Quick cure for floor
December 1st 2008 When a metal packaging
manufacturer decided to
apply traffic safety signs to
areas of the factory floor,
RapidShield, a UV-curable
floor coating system from
Quaker Chemical was
recommended.
Applied to a prepared,
clean floor, it is cured
instantly by a portable unit
that emits UV-light, turning
the coating into a solid film
which creates a strong bond
to the substrate. The fast
cure means that within
minutes, the floor can be
used.
The Delmar Group used a
planetary grinder to prepare
the area and, using rollers,
applied RapidShield coats of
clear, safety yellow and antiskid
to create five durable
4m STOP signs and three
Zebra stripes -each taking
about 60min.
Non-flammable, low odour
RapidShield contains neither
solvents nor isocyanates and
complies with VOC and HAP
regulations. More articles from Quaker Chemical Ltd: |
