The Bartoline Bitcote Black Bitumen Paint is designed for those needing a robust anti-corrosive solution, particularly for iron and steel surfaces. Its key benefit lies in providing waterproofing, flexibility, and durability with an easy brush application. A primary caveat is its specific application limitations, including avoiding contact with mineral oils and solvents, and not applying it where surface temperatures can exceed 70°C.

Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned, dried, and free from rust or grease before application. Use a primer if long-term protection is required.

This may indicate the surface is too hot during application or curing, or that the surface is not flexible enough for the environment. Do not use if surface temperature can rise above 70°C. Ensure two coats are applied at right angles.
Preparation: Ensure all surfaces are sound, clean, dry, and free from grease and dust. For metal, wire brush thoroughly to remove any existing rust. If long-term protection is needed, a rust-inhibitive primer is recommended before applying Bitcote.
Application: Apply by brush or spray. A minimum of two coats is advised, allowing the first coat to dry completely (4-8 hours touch dry) before applying the second at a 90-degree angle.
Thinning: For spray application, thin with no more than 10% Bartoline White Spirit. Do not over-thin.
Compatibility: Do not apply ordinary paints over Bitcote. Avoid applications where the surface will come into contact with mineral oils or solvents. This product is not suitable for tarmacadam drives or roadways.
Care & Cleaning: Clean application tools immediately after use with Bartoline White Spirit. Store the paint in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sources of ignition. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed.
