VpCI-386 is a unique water-based acrylic primer / topcoat that offers protection in tough exterior and roofless applications. The complex blend of non-toxic organic inhibitors provides protection that competes with most zinc-rich primers and paints.
VpCI-386 is superior to many inorganic pigment coatings as strength has been improved by replacing pigments and metal oxides with effective organic corrosion inhibitors. The special combination of additives offers a barrier of polymeric compounds that significantly delay the ionization reaction of the metal. A protective film is absorbed into the metal surface and protects it from corrosive electrolytes and aggressive environments to prevent corrosion.
VpCI-386 is a fast drying thixotropic coating resistant to sagging or performance, forming a tough, non-flammable and protective barrier. This dry-to-touch film offers extended protection in outdoor and indoor conditions. It is thermally stable when dried between -78 ° C and 180 ° C. The coating is resistant to ultraviolet light which allows optimal performance outdoors as it will not crack, yellow or pit under prolonged exposure to the sun.
VpCI-386 is also available in its version for the cold VpCI-386 Winterized. VpCI-386 Winterized has been developed to withstand freezing / thawing during transport in temperatures below -18 ° C by passing 3 freeze / thaw cycles.
