400 °F to 550 °F Coatings

Equipment operating between 400 °F and 550 °F can be exposed to elevated temperatures, moisture, corrosive byproducts, and environmental conditions that exceed the limits of conventional industrial finishes.

For these applications, Forrest recommends a two-coat primer and topcoat system designed for cyclones, ductwork, process equipment, and other industrial components exposed to moderate heat and corrosive operating conditions.

A silicone epoxy co-polymer primer designed to provide corrosion resistance and adhesion in ambient and high temperature environments.
