Guest Aali Ahmed Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 Can Anyone tell me the right way to apply passive fire paint on a steel structure? I applied the regular way but when torched, no intumescent comes out and surface and surroundings get really hot. What to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green-foam Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 Since you have said paint, and I don't, what do the instructions on the tin say? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sutton Posted June 13, 2015 Report Share Posted June 13, 2015 Have you purchased intumescent paint designed for structural steelwork and have you follow the manufacturer's instruction to the letter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthonyB Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 I'm thinking you should be using the services of a competent passive fire protection contractor for this work, you appear not to have the knowledge required - it sounds like you are using standard fire rated paint rather than a structural steel work intumescent coating!
