Mica Bond

Product Description

Resene Mica Bond is an oleoresinous based micaceous iron oxide pigmented coating modified with aluminium to provide lighter colours. Resene Mica Bond is highly resistant to weathering, and mildly corrosive conditions. Its pigmentation confers a very high degree of moisture vapour resistance due to its laminar type structure.

Typical uses: As a topcoat on suitably primed steel such as:
- Bridges
- Cranes
- Gas holders
- Harbour installation
- Pipelines
- Primed aluminium
- Primed galvanised steel
- Silos
- Roofing
- Transmission towers.

Colour: Silver grey, medium grey, dark grey.

Performance:
1. Excellent brushing properties and intercoat adhesion.
2. Excellent U.V. and water resistance.

Limitations:
1. When brush applied lap marking may occur. Where possible brushstrokes should be in the one direction and laps be on weld seams, rivet lines or bolt joints.
2. When applied over zinc rich primers, a non-saponifiable barrier coat must first be applied.
3. Drying will be impaired if application dry film thickness exceeds 50 microns per coat.
4. Drying times may be extended when applied directly over Resene Vinyl Etch (see Data Sheet RA31) or Resene Armourcote 220 (see Data Sheet RA34).
