• Apply a finish coat paint using accepted blending
techniques. Use of original paint colors is recommended
to insure the best color match possible.
For scratches and marks in areas of low visibility:
• Consider touching up the spots with a brush technique
to cover the bare metal. This will retard the effects of
corrosion and enable you to do the repair at a later time
during a normal maintenance interval.
Spots should be touched up with quality paint. Primers tend
to be porous; using a single coat of primer only will allow air
and water to penetrate the repair over time.
Application
Depending upon the environment in which a crane is used
and/or stored, the initial factory application of Carwell T32-
CP-90 should help inhibit corrosion for up to approximately
12 months.
It is recommended that Carwell T32-CP-90 be periodically
reapplied by the crane owner after that time to help continue
to protect against corrosion of the crane and its components.
However, if a crane is used and/or stored in harsh
environments (such as islands, coastal regions, industrial
areas, areas where winter road salt is regularly used, etc.),
reapplication of Carwell T32-CP-90 is recommended sooner
than 12 months, e.g., repeat treatment in 6-9 months.
• Do not apply to recently primered and painted areas for
at least 48 hours after paint is properly dried and cured.
For minor touch up areas a 24 hour period is needed for
cure time before applying Carwell.
NOTE: Unit must be completely dry before applying
Carwell.
• Do not allow product to puddle or build-up on weather
stripping, rubber gaskets, etc. Unit should not have
puddles or runs evident anywhere.
• To ensure proper coverage of Carwell, the product
needs to be fogged on the unit.
• Use of pressure pots to apply the Carwell to the unit
being processed is recommended.
• Carwell T32-CP-90 is available in 16 ounce spray
bottles from Manitowoc Crane Care (order part number
8898904099).
• After application of the Carwell is complete, wash or
clean film residue from lights, windshield, grab handles,
ladders/steps and all access areas to crane, as
necessary.
Please contact Manitowoc Crane Care should you have any
questions.
Areas of Application
• The underside of the unit will have full coverage of the
rust inhibitor. These are the only areas that a full coat of
the rust inhibitor is acceptable on the painted surfaces.
Areas include; Valves, hose end and fittings, Swivel,
pumps, axles, drivelines, transmission, all interior
surfaces of the frame
• Frame application areas are; hose ends and fittings, all
unpainted fasteners and hardware, all bare metal
surfaces, outrigger pads, and back up alarms.
• Superstructure applications are; hose end and fittings,
wire rope on hoist roller tensioning springs on hoists, all
unpainted fasteners and hardware, valves, slew ring, all
bare metal surfaces.
• Boom applications areas are; pivot pins, hose end and
fittings, jib pins and shafts, all bare metal surfaces,
downhaul weight / hook block pins and fasteners.
• All hardware, clips, pins, hose connections not painted
will have Carwell applied.
