BRIGHT COLD GALVANISING SPRAY


BRIGHT, GLOSSY COATING FOR NEWLY GALVANIZED PARTS

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

A single component, zinc-aluminium coating


combining corrosion protection properties with
the lustre look of recently galvanized parts.
Bright Cold Galvanising Spray is a combination
of zinc and aluminium powders, resins and
additives, formulated to form a flexible
protective film with a bright, glossy
appearance.

FEATURES

• Excellent touch-up for freshly galvanized surfaces.


• Provides e xcellent corrosion and rust resistance to ferrous metals.
• Unique combination of flexibility and hardness.
• Resists rusting, peeling and fading.
• Adheres well to metal surfaces.
• Excellent colour match for recently hot-dip galvanized parts
• Totally lead and chromate free.
• No chlorinated solvents.

APPLICATIONS

• Touch-up at Hot-Dip galvanizing plants • Fences and gates


• Home, garden and farm equipment • Construction equipment
• Structural steel • Guard rails
• Welding seams • Pipes and fittings
• Coastal and shipborne installations • Repair of LPG storage tanks

DIRECTIONS

• Shake aerosol can very well for at least one minute after agitator ball is free.
Repeat frequently while using.
• Apply to a clean, degreased, dry surface for best results. Remove rust and
scale with a wire brush.
• Apply in light, even coats; best results are obtained with 2 lighter rather than
1 heavy coat.
• Additional coats can be applied after 15-20 minutes.
• When spraying is finished, clean aerosol valve by turning can upside down
and press button until only propellant escapes. If clogging occurs, remove
button and clean orifice with fine wire.
• Do not use on energized equipment. Use in well ventilated area.

* Typical corrosion protection results will depend mainly on surface conditions


and environment. It may be several months up to over 1 year outdoors or more
than 2 years indoors.The first a pplication therefore should be checked
periodically for signs of corrosion. Once the time of protection under any
specific condition is determined, Bright Cold Galvanising Spray may be re-
applied at intervals to maintain protection.
