RECOMMENDED USES: This product is designed for use on interíor polyurethane foam surfaces
USED BY: Schools, Colleges, Nursing Homes, Child Care Centers, Hospitals, Penal lnstitutions, Apartments, Hotels, Factories,
Warehouses, Retail Stores, Restaurants, Util¡ties, Railroad and otherTransportation Companies, Oil and Chemical
lnstallations, Military lnstallations, and other facilities where fire retardant coatings are required.
Visit our website www.painttoprotect.com to obtain a current matrix of all the manufacturer's foams DC 315 has been tested and
approved over.
lf a coating has not passed a full scale test on a manufacturer's foam it cannot be used on that foam; there are no
except¡ons in the IBC Code!
All coatings must pass a full scale test on each of the manufacturer'stypes of open
and close cell foams. Manufacturers like Bayer, Lapolla, Gaco, Quadrant, lcynene,
Premium, NCFI, SWD, BioBased, etc., must be individually tested to be used as a
protective 15 minute thermal barrier coating. lf a coating is not tested it cannot be
used.
IBC Code requires certified testing to ensure Code Compliance.
Any company can say they are compllant, but can they supply
you proof?
DC 315 viscosity of 15k to 18K CPS assures a one coat
coverage at 20 wet mils. lower viscosity products are a
turo coat application, resulting in double your labor costs.
Soravins DC 3L5 for Maximum Yield: lf this is the first time using DC 315 we suggest testing a pre-measured area to get a feel for
spraying and yield. lf the job requires 20 wet mils or 80 sq. ft. per gallon, than a 5 gallon pail would cover 400 sq. ft. Measure out
one or two 400 sq. ft. sections using pieces of tape, thumbtacks, or canned spray pa¡nt, Use just enough to outline the area you
¡ntend to apply DC 315. We suggest spraying inside the outlined area and taking wet film thickness measurements, with a wet film
gauge across the area, to get a feel for maximum yield.

Temperaturei PROTECI FROM FREEZING DURING SHIPMENT AND STORAGE. DC 315 is a water based coating which will freeze and
become unusable at temperatures below 32" F. Do Not store material at temperatures below 50' F, Do Not AþÞlv DC 315 when
ambient air and substrate temperatures fall below 50' F, Store DC 315 at 50' F to 80" F at all times.
Humiditv: Humidity al 65% or higher requires fans to circulate the air for proper curing. High humidity may require a longer curing
time. Relative humidity is harder to measure than temperature, but it plays an equally important role in how well DC 315 cures.
ldeal conditionsare50-65% relative humidity. Curingtimes are significantly affected when humidity levels exceed 70%.Low relative
humidity can also be a problem, because DC 315 may dry too quickly and lead to blistering on the surface. This is less common in
cooler temperatures. Blistering happens more often when there is too much wind, which can dry DC 315 too quickly, causing dust
deposits and other particles to settle on the surface. For additional information on applying DC 315 in high or low humidity contact
lFTl at 949.975.8588 or email us at ttp@palnttoprotect.com.
Ventllatlon: Please see humidity and temperature guidelines above. We recommend running fans to circulate the air during all
applications especially in high or low humidity. ln most cases free air movement across the surface will suffice. lt is important that
the fans do not blow directly onto the DC 315 coated surfaces before or after application, this may cause the paint to dry too fast
resulting in cracking or delamination. Fans should be used to move air in and out of the work space.
Freezing: lt's also ¡mportant that air temperatures do not drop below freezing conditions in the work space the first night after DC
315 coating has been applied. Curing paint can still contain moisture that will crystallize in sub-freezing temperatures instead of
evaporating out into the atmosphere as it is designed to do. lf temperatures do drop, you won't see a problem until the following
spring. Moisture will remain hidden in the foam over the winter and then migrate into the paint under a warm spring sun, which
may form blisters or delamination.
