AMERCOAT® 240 / SIGMACOVERTM 240
See Details
PRINCIPAL CHARACTERISTICS
- Multi-purpose epoxy for industrial and marine applications
- Strong adhesion properties, suitable for wet blast cleaned substrates (damp or dry)
- Good edge-retention capacity (> 70%)
- Low VOC, extremely low HAPs
- Resistant to well designed/controlled cathodic protection
- Good resistance against chemically-polluted water
- Good abrasion resistance
- Low-temperature cure down to -18°C (0°F)
COLOR AND GLOSS LEVEL
- Limited color range available
- Semi-gloss
Note: Epoxy coatings will characteristically chalk and fade upon exposure to sunlight. Light colors are prone to ambering to some extent in interior or exterior exposures
