can be applied directly over this primer
10-15 minutes after application.
Formulated with VOC less than or
equal to 3. 5 lb/gal and less than 0.17 lb
HAPS/gal, this 2-component, chrome-free primer adheres to cleaned G90 galvanized steel and aluminum as well as
fiberglass substrates.
Applied directly to cleaned or blasted
steel, Spectracron 380 promotes surface
protection and color/gloss retention.
This 2-component exterior-grade enamel has blended VOC of 3. 5 lb/gal max
and imparts resistance to chemicals,
abrasion and impact. There are no hazardous air pollutants or SARA 313 constituents, and various colors and gloss-es are available. Poly-Iothane HS can be
applied directly to cleaned or blasted
steel as well as over 2K epoxy or
polyurethane primers.
Formulated for accelerated drying
times, Aquacron 880 Series interi-or/exterior enamel is intended for
industrial use on bare or primed metal
surfaces. Low-odor solution contains no
heavy metals, comes in range of colors
and gloss, and has no recoat window.
Water can be used for reduction and
cleanup, and product can be formulated
to 2.8 VOC (less water) compliance.
Aquacron 835 is suited for industrial
use on bare metal surfaces where corrosion resistance is needed. It can be top
coated with water reducible alkyd
enamels or solvent-based enamels in
field after thoroughly dried and contain
no heavy metals. Along with less than
one pound of organic HAPS/gallon of
solids, low-odor primer features 2.8
lb/gal VOC-compliant formulation compatible with tap water reduction.
Suitable for interior and limited exterior applications, Aquacron 833 can be
field top coated with water reducible
alkyd enamels or solvent-based enamels after thoroughly dried. Low-odor
product contains no heavy metals, is
VOC-compliant, and has less than one
pound of organic HAPS/gal of solids.
Applications include metal fabrication,
structural steel, industrial machinery,
cabinets, racking and shelving.
BASF REFINISH LAUNCHES
NEW R-M ONYX HD PRODUCTS
BASF Automotive Refinish Solutions
has launched two new additives for
its Onyx HD line in the U.S. and
Canada. Hydrobase Slow (HB004)
and Hydromix Slow (HB040) complement the waterborne basecoat system Onyx HD, which belongs to the
R-M brand of BASF Coatings.
These slower additives were developed to improve the flexibility of Onyx
HD. Used at high temperatures and
lower humidity, HB004 and HB040 are
designed to help control the drying
process.
HB004 and NB040 are suited for use when
applying Onyx HD to larger surfaces, such
as light commercial vehicles, or during
re-sprays, where slower drying helps the
painter maintain a wet edge.

NEW COMPOSITE MOLD RELEASE
Mold Release Coating 7575 from
Huron Technologies has proven to
maintain details in the compression
molding process using vinyl ester
resins. The new mold release coating
is replacing older, outdated products
that were not as effective in capturing
mold details. Mold Release Coating
7575 also provides less build-up on the
mold surface, less clean up and maintenance and ease of release during the
molding process. The new mold
release coating lends itself to molding
Mold Release Coating provides corrosion

products that must stand up to harsh,
corrosive environments. This includes
chemical containers, ball and butterfly
valves, wind turbine blades, pump
housings, functional building panels
and other products that resist corrosion during normal use. CW
