The Right Formulation for All of Your Coating Needs

1000 Series Low Cure Systems are formulated for heat sensitive substrates. Products are typically formulated to cure at 250°F, but lower temperatures are possible. Powder can be applied with or without minimal substrate preheating. Products in this series will rapidly loose gloss and chalk on exterior exposure, and are best suited for interior applications. These products feature excellent physical and chemical resistance properties. Typical uses include medium density fiberboard (MDF), fiber reinforced plastics (FRP), and sheet molding compounds (SMC). Each customer's substrate and application technology must be evaluated before ordering powder.
