F-717 and F-719 are synthetic rubber coatings that exhibit the ultimate in durability and strength in the foam coatings industry. These coatings can be applied to polyethylene, EVA, as well as to many plastics such as ABS.

Previously referred to as PDC® 11 coatings, these have been in use in the medical industry for over a decade and exhibit excellent abrasion, puncture, moisture and urine resistance. Typical applications are foam positioning devices, buoys, sporting goods and padding, packaging, seat cushions, boat and dock bumpers. F-717 is an excellent choice for protecting polyethylene, polypropylene, EVA and mini-cell closed cell foam used for foam packaging and case inserts, preventing FOD.

Surface Preparations

N/A MIX WELL BEFORE USE.
All surfaces to be coated must be free of any oils, dust or loose foam particles

USE ADEQUATE VENTILATION.

Spraying

N/A Pressure pot/conventional sprayers may be used. Dilute with recommended thinners 20-50% as needed. Gently mix before spraying. Apply wet, overlapping coats holding gun 6"-12" from surface using a 4"-6" pattern. Allow 10-20 minutes dry time before applying additional coats to desired thickness.

Recommended Equipment and Settings

N/A Binks® Model 2100 Gun
Nozzle: 66SS
Cap: 66SD (20-30% dilution) for heavier build up
Needle: 565
Material: 20-25 psi
Atomization: 15-25 psi
Dilution: as needed
Clean up: Toluene, Naphtha or Xylene

Industrial/commercial airless equipment may be used. Use as described above.

Tip size: 0.011-0.019
Pressure: As needed
Dilution: 20-30%

Dipping

N/A Dilute with recommended thinners up to 30% as needed. Gently mix before each use. Do not introduce air bubbles. Insert item 1" every 5 seconds. Remove at same rate. Allow 30-40 minutes (dry to the touch) before applying additional coats to desired thickness.

Brushing

N/A Dilute with recommended thinners up to 30% as needed. Gently mix before each use. Apply wet, overlapping coats using a soft natural bristle brush. Allow 10-20 minutes (dry to the touch) dry time before applying additional coats to desired thickness.

Hints

N/A Recommended thinners: Toluene, Naphtha or Xylene. A dry film thickness of 12-15 mils is recommended for best results. Approximate dry film thickness per coat: dipping 6-8 mils; brushing, 4-5 mils; spraying, 2-5 mils. Allow overnight drying whenever possible. When using a dip tank, allow 6" minimum from fluid surface to tank top to avoid "skinning over". Avoid excessive air movement, heat or humidity. Always use proper ventilation and protection.
