Applications & Uses
- Applications
- Cure Method
- Typical Uses
High performance topcoat protection for steel and iron applications, such as industrial, marine, farm, automotive, and any place where rust is a problem, or a gloss black finish is desired.
- Recoat Ability
With BlackShell after 2-6 hours, not to exceed 12 hours.
- Cure Times
- Depending on ambient temperature and relative humidity, and WFT:
- Handle: 2-4 hours.
- Touch: 2-4 hours.
- Recoat: 2-6, not exceeding 12 hours.
- Compatibility
With most other MCUs (Moisture-cured Urethane); always refer to the coating manufacturers guidelines for application and compatibility.
- Surface Preparation
Surface must be free of contaminates, such as, loose rust, oil, grease, wax, moisture etc. This may be achieved by light scraping; a detergent or solvent wipe may be used if necessary.
