A two component solvent based inorganic zinc ethyl silicate primer. It provides excellent corrosion protection as part of a complete coating system. ZES 60 is moisture cured fast dry coating and to be used as primer in atmospheric environments.
ZES 60 is recommended as a metallic zinc pigmented primer to provide excellent protection to steel substrates. It can be use as part of high performance systems in offshore and onshore environments including oil production platforms, refineries, bridges, tanks, pipework and structural steelworks.
