HIGH TEMPERATURE EPOXY PAINT

HEAT RESISTANT EPOXY PAINT FOR STEEL, IRON, GALVANIZED, FIBERGALSS AND URETHANE FOAM

A one component, Moisture Cured Polyurethane Aluminum Coating. Has excellent adhesion to sound, tightly adherent rusty steel, and other marginally prepared surfaces. This low viscosity, high “wetting” coating undergoes a rapid molecular weight change as it polymerizes into a high molecular weight finish which provides excellent corrosion resistance and abrasion resistance. Its resistance to creeping, undercutting, and blistering is superior to epoxy primers. AGMCU-100 is also a barrier primer allowing it to top coat over existing conventional coatings, and most chemical coatings.

Outstanding abrasion resistance.

Very good weather resistance.

Fast recoating, 1-2 hours.

High heat resistance, up to 400°F

Cures down to 18°F on dry surfaces.

Excellent as a barrier coat over lead based paints

Excellent corrosion resistance, passed 1,200 hours in salt cabinet

USDA Approved.

Single component. Easy to use.

Coverage is 270-400 sf/gallon depending on surface condition and application method.

AGMCU-100 is made ready for use by stirring so that the aluminum pigment is thoroughly dispersed in the resin and a uniform “silver” color is achieved. Do not use a paint shaker. When used over a period of time, stir occasionally to maintain uniform mix. Thinning is not usually necessary. If needed, use up to 10% SA-50 Urethane Reducer which is a water free grade. Always keep partially used containers tightly sealed to prevent air moisture from reacting with the material and forming a tough skin. Skin can be removed and remaining material used. NOTE: Always wear protective gloves and clothing while mixing and applying AGMCU-100. Do not get on skin. AGMCU-100 is difficult to remove.

AGMCU-100 may be applied by brush, roll, or spray. For rolling, use a ¼” – 3/8” shed resistant phenolic core cover. When brushing, use a bristle brush. For spray it is important that a moisture/oil trap be used on incoming air and that fluid lines be flushed first with an anhydrous solvent (water free) such as S-74. Also, flush every 1-2 hours during use to keep lines clean from material build up. Required equipment is as follows: 1. Airless Spray - Use a minimum 20:1 ratio pump with 80-100 psi inbound air. Recommend a .013” - .017:” tip. Adjust pressure for proper atomization based on selected tip.
2. Convention Spray - Use a dual regulated pot with 15-25 psi fluid pressure and 40-50 psi atomization pressure. A Binks #18 with a 704E tip/air cap is recommended. When spraying, use a 50% overlapping crosshatch pattern to minimize the occurrence of pinholes.
Do not apply to surfaces below 18°F or above 140°F. Do not apply over dew or frost. The surface should be dry and at least 5°F above the dew point.

LIMITATIONS

1. Do not apply over frost, wet or damp surfaces or extremely high humidity conditions.
2. Not recommended as tank lining for constant immersion.
3. Must be recoated the same day.
4. Partially used containers must be reclosed tightly to prevent moisture in air from reacting with material and forming a tough skin. Skin can be removed and remaining material used. Be sure to stir.

RECOAT TIME

Based on temperature of 75°F and 50% R.H. (relative humidity), ARMGC-100 is tack free in 1-2 hours and may be overcoated in 2-3 hours. Always check for fingernail hardness. For maximum adhesion, recoat no longer than 6 hours at 75°F and 50% R.H. High temperatures and humidity will shorten recoat time. When applying conventional paints (e.g., Alkyds, Silicone, Enamels and Acrylics) AGMCU-100 must be top coated as soon as AgMCU-100 has dried. If AGMCU-100 gets rained on or has condensation form on its surface, a sweep blast is necessary to abrade the surface before applying a topcoat.

CAUTIONS

AGMCU-100 is flammable. Keep away from all sources of ignition during mixing application and cure. Contains aromatic polyisocyanates. Proper ventilation is necessary when painting indoors or confined areas. Vapors and spray mist may cause eye/skin irritation as well as allergic reactions. Always wear protective clothing, goggles, impervious gloves and use NIOSH approved respirators. For industrial use only. Keep out of reach of children.
