Hardtop AX

Hardtop AX
is a polyurethane topcoat with a robust finish, a good glossy finish that lasts and low VOC. Its robust finish with strong mechanical properties, very good chemical resistance and a low dirt pick up – combined with very good colour – and gloss retention – ensures a glossy finish that lasts. Hardtop AX has high sag resistance, will give minimal spray dust and cures at low temperatures – making it easy to achieve a smooth finish and good result. It has very good application properties by airless spray, brush and roller, making it very user friendly. The products do not contain solvents defined as hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). Hardtop AX can be used for topsides, decks, superstructures on ships, in offshore environments, refineries, power plants, bridges, buildings and for other industrial uses. Minor amounts of solvents may come in through tinting in some colours.
