heated to high temperatures. Apply only one thin to medium continuous coat of film - just enough to get a uniform film covering the surface. This is VERY IMPORTANT in order to prevent blistering or failure at high temperatures. DO NOT RE-COAT PREVIOUSLY PAINTED ITEMS!
