Description

DURABLE PROTECTION AND AN OUTSTANDING PRIMER

A high quality spray providing active metal protection against corrosion and an excellent primer coat. The sacrificial properties of zinc contribute to an effective defence against oxidisation should the coating become damaged. Galvex Matt can be used both on bare metal and previously galvanised surfaces, and is suitable for spraying onto acrylic or cellulose paints (not alkyd). It may be overcoated with acrylic, alkyd, p/u alkyd and epoxy.

• High zinc content for maximum corrosion protection,
• Including salt spray
• Zinc powder in the product is of high purity
• Can be used on previously coated surfaces
• Can be over-coated

Application

Remove excess rust and ensure surface to be treated is clean and dry. Shake can until agitator ball can be heard and then for a further 1-2 minutes. Hold can 25-30 cm from the surface and apply a light coat. Further coats can be added to build up the required thickness. Allow 15-30 minutes drying before overcoating. Invert can after use and depress actuator to prevent nozzle blockage.
