Alumastic
Product Description
Resene Alumastic is formulated with a unique blend of low-molecular weight resins, penetrants and surface active agents. This allows excellent wetting and penetration of rusted steel surfaces. Reaction occurs on the surface, setting the components into a high molecular weight, tough durable polymer.
Self-priming maintenance coat over steel, rusted steel and galvanised steel.
Typical uses:
- Galvanised steel,
- Roofing,
- Structural steel.
Performance:
1. Extremely tolerant of poor surface preparation.
2. Excellent resistance to marine environments.
3. A high-build coating that can be used as a self-finish, or as a heavy duty primer.
4. High level of flexibility.
Limitations:
1. Cure time is considerably slowed below 10ºC.
2. Limited resistance to acids and alkalis.
3. Do not apply over thermoplastic coatings.
4. Excellent adhesion to most aged paint systems (see limitation 3). However a test patch is always recommended to confirm compatibility.
