To minimize over-spray/dry-spray, use good spray techniques including the proper pressure and correct tip size. lf conditions are windy or nearby materials cannot tolerate any over-spray, the applicator must provide proper masking to stop the intumescent coating from drifting onto neighboring surfaces lntumescent coating - maintenance and repair The fire protection properties of the intumescent coating remain in place as long as the irttegrity of the ilttunrescerrt coating is intact. lt is not requirecl to perform rrrairrlerrarrce inspections. ln the event that the substrate has been damaged or altered, or the intumescent coating has been compromised, the coating must be repaired. lntumescent coating - storage Shelf life - 12 months (when kept at recommended storage conditisns and in original unopened containers) Storage - Store indoors in a dry environment between 40'F - 100"F (4"C - 3S"C) Packaging - 5 Gallon Pails Shipping weight - 64 lbs per 5 Gallon Pait r,r/ r/t/trt/ ff .1;t1r rr lf lr r r r.' r I llrl;." r -t I rfi 't7 'Bl\ FlameOFF'Application Guide Dry Film Thickness (DFT) Ory titr thickness is a measure of the thickness of an applied coating once it has cured. lt should be checked once the product has dried, using a calibrated Dry Film Thickness gauge. lf a decorative topcoat is to be applied, the DFT must be read prior to the topcoat application. DFT must be taken on the primer coating prior to applying the intumescent paint. The DFT of the primer must be recorded and subtracted when calculating the DFT of the intumescent paint. DFT readings should be taken every 12 inches. For complex members, please consult the AWCI Technical Manual 12-B, "Standard Practice for the Testing and lnspection of Field Applied Thin-Film lntumescent Fire-Resistive Materials." lntumescent coating - dry film acceptance The average thickness of the intumescent coating should be equal to, or greater than the required thickness. The thickness at any given point must not be less than or equal to a 10% variance of the required dry film thickness. lf the intumescent coating has a variance greater than 10%, additional intumescent coating should be applied to achieve the required dry film thickness.

Therefore, to convert between Wet and Dry Film Thickness, use the following: DFT=WFTx0.70 WFT=DFT/0.70 www.fl a meoffc oa ti n g s. co m 11 -S|\ FlameOFF'Apptication Guide Application Thickness Required paint thickness is given in Mils as Wet Film Thickness (WFT)or Dry Film Tlrickness (DFT) and is dependent upon the substrate it is applied to, and the desired fire rating. WFT is measured during application process. DFT is measured after the coating has cured. Mils and Microns . Mil - A unit of measurement in the English system that is measured in thousandths of an inch. (i.e., .001 = one thousandth of an inch or 1.0 mil) . Micron - A unit of measurement in the metric system that is equal to one thousandth of a millimeter. FlameOFF@Coatings,lnc. uses the Mil measurement. We have added tlre following calculations to help our international applicators compute the correct mil thickness. Exact conversion Mils to Microns: (number of mils) x25.4 (i.e., 30 mil = 762 microns) Microns to Mils: (number of microns) I 25.4 (i.e.,762 microns = 30 mil) Wet Film Thickness (WFT) Wet film thickness is a measure of the thickness of wet paint or liquid based coating, and should be monltored durlng appllcatlon process using one of the following: . Wet film gauge; or . Calculated method with checks. Measuring : Wet tlil Thickness 1 A wet film gauge Js required to be 100% precise. lt is recommended that you check the wet film thickness every three feet to ensure 100% accuracy. This method is used to determine how much product is needed for a specific area. Calculate the square footage (SO/FT) and perforrn the calculation with the required dry film thickness (DFT) and this will determine how much paint needs to be applied to a specific section. This can cut down on the amount of wet film thickness checks. *5 ;-!!i --,i 2 3 I :, Coating :substrate www, flanrcoffc oa filrgr-crlnr 10 _ 'B\ FlameOFF-Application Guide lntumescent coating - mixing Mixing - Power stirring is required to thoroughly mix the intumescent coating- The intumescent coating should be a "uniform, smooth and creamy" consistency. Hand-held mixers are recommended to be used with a slotted drywall paddle or Jiffy mixer blade. 2 to 3 minutes of mixing is recommended' Mixer - Use 112" eleclric or air driven drill with a slotted paddle mixer (300 rpm under load). Thinning - Do not thin Job-site downtime Job-Site downtime may occur when other trades are in the building, or between application coats. lf this occurs, immerse the tip of the gun in water and cover the open product pail that is being applied. For extended downtime, it may be necessary to run water through the pump and hose. lf a skin occurs on top of the intumescent coating in the bucket, REMOVE PAINT SKIN. DO NOT MIX OR TRY TO SPRAY. This will cause tip clogs and will result in a undesirable finish. Applying multiple coats of intumescent paint Multiple coats of intumescent paint are usually necessary to achieve the required Dry Film Thickness (DFT). The thickness per coat is based on the applicator's experience, application equipment, and environmental conditions. Example:An experienced applicator may be able to achieve the smooth finish by applying 45 mils wet while the inexperienced applicator may only be able to achieve 20 wet. APPLICATION AND COAIS ARE BASED ON EXPERIENCE Iwww.fl a me offc oati ng s.co m 'tBr\ FlanreOFFApplfcatfon Gufde Application Methods Recommended Application Methods FlameOFF@ Coatings recommends that our intumescent paint be applied with an airless paint sprayer or paint brush. We do not recommend application by paint roller. Brush Advantages - Low cost and often the most suitable way to paint complex objects. Works well for rough surfaces. Recommended thickness per coat - 10 MiIWFT . Use a good quality brush that's as large as possible for the job. . Don't use a new brush for the final coat, they tend to shed bristles. . Use a criss cross motion; brush from side to side and then up and down. . Continue until the paint is evenly distributed over the area. . Angle the brush at a 45" angle to minimize brush marks. . During application the paint will start to dry on the brush. lt is recommended that you clean the brush every 30 minutes to keep good painting consistency. Spray equipment Advantages - Quickest application method, cuts down on labor. Delivers smooth, uniform coats. Recommended thickness per coat - 20-45 Mil WFT, depending on applicator experience. Airless Paint Sprayer - Use 1.0 gal. per minute electric airless (minimum) to provide an operating pressure of 3,000 p.s.i. (210 kg/cm2). **Dn*nrrn r^^lr ^^l^h^.

