AkzoNobel's International Paint LLC,has introduced Devoe Bar-Rust 234P to the North American water and wastewater industry.According to the company,it is the first solvent-free epoxy,low-temperature potable water tank lining system designed to meet the industry's need for low VOC compliance,without compromising performance.
The 100%solids,high build water tank lining system is ideal for new construction and rehabilitation installations because of its super fast cure,simple 2:1 mixing ratio,and single coat application capability—even in temperatures as low as 35°F.That translates into bigger project installation savings,a quicker return to service,and an extended painting season for areas with extreme weather conditions.
Devoe Bar-Rust 234P carries an NSF/ANSI 61 certification for potable water use and cures to a hard,high-gloss finish for a safe,clean,and maintenance-free installation.The system is applied with a plural airless sprayer directly to the water tank's carbon or stainless steel interior,in a single coat of 25-50 mils DFT film build,or in two coats at 15-25 mils DFT film build per coat,with a maximum film thickness of 50 mils DFT.A convenient¾gallon repair kit is also available for smaller field repairs and can be easily mixed and applied with a brush or roll.
