PRODUCT INFORMATION
MACROPOXY 646 FAST CURE EPOXY is a high solids, high
build, fast drying, polyamide epoxy designed to protect steel
and concrete in industrial exposures. Ideal for maintenance
painting and fabrication shop applications. The high solids
content ensures adequate protection of sharp edges, corners,
and welds. This product can be applied directly to marginally
prepared steel surfaces.
• Low VOC
• Chemical resistant
• Low odor • Abrasion resistant
• Marine applications
• Fabrication shops
• Refineries
• Pulp and paper mills • Chemical plants
• Power plants • Tank exteriors
• Offshore platforms • Water treatment plants
• Mill White and Black are acceptable for immersion use for
salt water and fresh water, not acceptable for potable water
• Suitable for use in USDA inspected facilities
