Techniques, Inc. (PTI)
Products
Techiques, Inc. (PTI) was founded in 1947 specifically to serve the aviation
industry. PTI has more than 50 years of experience in laboratory controlled
formulation, testing, manufacturing and processing of advanced materials
protection coatings. And, our products are listed in more than 50 major
aerospace or defense contractor customer specifications and meet or exceed
numerous DOD, MIL, MIS, FAA, ORD, Federal (TT) and customer specifications.
When you use a PTI coating to protect and beautify your private aircraft,
you are using the same products that the military, commercial airlines
and aerospace companies have relied upon for years. It is said that a
company is known by the customers it keeps. We are proud to include
among our most valued, and tenured, aerospace and aviation customers
such fine companies as:
Raytheon Hawker Pacific Aerospace Lockheed/Martin GE
Caledonian Boeing Baker Oil and Tool United
Space Alliance Aerojet Sundstrand Aviation GE

PTIs Air
Dry Wash Primer is a polyvinyl butyral zinc chromate formulation
that may be used to prime all plain or plated metallic surfaces.
Priming surfaces with this primer will ensure maximum adhesion of
all bake or air-dry finish coats (including lacquer finish coats).
The finely ground emulsions of zinc chromate pigment, resins and
phosphoric acid hardeners are virtually non-settling. Once applied, PTIsAir
Dry Wash Primer requires no sanding. For the best results follow
the instructions on the technical data sheet. This primer exceeds
the performance standards specified in Department of Defense specification
(DOD) 15328 and Military Specification MIL-8514.
Also
available: PT-1045 Reducer PT-1045 is specially formulated to compliment the PTI Air
Dry Wash Primer
Typical
Uses
PT-402 is
a polyvinyl butyral zinc chromate formulation that may be used to
prime all plain or plated metallic surfaces. Priming surfaces with PT-402 will
ensure maximum adhesion of all bake or air-dry finish coats (including
lacquer finish coats),
Physical
Properties
The
finely ground emuIsions of zinc chromate pigment, resins and phosphoric
acid hardeners are virtually non-settling. Once applied, PT-402 requires
no sanding. PT-402 has a pot life of 8 hours. However, it can be "revitalized" after
an 8 hour period by adding 3 parts of component A
to the unused primer and then recatalyzing the mixture with the correct
proportion of component B. Extreme humidity can affect the bonding of the
coating.
Application
Cleaning
All
parts must be chemically or mechanically cleaned so that they are film
free. Only an industry
recognized method for cleaning should be used.
Mixing
Mix
4 parts of component A to 1 part of component (catalyst) B. When applied
by spraying, thin the 4 to 1 mixture as necessary with 2 to 3 parts PT-
1045 reducer.
Application
Parts
to be primed may he dipped or sprayed. Caution: PT-402 may "blush" (take
on a gray coloring when drying) if applied in environments with extremely
high humidity. If the primer does "blush," no bond exists between the
primer and the surface of the material being coated. Before priming
the surface again, wash the material being coated with PT-1045 reducer.
A very thin film should be applied (approximately .2 mil). PT-402 will
not promote adhesion if the coat applied is too thick. Too thick a
coat of PT-402 will actually detract from the adhesion properties
of the primer. The pre-treatment primer may be coated with a regular
primer or topcoat within 15-30 minutes. If another primer is used,
refer to its appIication instructions before appIying the topcoat.
