PU for Metal

1001 PU Finishes for Metal ST

Standard Mixing Ratio is 4:1.

Our PU finishes for metal are usually applied over mild steel and metal to increase the life of the surface to be painted. Once applied properly the surface is ready for use. Repainting is not required for atleast 6 to 10 years. Weather conditions and usage factors affect life of paint.

Application  : The surface should be free of dust, contaminants and grease. Use rust remover if there is any rust. Once the surface is clean, use 1001 Epoxy Zinc Phosphate Primer 16% or 1001 Epoxy Zinc Rich Primer. Then use PU paint as top coat for best results.

Note: Elite Epoxy Zinc Phosphate Primer 8% or Infinity Epoxy Zinc Phosphate Primer 4% can be used to make the cost economical but overall life will reduce.

Keeping properties are excellent as PU base paint can last upto 3 years in sealed containers. PU Hardener's life is less than 6 months.
