...greater protection against Corrosion

ÉDAL

For use where the most severe industrial

corrosive conditions exist, 'Epilux 5' gives

extra-depth protection with each coat: a

single application of this remarkable coating can be made 4-5

mils thick without sagging, compared to a conventional paint- thickness of 1-2 mils. The high-solids content in 'Epilux 5' which

makes possible this saving in time and labour is only one of the

outstanding characteristics resulting from a perfect combina-

tion of Epoxy Resin and Coal Tar Pitch.

Other important advantages of

heavy duty 'EPILUX 5'

Solvent resistance superior to ordinary bituminous type coatings. Excellent water-resisting properties. Resistance to alkali and chemical attack. Excellent

flexibility, adhesion and hardness. Withstands

300°F without crazing, sagging, loss of gloss or thermoplasticity. Non-bleeding, after curing (7

days). Cures under water if necessary.

Safeguard the future of steelwork with EPILUX 5 CATALYSED COLD SETTING COATING
