High performance, surface tolerant epoxy that has excellent resistance to water and wastewater exposures. This coating exhibits outstanding moisture tolerance during application, low temperature cure capability, and very fast cure response for quick return to service. Can be used on structural steel, piping, tankage, and equipment exposed to industrial or marine environments.

It can also be used in immersion service for salt water, process water (non-potable) and waste water treatment projects

• Glass Flake Reinforced
• Increased chemical, abrasion & thermal shock resistance
• Suitable for service under insulation (CUI) up to 150°C – 1 coat at 150 microns DFT
• High solids, low VOC
• High build (200 microns)
• Low temperature cure -7°C (20°F), Fast cure response

Available in a range of standard and tintable colours.

This fast cure high build polyaspartic coating provides excellent corrosion protection as well as long term weatherability in just one coat.

It can be applied direct to metal (DTM) at 150 to 250 µms dry film thickness (DFT) to eliminate the need for typical primers and/or intermediate coats. This significantly speeds up the painting process, saves labor, and saves money without sacrificing performance. If even better corrosion protection is desired it can be applied over our time proven Carbozinc or Carboguard primers.
