Protection of capital and infrastructure, as well as safety, are important for those who manage Bridge and Highway systems. Waterborne acrylic industrial coatings are a great choice to fulfill these needs as they provide excellent protection and corrosion resistance, are environmentally friendly, exhibit low-odor, provide the ability for brilliant color and are easy to apply.

Applications
Typical acceptable substrates for coating include: steel, galvanized steel, aluminum, concrete or masonry, plastic and wood.

Waterborne acrylic maintenance coatings have been successfully utilized for over twenty years in these environments and are suitable for bridges spanning intercostals waterways as well.

Oil/Alkyd Paints: Oil base paints were the first factory-made paints. Traditionally, resins derived from natural oils such as linseed oil were used, but modern oil resins called alkyds offer numerous advantages over natural resins. The main difference between an oil or alkyd and a latex paint is the vehicle or carrier of the resin. In a latex paint, water is the vehicle. In oil paint, a solvent, such as paint thinner or mineral spirits is used.
Today, 100% oil paints are seldom used. Alkyd paints consist of natural drying oils combined with alkyd resin, which is a harder substance. The development of the synthetic resins has made it possible to produce more consistent, higher quality alkyds. An alkyd, therefore, is a synthetic resin blended with oil. There are many types of alkyd resins, resulting in many types of alkyd paints.

Protection of capital and infrastructure as well as safety are important for those who manage Marine and Coastal sites. Waterborne acrylic industrial coatings are a great choice to fulfill these needs as they provide excellent protection and corrosion resistance, are environmentally friendly, exhibit low-odor, provide the ability for brilliant color and are easy to apply.

Applications
Typical acceptable substrates for coating include: steel, galvanized steel, aluminum, concrete or masonry, plastic, and wood.

Although not typically suggested first, Waterborne acrylic maintenance coatings have been successfully utilized for over twenty years in these environments and are suitable for bridges spanning intercostals waterways, as well as light houses. They have also been successfully used on ship interiors, as well as exteriors of stationary vessels.

Some advantages of oil/alkyd paints:

Exceptionally durable and washable
Adhere, flow, and level well – very good brushing qualities
Perform well at lower temperatures
Tolerate poor surface preparation; have more bite onto the surface

Oil/alkyds also have some drawbacks over latex paints. The solvent vehicles have more odor than latex, they yellow with age, and require solvent for clean up, rather than soap and water.

Warning
WARNING! If you scrape, sand or remove old paint, you may release lead
dust. LEAD IS TOXIC. EXPOSURE TO LEAD DUST CAN CAUSE SERIOUS ILLNESS,
SUCH AS BRAIN DAMAGE, ESPECIALLY IN CHILDREN. PREGNANT WOMEN SHOULD
ALSO AVOID EXPOSURE. Wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to control lead
exposure. Clean up carefully with a HEPA vacuum and a wet mop. Before
you start, find out how to protect yourself and your family by
