Epoxy Paints

Excellent for drinking water, ozone contact, fresh and saltwater aquaculture, etc.
Epoxy paint is recognized by the EPA as nontoxic (after curing), is extremely durable and has excellent adhesion to a wide variety of materials. Whether coating fiberglass, wood, steel, concrete or even galvanized surfaces, you won't find a better paint for aquaculture.

Simply clean and dry the surface (acid-etch concrete, rinse with nonsudsing ammonia to neutralize any acid residue and use PT20 concrete sealer; prime steel and galvanized surfaces). Then mix epoxy paint parts A and B, wait 30–60 minutes and spray, brush or roll on. Recoat after about four hours, if desired. The curing temperature range is 55–125°F. Before adding live organisms, let cure for seven days.

One kit will cover 260–288 sq.ft. of smooth surface with a thickness of 4 mil (.004 inch). Epoxy is 65 to 72% solids (depending on color) and has a two-year shelf life (after long exposure to UV, it typically develops a chalky surface). Sold in 120-oz kits only (a kit is 4 parts paint and 1 part activator).
