VFI-8005 Pump Flush

VFI-8005 Pump Flush is a chemically dry, nonflammable liquid flushing material for quickly removing residual polyurethane and polyurea material from high-pressure spray equipment. The maintenance and cleaning of your spray equipment is important to keep it running efficiently. Keeping unused material inside your equipment can shorten the life of the lines if it’s not cleaned out properly after each use. After spraying polyurethane or polyurea through your equipment, use VFI-8005 to thoroughly clean your machine.

Application

Use enough VFI-8005 to fill the spray lines. Turn on the spray machine’s hose heat. If you are also using this material to flush out restrictions in the system, turn the primary heat up to 140°F on the side you are flushing. Using the transfer pumps, pump the material into the system. Use a separate waste bucket to catch the material that comes out of the machine.

When a clear stream of the pump flush begins to come out, turn off the transfer pump and attach a filter bag to the end of the hose to catch chunks in the system. Once the filter bag is attached, turn the transfer pump back on and let it circulate for at least 15 minutes. Stop using the pump flush once the liquid gets heavy with the polyurethane or polyurea material.

Cleanup

Wipe down the exterior of the transfer pump with a clean rag. Dispose of the material and containers in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations. Avoid or minimize generating waste whenever possible.

Storage/Shelf Life

Store in closed containers between 60°F – 90°F in a well-ventilated, clean, and dry building. Do not store near heat, spark, flame, or direct sunlight. Keep pails sealed when not in use. The shelf life of the material is 12 months from the date of manufacture.

Precautions

Keep moisture out of the material to prevent contamination of spray lines. Use only with adequate ventilation. Do not thin or add foreign material to the product. See Safety Data Sheet for complete safety information.
