High Performance Aliphatic Urethane

Description

Ultimate Weathering & Chemical Defense for Metal & Masonry

Benjamin Moore® High Performance Aliphatic Urethane represents the industry standard for long-term protection on high-exposure surfaces. Designed for both exterior and interior applications where aesthetics and heavy-duty structural armor are equally critical, this polyurethane matrix shrugs off harsh weather, intense sunlight, chemical splash, and heavy impact traffic.

Best Used For:

• Exterior storage tanks, structural steel beams, and facility piping
• Masonry walls, public structures, transit stations, and bridges (Anti-Graffiti)
• High-traffic commercial floor areas exposed to forklift and tire traffic
• Industrial machinery, cleanrooms, manufacturing labs, and food facilities

Key Benefits & Features:

• Breathtaking UV Stability: Advanced aliphatic chemistry blocks sun-induced fading, chalking, or ambering over time, making it premier for exterior facades.
• Non-Sacrificial Anti-Graffiti Barrier: Resists commercial graffiti cleaning chemicals, allowing repeated spray-paint removals without destroying the underlying paint.
• Extreme Abrasion Resistance: Forms a slick, tightly cross-linked defense layer that limits scratching, scraping, and deep friction wear.
• Multi-Substrate Versatility: Bonds tenaciously over properly primed ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, structural concrete, and masonry blocks.

Technical Specifications & Handling:

• Coating Type: Two-Component Aliphatic Polyurethane (Solvent-Borne)
• Mixing Ratio: Varies by pack styling (Ensure proper volume balance between base and activator components)
• Induction & Pot Life: Check product label; mixed material has a limited working window
• Return to Traffic: Light industrial traffic in 24 hours; full structural service in 72 hours
• Cleanup: Specialized polyurethane thinners or Xylene
