- Applications
- Crestakyd® 10-3000 is used for interior and exterior decorative enamels, marine and topside paints. Also suitable for undercoats, maintenance primers and floor varnishes.
- Decorative enamels are normally dry to touch in 2-2½ hours and tack free after 4-4½ hours. Through dry properties are excellent. High levels of gloss and build, coupled with good color retention and durability properties, make the resin ideally suited for exterior work.
- Drier Recommendation: 0.2% zirconium, 0.05% cobalt and 0.1% calcium, calculated as metals on resin solids or suitable “combination driers."
- Thinner recommendation: excellent tolerance to aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents.