Read labels carefully and follow all application instructions. Eyes - Safety goggles, face shield, visor, or safety spectacles. This is used to prevent paint particles and droplets from entering the eyes. Breathing - Short term filtering mask can be used when painting. For full time spraying or all day application work, we recommend a full air feed face-mask. This will prevent breathing paint dust, and keep paint particles from entering the lungs. Hands- Latex gloves, armlets, or leather gloves are recommended. Hearing - Hearing protection is recommended to protect inner ear from loud or constant noise levels from spray equipment. Ear muffs or ear plugs are recommended. Body - Overalls or coveralls are recommended to protect clothing from overspray. To ensure personal safety wear suitable protective clothing www. fl a me offc o a ti ngs. com 6 -SlI\ Flame(JFF"Apptication Gaide Temperature lntumescent coatings are very different from normal paint. Temperature and humidity play a very import role during the application process. Temperature and humidity can cause a product to not adhere to the substrate adequately, and can cause problems with the curing process. Temperature Drying/curing times may require adjustment depending on the conditions of the job site. Use the following as a guide: . Job-site conditions should be at least 45"F (10' ")'. The ambient temperature of the substrate should be at least 45"F (10' C); . We recommend that the temperature be maintained within the range given for 48 hours after the final coat has been applied; and . lf necessary, the GC or building owner may have to provide an enclosure to heat and maintain the proper installation temperatures. Remember that intumescent properties change with temperature and humidity variation Application during low temperatures will cause the coating to thicken. lf applied in very low temperatures, the intumescent coating will not cure, resulting in poor adhesion between coats and an unsatisfactory appearance. Job-site temperatures can be very hot in the summer months. There are no maximum temperature conditions. However, take caution when applying in higher temperatures, as they can cause the intumescent coating to dry/cure very quickly if the coating is applied at large Mil thicknesses. This can result in visible application marks. lf applying the coating in direct sunlight, this can cause a "flash dry" on the outer skin and trap the moist coating on the inside, which can cause a mud crack appearance. FlameOFF@Coatings,lnc.recommends that in very high temperaiures, apply the coating in small mil thicknesses to prevent flash drying from occurring. 5www.fl a meoffc oa ti ng s. c o m '*Bltr FlanreOFF"Application Guide Planning the lntumescent Application General intumescent considerations Plan the whole Job completely The total process includes: .

Our intumescent products and operations are audited and listed by a certified third party lab to ensure that our products pertorm as expected in providing building fire safety. lntumescent paints can be used on steel, gypsum, and wood, in walls and ceilings that need to be rated with ASTM E-119, for t hour and 2 hour fire rated standards. FlameOFF@ intumescent paints are typically applied by pressure spray system. The product is water-based and non-toxic. FlameOFF's@ lntumescent pproducts are fully LEED accredited. lntumescent coatings are exceedingly complex coating materials. They need to perform all of the functions that other protective surface coatings do {adhesion, hardness, toughness, corrosion resistance, etc.) and then, when exposed to sufficient heat, they need to transform and expand to form a thick, insulating, carbonaceous char. On top of this, we require that our products deliver an attractive, smooth, architectural finish! Thank You for your purchase of our intumescent paint.
