Finishes

AD100 Finish
...high quality, fast drying, medium build finish based on a short oil modified alkyd resin which produces a hard, glossy coating. This product exhibits high durability, gloss retention and resistance in industrial and agricultural environments.
...dry times are short, therefore overcoating times are reduced, giving a fast turnaround in application.
...machinery and plant, agricultural equipment, general fabrications and machine tools where a premium gloss is required.

Specified with:
  One-Pack Epoxy Zinc Primer (steel - conventional)
  Speedspray QDH Primer (steel - extended life)
  Two-Pack Etch Primer (aluminium)
[top]
Bright Aluminium Paint
...high quality heat resistant aluminium paint for decorative and protective use on metalwork. Based on a modified hard resin system pigmented with leafing aluminium to provide good protection and a bright metallic finish.
...withstands heated surfaces up to 150°C.
...can be used on most metal surfaces such as ducting, chassis members, tank exteriors, pipework and in a solar reflective role where excessive temperatures need to be limited.

Recommended primers:
  Hi-dur Zinc Phosphate Primer
  Etch Primer (Two Pack)
[top]
Farmline
...fast air drying enamels designed for the coating and refurbishing of agricultural, horticultural and construction machinery components. Based on a pure drying, oil modified alkyd blend with urethane in mixed hydrocarbon solvent.
