Owatrol GLV, Flexible Anti-Corrosive High Gloss Marine Aluminium Paint Finish

Product Description

OWATROL®-GLV is a highly flexible, anti-corrosive coating that possesses the deep penetrating and adhesion properties of MARINE OIL*. OWATROL®-GLV will restore rusted and corroded surfaces above the waterline to give lasting protection and greatly prolong the life of the treated surface. OWATROL®-GLV has excellent abrasion resistance, withstands chemical attack and is ideal in aggressive climatic conditions where a high resistant finish is necessary.

Properties

• Excellent resistance against the effects of the weather.
• Safe to use in confined areas – Does not emit any dangerous fumes.
• Withstand temperatures up to 175°C (347°F) once cured.
• Excellent light and heat reflecting properties.
• Expels moisture and air from rusted surfaces – Stops and stabilises rust without chemical reaction.
• MARINE OIL* based (OWATROL® OIL*).
• Easy application.
• Highly elastic – Will not crack, peel or blister.

Surface Preparation

• Surfaces must be clean, dry and free of oil, grease, grime and other surface contamination.
• Remove all loose and flaking rust and old paint back to a sound surface and edge.
• Feather in any sharp edges.
• Clean surfaces thoroughly using a suitable non-oxidising solvent e.g. Acetone, White-Spirit.

Application

Stir can well before and during use. Do not thin.

New Surfaces exc’ Aluminium Surfaces

• Abrade surfaces with 60-120 grit paper. Fibreglass 180-220 grit paper.
• For inaccessible areas use a liquid sander e.g. diluted OWAYELL* (Consult us). Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry.
• Prime new metal and galvanised surfaces with 1 coat of MARINE OIL* or OWATROL®-C.I.P.* and allow to dry 24 hours.
• Apply 1 or 2 coats of OWATROL®-GLV.
• For new metal surfaces subject to aggressive climatic conditions apply 2 coats.

New Aluminium Surfaces

• Abrade surfaces with 60-120 grit paper compatible with Aluminium or Sandblast.
• For inaccessible areas use a liquid sander e.g. diluted OWAYELL* (Consult us). Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry.
• Apply 1 or 2 coats of OWATROL®-GLV allowing drying time between coats.

Clean, Lightly Rusted Metal

Apply 2 coats of OWATROL®-GLV allowing drying time between coats.

Old Severely Rusted Surfaces

• Apply wet on wet applications of MARINE OIL* until rust is fully saturated and allow to dry. Saturation is indicated by a uniform glossy appearance to the surface when MARINE OIL* is dry.
• Apply 2 coats of OWATROL®-GLV allowing drying time between coats.

Previously Coated Surfaces

• Spot prime all exposed metal with MARINE OIL or OWATROL®-C.I.P.* depending on severity of rust and allow to dry.
• Apply OWATROL®-GLV to primed areas to bring level with existing finish, allowing drying time between coats.
• Apply 1 or 2 coats of OWATROL®-GLV over entire area; allowing drying time between coats.