Surface Preparation: All surfaces to be coated must be clean, cured, firm, dry and free of dust, d¡rt, oil, wax, grease, mildew, and
efflorescence. The quality of any application is only as good as the surface preparat¡on that precedes the application. Our coating
has excellent bonding characteristics and will adhere to most sound, clean, foam surfaces. Verify that the surface ofthe foam is free
of gouges, holes, and exposed cells. Also verify the surface is stable, and not crumbling or deteriorated. lf any such defects are
found make sure to repair them prior to proceeding.
Material Preparation: DC 315 must be thoroushlv míxed before application. Failure to do so will seriouslv comoromise the coatínq's
abiliw to perform. lt is recommended to perform mechanical stirring with a high speed dríll and a paddle appropriate for the size
container you are working from, Contents should be stirred from the bottom up making sure to scrape the bottom and sides with a
paint stick as you go. Contents should be stirred to a creamy consistency with no lumps. Continue mixing for 4-5 minutes per 5
gallon pail. Thínning is usually not needed. lf DC 315 has been exposed to high heat, water may evaporate from the plastic 5 gallon
container. lf the paint level is below 3 inches from the top of the container, add enough water to bring the level back up to within 3
inches from the top in order to ensure proper consistency.
Application Equipment¡ DC 315 is best applied with an airless sprayer to achieve a more consistent mil thickness. ln challenging
areas where an airless sprayer is not practical, DC 315 can be applied by brush or roller (!ee the following recommended sprayer).
¡ Brush: Use top quality polyester/nylon blend brushes, such as those supplied by Purdy, Wooster, or equivalent
r Roller: Use a 3/8" polyester blend nap roller, which will generally work well when applying DC 315
IMPORTANT: PRIMING YOUR AIRIESS HOSE tlNE WITH WATER PRIOR TO USING DC 31s Wltt GREATLY ASSIST lN APPLICAT¡ON
AND YrEr.D (SEE TNSTRUCTTONS ABOVE).
DC 315 VISCOSITY: DC 315 is a variable viscosity coating. When you open DC 315 the unmixed viscosity will be approximately 30,000
- 35,000 CPS. After mixing for five minutes the viscosity will drop 15,000 CPS to approximately 20,000 CPS. lf viscosity is still too high
you can add 8 ounce of water per 5 gallon pail and mix to reduce the viscosity by 4000 - 5000 CPS.
Coveragq: DC 315.MUST BE THQBOUGHTY MIXED FOR 5 MINUTEIPRIOR JO APPLICATION WITH A MECHANICAL MIXËR
Check appropriate test report or ESR for required wet film thickness (WFT) and gallon per square coverage. For example, if the wet
film thickness (WFT) required is L8 mils, the coverage will be 89 sq. ft. per gallon,

How do I use a wet film thickness gauge: A WFT gauge is designed to give the spray applicator immediate mil measurement of the
film build just sprayed. There are several types of WFT gauges available. The most common is the notch gauge (see figure 1). Other
types of gauges available from specialty vendors include the eccentric disk, rolling notch, and the 6 sided.
Technique
¡ When placing the gauge on a freshly painted area, the gauge must be placed at a 90 degree angle to the substrate
and pressed firmly to ensure correct depth. The applicator also needs to be aware of variations in the surface that
may influence the reading. For example, if the surface is not perfectly flat, one direction may give a more accurate
readingthan the other. lnternational Fireproof Technology, Inc. (lFTl) suggests placing metal platesthroughoutthe
surface of the foam, or at least one per L00 sq. ft. These plâtes are available at most hardware stores. lFTl
recommends writing the job date and applicator name on the back of each plate. Measuring WFT on the front side
of the plate will give the most accurate reading. Collect these plates and keep them on file at the job site. They are
a great tool to present your code official or Fire Marshal'
To use the WFT gauge, place the gauge directly on the wet finished part as described above
(see figure 2). The notches will indicate the measured film thickness. For example, if the 18 mil
notch is wet and the 20 notch is dry, then the wet measured thickness is 18 mils,
Curing: Fans should be used to circulate air for the first 24 hours of curing. Do not blow air directly on coating
