Acrylic Epoxy
Acrylic-Epoxy are two-component coatings developed by
Pittsburgh Paints (tm), which include Pitt-Glaze Water Base
Coatings. Chemically, acrylic-epoxy coatings provide the
resistance to staining, yellowing and scuffing of acrylic
resins, combined with the toughness, acid and alkali
resistance of epoxies. Their performance characteristics
are almost equal to those of polyester-epoxy solvent based
products and their stain-resistance is superior.
Acrylic-epoxy coatings are available in gloss and
semi-gloss finishes - in both clear and pigmented
formulations. Colorant can be added to the pigmented
products to achieve hundreds of colors.
Though priced higher than conventional enamels,
acrylic-epoxy coatings offer superior washability,
non-yellowing characteristics, and generally 3-5 times
longer life, which makes them an outstanding value for
interior walls continuously subjected to hard-use
conditions. |
