Chassis Enamel
(90 minute dry)

Product Function

Chassis Enamel is a high quality 2 hour alkyd synthetic enamel. Coatings offer fast surface drying even in thick films, minimum yellowing and outstanding film hardness and toughness. Chassis Enamel can be used for heavy duty vehicle finishing as well as for vehicle repair work and due to its good resistance to oils, fats and cutting oils etc, makes this an ideal choice for machinery enamel. It is flexible and gives good performance over both interior and exterior wood.

Preparation / Pre-Treatment

Surfaces must be thoroughly clean, dry, free from millscale, rust, oil, grease or other contaminants - use Degreasing Thinners. For non-ferrous metals, Acron Two Etch Primer must be used. Various undercoats and anti-corrosive primers are available.

Application

Can be brushed or hot sprayed without the addition of thinners. For conventional air assisted spray - use 20% to 25% Speed Thinners.
