Amerlock 2's low solvent level meets most VOC requirements, reduces the chances for film pinholing and solvent entrapment at the substrate-coating interface, often a major cause of coating failure with conventional epoxies and lower solids systems. Amerlock 2 is available in a variety of colors, and therefore does not require a topcoat. For extended weatherability or special uses, a topcoat may be desired.
Typical Uses
Amerlock 2 is designed for use in a variety of areas, even those where surface preparation is impossible. As a maintenance coating, Amerlock 2 protects steel structures in industrial facilities, bridges, tank exteriors, marine weathering, offshore, oil tanks, piping, roofs, water towers and other exposures. Amerlock 2 has good chemical resistance to splash/spillage, fumes and immersion in neutral, fresh and salt water (see resistance table). Contact your PPG representative for specific information.
