Technical Details & Test Data

Superior Performance From a Superior paint.

Exhaustive tests conducted at the Glyptal laboratories confirm consistently favorable customer experience with 1201:

  • Meets Requirements of MIL-E-22118
  • Flexibility is far superior to competitive red sealers on both backed and air-dried films. 1201 can take rugged impact.
  • Water Resistance is excellent.
  • Prolonged Aging doesn't crack 1201s film, leaves no place for destructive agents to get in.
  • Fast Drying 1201 is tack-free in about thirty minutes at room temperature, can be baked to a beautiful smooth finish.
  • Heat Resistance. 1201 has got it, can withstand continuous 135°C temperatures for months.
  • Prolonged Heat. After 3700 hours at 35°C, there is no change in dielectric strength.
  • Toughness. High-gloss paints have a tender film. 1201 has a low-gloss finish, designed for great resistance to abrasion.
  • Adhesion. 1201 hangs on, stays where it's put-on metals, ceramic, porcelain, concrete, fibers, and Wood.
  • Dlelectric Strength is rated at 1500 volts per mil, permits thinner coating than most competitive paints.
  • Arc Resistance, even with air-dried films, is 480 Seconds.
