Product description
This is a two component polyamine cured phenolic/novolac epoxy coating. It is heat resistant up to 205 °C (401
°F) and can be applied on hot substrates up to 150 °C (302 °F). It is suitable for cryogenic temperatures, down
to -196°C (-321°F). It may be used on insulated and non-insulated surfaces. This product may be used as a
primer, mid coat or finish coat, with the exception of the bright aluminum colour which can only be used as a
finish coat. Suitable for properly prepared carbon steel, galvanised steel, stainless steel and aluminium
substrates.
Typical use
