OWATROL-GLV is a highly flexible, anti-corrosive coating that possesses the deep penetrating and adhesion properties of MARINE OIL. OWATROL-GLV will restore rusted and corroded surfaces above the waterline to give lasting protection and greatly prolong the life of the treated surface. OWATROL-GLV has excellent abrasion resistance, withstands chemical attack and is ideal in aggressive climatic conditions where a high resistant finish is necessary.
Properties
- Excellent resistance against the effects of the weather.
- Safe to use in confined areas - Does not emit any dangerous fumes.
- Withstand temperatures up to 175°C (347°F) once cured.
- Excellent light and heat reflecting properties.
- Expels moisture and air from rusted surfaces – Stops and stabilises rust without chemical reaction.
- MARINE OIL* based (OWATROL OIL*).
- Easy application.
- Highly elastic - Will not crack, peel or blister.
Where to use
- Interior and exterior.
- Horizontal and vertical surfaces.
- Ferrous and non-ferrous metals - Aluminium, Copper, Steel, Iron, Galvanised…
- Wood, Painted and varnished surfaces…
- Deck fixings, Balconies, Trailers, Pipes, Pumps…
- Non-marine - Grills, Machinery, Tanks, Exhausts…
Preparation surface
- Surfaces must be clean, dry and free of oil, grease, grime and other surface contamination.
- Remove all loose and flaking rust and old paint back to a sound surface and edge.
- Feather in any sharp edges.
- Clean surfaces thoroughly using a suitable non-oxidising solvent e.g. Acetone, White-Spirit…
Application
- Stir can well before and during use. Do not thin.
New Surfaces exc’ Aluminium Surfaces
- Abrade surfaces with 60-120 grit paper. Fibreglass 180-220 grit paper.
- For inaccessible areas use a liquid sander e.g. diluted OWAYELL (Consult us). Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry.
- Prime new metal and galvanised surfaces with 1 coat of MARINE OIL or OWATROL-C.I.P. and allow to dry 24 hours.
- Apply 1 or 2 coats of OWATROL-GLV.
- For new metal surfaces subject to aggressive climatic conditions apply 2 coats.
New Aluminium Surfaces
- Abrade surfaces with 60-120 grit paper compatible with Aluminium or Sandblast.
- For inaccessible areas use a liquid sander e.g. diluted OWAYELL (Consult us). Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry.
- Apply 1 or 2 coats of OWATROL-GLV allowing drying time between coats.
Clean, Lightly Rusted Metal
- Apply 2 coats of OWATROL-GLV allowing drying time between coats.
Old Severely Rusted Surfaces
- Apply wet on wet applications of MARINE OIL until rust is fully saturated and allow to dry. Saturation is indicated by a uniform glossy appearance to the surface when MARINE OIL is dry.
- Apply 2 coats of OWATROL-GLV allowing drying time between coats.
Previously Coated Surfaces
- Spot prime all exposed metal with MARINE OIL or OWATROL-C.I.P. depending on severity of rust and allow to dry.
- Apply OWATROL-GLV to primed areas to bring level with existing finish, allowing drying time between coats.
- Apply 1 or 2 coats of OWATROL-GLV over entire area; allowing drying time between coats.
Clean-up
- Clean all tools and equipment with white sprits while still wet. If allowed to dry, remove with paint stripper.
- NOTE: Any rags, soaked in OWATROL®-GLV may spontaneously catch fire if improperly discarded. Rags must be saturated with water after use or placed in a sealed, water filled metal container alternatively they can be left out flat to dry before disposing of.
Caution
- Do not apply OWATROL®-GLV direct to new metal (except aluminium), alloys inc’ steel and galvanised surfaces as Galvanic corrosion caused through contact with moisture and air can occur.
