Also makes an excellent finish for designer home accessories or small items of furniture.

Performance

Coating developed for the marine sector, featuring extremely high performance in terms of:

• direct adhesion to metal
• elasticity, hardness and abrasion resistance
• chemical and corrosion resistance
• UV stability and durability against weathering

Treatment of surfaces to be coated

The metal to be coated must be thoroughly clean. Cleaning can be carried out with degreasing solvents or detergents to remove all traces of dirt, grease and dust.

This is usually enough to promote optimum adhesion on the more common metals.

When dealing with more difficult substrates, such as stainless steel, pressed aluminium, brass and other metals with a very smooth, shiny finish, it’s always best to pretreat the surface by abrasive blasting or sanding to promote better adhesion.

Application

This is a finish with a highly attractive aesthetic appearance; it must be applied by spraying with normal airmix or airless equipment, fitting the spray gun with nozzles measuring between 1.2 and 1.7 mm and setting air pressure to 3-4 bar.

The thickness of the film to be applied must be in the range from 30 to 50 microns.

The product air-dries at ambient temperature in approx. 30-40 minutes.
