Owatrol RA.85 Anti-Corrosion Aluminium Paint 0.75L

Description

High-Gloss Aluminium Anti-Corrosion Finish

Owatrol RA.85 is a flexible aluminium-coloured finishing paint designed to provide both a decorative finish and protection against corrosion.

Its formulation uses the penetrating and adhesion properties of Owatrol Oil, helping produce an even, flexible film with a bright aluminium appearance. Owatrol also specifies RA.85 for restoring rusted and corroded surfaces.

Surface Preparation & Application

Surfaces should be clean, dry and free from oil, grease and other contaminants before application.

Stir RA.85 thoroughly before and during use to keep the aluminium pigment properly suspended.

Owatrol instructs users not to dilute the product. Apply one coat, or additional coats where required, allowing the specified drying/recoating period between applications.

For new metal other than aluminium, Owatrol recommends an application of Owatrol Oil before RA.85 to help prevent interaction between the underlying metal and the aluminium paint.

Useful for Marine Maintenance

RA.85 is included by Owatrol within its marine solutions and can be useful for protecting suitable metal components exposed to demanding conditions. Its corrosion resistance, adhesion and flexible finish are particularly relevant where metal is exposed to weather and moisture.

For specific marine applications, always check that RA.85 is appropriate for the particular substrate, location and exposure conditions before application.
