Intumescent Coating WB 1000 for steel should be installed with an Airless spray pump such as Spraytech
EP2355 or Graco 1595 / Ultra Max 795 or brush. All surfaces receiving the 3M
TM
FireDam
TM
Intumescent Coating WB 1000 for
steel should be thoroughly cleaned of oil, grease, dirt, loose paint, loose mill scale and any other matter that will impair bond.
Existing Conditions:
(1) Verify existing conditions and substrates before starting work. Correct unsatisfactory conditions before proceeding.
(2) Proceed with installation only after steel components are primed with compatible recommended primer.
*Refer to section 8. Primers
Provide masking and drop cloths to prevent contamination of adjacent surfaces by reproong material.

General instructions for installing 3M
TM
FireDam
TM
Intumescent Coating WB 1000 for steel include confirmation of primer
compatibility such as recommended Alkyd and Epoxy primers to receive 3M
TM
FireDam
TM
Intumescent Coating WB 1000.
Note: Primers containing zinc metal are generally not recommended.
Apply 3M
TM
FireDam
TM
Intumescent Coating WB 1000 only to primed surfaces. Site conditions and end-use may dictate spe-
cific primer specifications. Follow primer manufacturers instructions.
Refer to the 3M
TM
FireDam
TM
Intumescent Coating WB 1000 fire test design information to determine the minimum dry film
thickness required for the size and orientation of steel element to be protected and for the required fire resistance rating.
3M
TM
FireDam
TM
Intumescent Coating WB 1000 should be applied in sufficient wet film thicknesses to achieve the required fire
resistive rating with as many passes as necessary, to attain required (DFT) dry film thickness.
3M FireDam Intumescent Coating WB 1000 should not be applied when relative humidity exceeds 80% or the surface to
be coated is less than 3C above the dewpoint. The product is recommended to be applied only when temperatures are above
10C or 50F.
To ensure an even coating thickness, the desired thickness should be achieved by the application of successive coats of
no more than 500 microns dft (760 microns wft) per coat. Apply in sufficient thickness to achieve rating to uniform density
and texture.
The completed dry film thickness should be checked to ensure the required thickness has been applied.
When multiple coats of 3M FireDam Intumescent Coating WB 1000 are required to achieve the prescribed dry film
thickness, adequate drying time between the coats should be allowed. At 20C the minimum overcoating time is typically
4-6 hours. (The time will vary depending upon the prevailing temperature, relative humidity, air movement and thickness
of material applied).

A compatible topcoat with 3M
TM
FireDam
TM
Intumescent Coating WB 1000 is recommended for all installations, in order to give
the desired colour. All topcoats should be applied in accordance with the topcoat manufacturers recommendations.
Either acrylic or silicone alkyd paint to match surroundings are recommended.
Ensure the 3M
TM
FireDam
TM
Intumescent Coating WB 1000 is thoroughly dry before application of topcoat.
Follow approved working practices. Wear government approved respirators and proper clothing, reading all warning labels, and
follow instruction on the MSDS.
No maintenance is required when installed in accordance with the 3M installation manual. Once installed, if any section of the
3M
TM
FireDam
TM
Intumescent Coating WB 1000 is damaged, the damaged section should be repaired (touched up) by a 3M
trained and certified applicator.
