APPLICATION PROTECTA-KOTE is a one component polyurethane that can be easily applied by roller, brush or spray to provide an attractive non-slip coating. Unlike other coatings it is non-abrasive and so does not damage goods.
CURING TIME Depending on temperature and humidity PROTECTA-KOTE can normally be put into service in approximately 12-24 hours. Final chemical resistance and physical properties are reached in 4-7 days.
COVERAGE 1.2-1.5m2 / litre for normal applications. 0.5m2/litre for high wear applications.
COLOURS Protecta-kote is available in black, grey, blue, green and red. As with all aromatic polyurethane's, colours darken with U.V. exposure and gloss is lost with time. Light-stable versions are also available in light and dark colours.
OVERCOATING AND REPAIRS PROTECTA-KOTE can easily be repaired or over coated after cleaning and sanding the surface.
SURFACE FINISH PROTECTA-KOTE has a glossy finish and can be applied to give a relatively smooth or rough finish.
SHELF LIFE AND POT LIFE PROTECTA-KOTE has a shelf life of 1 year from date of manufacture and is best used within 24 hrs from first opening.
STORAGE Store indoors between 15-25°C out of direct sunlight. Excessive temperature will cause thickening.

UV RESISTANCE 500 hrs of QUV accelerated weathering resulted in no deterioration in physical properties and no surface cracking. There will however be a loss of gloss and colour with continued exposure.
IMPACT RESISTANCE Due to its excellent flexibility, PROTECTA-KOTE has the ability to stay bonded to substrates even when they are deformed by impact.
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE PROTECTA-KOTE has good chemical resistance to most dilute acids, bases and salts and many solvents. Further details are available on request.
