Hydrate
80
Traditional paints and coatings applied to corrosion give disappointingly
short-lived performance because they simply hide the underlying
and continuing corrosion - the failure is first seen by blistering
of the coating and the rapid breakthrough of rust. Hydrate
80 provides powerful protection to rusted steel surfaces, its
electrochemical function stabilises existing corrosion by converting
the iron oxides into a protective metal complex, it also combines
with surface moisture and oxygen depriving the corrosion process
of the conditions it requires. Paints and coatings applied
to a Hydrate 80 treated surface demonstrate amazing improvements
in long-term performance.
Hydrate 80 provides a superior stable barrier to prevent further
attack. The cross-linking polymer formulated to provide
the tough non-rubbery barrier tenaciously grips the metal surface
forming an ideal base for further coatings, paints or anticorrosion
wax. Importantly for long-term protection Hydrate 80 doesn’t
contain chlorine which is known to transform into corrosive hydrochloric
acid in rust converter applications causing under-film blistering
and destruction of paint finishes or other coating products |
Long-Term Performance
The long-term performance of Hydrate 80 has been proven to significantly
increase coating life in independent tests conducted by the German
TÜV organisation under conditions of VDA 621-415 (6 cycles,
or 1008 hrs) which included exposure to hot salt-spray, 100%
relative humidity and drying atmospheres with each cycle lasting
168 hours. Hydrate 80 was awarded “Practical Classics” magazine “Best
Buy” and “Product Recommended” after a long-term
trial comparing it to 12 other products - in fact Hydrate 80
was applied to more heavily corroded steel than the competition
and still outperformed them. Hydrate 80 has been used to
arrest and prevent corrosion in diverse applications - from massive
marine installations to classic and historic vehicle restoration
Hydrate 80 provides dependable long-term protection
