Mobility

Mobility: Vapours are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Vapours may form explosive mixtures with air. Prevent the creation of flammable or explosive concentrations of vapour in air and avoid vapour concentrations higher than the occupational exposure limits. Additionally, the product should only be used in areas where all naked flames and other sources of ignition have been excluded. Electrical equipment should be protected to the appropriate standard. To dissipate static electricity during transfer, earth the drum and connect to the receiving container with a bonding strap. Operators should wear anti-static footwear and clothing, and floors should be of the conducting type. Keep the container tightly closed. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. No sparking tools should be used. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials and ignition sources. Keep away from: OXIDIZING AGENTS, strong alkalis, strong acids. No smoking. Prevent unauthorised access. Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Do not empty into drains.

PPG Sigma Thinner 90-58 is a specially formulated solvent designed for various uses in the painting process. Primarily, it serves to dilute PPG Sigma paints, ensuring optimal viscosity for application, particularly when using spray equipment. This thinner aids in achieving an even finish by enhancing the flow and levelling of the paint, which is particularly beneficial in cooler temperatures or humid conditions where paint might thicken. In addition to its dilution properties, PPG Sigma Thinner 90-58 is highly effective for cleaning painting tools such as brushes and rollers, helping to maintain their performance and longevity. It is also ideal for surface preparation, as it effectively removes grease, dirt, and other contaminants, promoting better adhesion of the paint to the substrate. Using this thinner helps ensure that the final result is not only visually appealing but also durable, making it a key component in achieving professional-quality results in various painting applications.
