MOIST METAL GRIP

DESCRIPTION:
Tough adherent, 2-component Epoxy coatings, which produce hard, yet flexible coating films. These epoxy products will demonstrate excellent chemical- and solvent-resistance when utilized in harsh atmospheres, and will also provide outstanding water- and humidity resistance.

MOIST METAL GRIP

4 year old natural gas line

These coatings will adhere tenaciously to a variety of substrates, such as carbon steel (phosphated or non phosphated), wood, and concrete. These products can be utilized in DTM (direct-to-metal) applications, with excellent success, as they have been fortified with a very efficient, non-toxic, rust-inhibitive pigment.

APPLICATION METHODS:
MIX IN CURING AGENT, THEN LET STAND FOR 30 MINUTES BEFORE USING. Surfaces should be clean, dry surfaces but designed to be applied to damp or wet surfaces free of debris (oils and chemicals) without loss of adhesion ability. This product is user-friendly, in that it may be applied by brush, roller, or spray and may even be applied to damp or moist substrates without fear of adhesion loss. Additionally, these products will exhibit a pot-life in excess of 6 hours. #ME Series Products are environmentally friendly with a VOC of 3.5 pounds per gallon. IMMEDIATELY UPON JOB COMPLETION, FLUSH UNIT AND LINES WITH SOLVENT (MEK) TO PROTECT FROM PRODUCT CURING INSIDE MACHINERY.

Coat (6 dry mil) recommended for offshore rigs or oil tank flooring. LET DRY 24 TO 48 HOURS. Completely cures in 10 days.

NOTE: When used in exterior coating applications, MMG will chalk and lose gloss. For maximum exterior weathering properties, top coat with ENAMO GRIP.

Suitable substrates: Clean, bare carbon steel, phosphated metals, primed metals, wood, and concrete.
