Antifouling 4L/1gal 4.3kg/9.5lbs (3K) Black

AS601 is an incredibly tough, 3-component anti fouling paint which forms a durable matrix of molecular bonds (transformation into ceramic) 

What is the function of amphiphilic polymer?

Amphiphilic polymers are polymers in which hydrophilic and hydrophobic areas alternate.

The hydrophilic areas form a film of water around the polymer that masks the surface to the organisms. These can no longer identify the surface, unambiguously, and prefer not to settle on it. Living beings always seek out the most favorable habitat for reproduction.

This world’s leading antifouling stores more and releases less non-biocidal agents, resulting in by far the longest maintenance interval  currently available.

Reachable area 

• 2 layers +/- 308gr/m2 - 286ml/m2  200 micron = 14m2 

• 1 layer   +/- 154gr/m2 - 143ml/m2 100 micron = 28m2

• 2 layers +/-  0.08lbs/ft²-1.30oz/ft² 8 mil = 140ft2

Application information / How to use

Ambient temperature: 5-30°C / 41-86°F

Avoid direct sunlight and/or high humidity.

IMPORTANT

Wear a full-face chemical respirator mask, safety suit and latex or nitrile gloves

The AS601 system can be applied directly or indirectly on all surfaces (porous and non-porous) such as concrete, steel, wood, acrylic, gypsum, painted or unpainted surfaces, indoors, or outdoors. The surface underneath will be superbly protected against erosion and corrosion and will stay cleaner longer. Cleaning becomes quicker, easier, and less expensive, as special cleaning agents are unnecessary.

Application information

The AS601 paint can be applied directly or indirectly on all surfaces (porous and non-porous) such as concrete, steel, wood, acrylic, gypsum, painted or unpainted surfaces, indoors, or outdoors. The surface underneath will be superbly protected against erosion and corrosion and will stay cleaner longer. Cleaning becomes quicker, easier, and less expensive, as special cleaning agents are unnecessary.

Corrosive Conditions or if problems can be expected with the substrate.

In case of corrosive conditions (Marine/Steel/Aluminium) or if can expect other problems with the substrate a zinc rich primer should be used prior to the application. A surface primer should pass the ASTM D3359 adhesion test.5. 

Make sure the surface is free from any contamination and dirt. A zinc rich primer can be used in case of problems with the substrate.

Warning the surface must be completely dry before application and must stay dry for 6 hours after application after application!

A 3-Component Ceramic paint System

Mix the can AS601B-with the AS601A by pouring can B into can A, or measure exactly by net weight in a ratio of 7:1:2 and mix very well, add the entire content of Part AS601C or measure exactly by net weight in a ratio of 9:1 and mix thoroughly with a power agitator. Carefully pour the mixed contents into a professional paint sprayer, and spray or roll in thin layers until the surface reaches your desired thickness. Depending on the surface, material and structure, different application techniques can be used (such as paint rollers or brushes). Let the surface dry for 24 hours. It is touch-dry in 1 hours, after 4 hours, 85% cured, and the remaining 15% (transformation into ceramics) is fully cured after 7 days. Be aware that the mixed contents cannot be stored longer than 3 hours. The surface can simply be maintained with a high pressure washer at 80 bar using our biologically degradable Reactivating Shampoo.

Tool cleaning

The individual components, as well as the mixing system of the paint sprayer, can be diluted and cleaned using our Steril Cleaner.

Storage and handling

Store in dark and dry conditions at room temperature.
