Rust Grip®: The Ultimate Corrosion Fighter

Rust Grip®is a two-part moisture-cured polyurethane coating that offers superior protection
against rust, corrosion, and abrasion. Unlike traditional coatings, Rust Grip® doesn't just cover
up rust and decay; it actively fights against it by encapsulating and preventing it from spreading.

Rust Grip® can be applied to a wide range of surfaces, including carbon & galvanized steel,
concrete, wood, and fiber glass. It can withstand extreme temperatures and is resistant to
chemicals, saltwater, and UV rays. Rust Grip® is an excellent choice for applications such as oil
and gas pipelines, marine vessels, bridges, and water treatment facilities.


Moist Metal Grip: The Solution for Wet and Humid Environments

Moist Metal Grip is a two part water repelling epoxy coating designed for use in wet and humid
environments. It provides excellent protection against corrosion, even in the presence of water
and moisture.

Moist Metal Grip can be applied to surfaces that are still damp, making it an ideal choice for
applications such as offshore drilling rigs, water treatment plants, and waste water treatment
facilities. This coating is also resistant to chemicals, abrasion, and UV rays, making it a versatile
option for a wide range of applications.


Lining Kote UHS: The High-Performance Lining Solution
