0800 paint it

Your ultimate defence against corrosion. Follow our expert guidelines to ensure long-lasting protection for every surface.

Steel Storage Tanks

Ensure surfaces are degreased and free of contamination using Protective Paints A925 – Metal degreaser (follow instructions as per data sheet). Ensure all Corroless data sheet are strictly followed. Ensure surfaces are free from preparation debris and are clean and dry. Apply 1st coat within 4 hours of abrasive blasting. Practical coverage is project dependent.
All data sheets can be found at the back of this manual.
