AquaShield 501 BR

Aqueous Barrier Coating

AquaShield 501 BR is a fast-drying aqueous coating that exhibits excellent barrier properties against oil and grease. The efficiency of the coating as a barrier is influenced by the smoothness of the substrate and the applied coating weight. For best results, application of two coats is recommended.
