Wearlon® 722

Technical Data Sheet

Unique Properties

Wearlon® 722 System has been designed for high performance areas where hardness, chemical and abrasion resistance is required. The aliphatic backbone of Wearlon® 722 provides excellent UV resistance, which makes it particularly useful in exterior applications. One of the most outstanding features of Wearlon® 722 is its rapid hardness development. Wearlon® 722 is water borne and extremely tough even at deposits of 1 to 2 mil dry film thickness.

Adhesion Properties

Wearlon® 722 primer has outstanding adhesion to a wide variety of substrates. However, on certain metal and special substrates, we suggest that proper sand blasting or anticorrosive coating be applied before Wearlon® 722 application.

All surfaces must be free of contaminates. For metal surfaces, a white metal blast is recommended. For concrete surfaces, blasting or blast-track will give the best results. For new concrete surfaces, a 5% acid wash is acceptable.

Formulating Guide

Flash rusting is seldom encountered with systems based on Wearlon® 722. However, unusually high humidity conditions may cause some problems. Ammonium benzoate, as well as other anti-flash rusting products available at local paint stores, is effective in eliminating flash rusting.

Colors

Available in clear or color.

CAUTION:

• Wearlon® surfaces have a low coefficient of friction and therefore tend to be slippery.
