    Compare our offering of paint and protective coatings to find the right material for your surfaces.

    Protective Coatings

    Used to insulate, create grips, and color-code components, these coatings resist high temperatures, light abrasion, and corrosion.
    Rubber—Can
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Protective Coatings. Protective Coatings, Rubber—Can.
    Rubber coatings withstand salt and acids.
    Coatings in a can can be dipped, brushed, or sprayed.
    Cannot Be Sold Outside United States—Coatings that cannot be sold outside of the United States do not meet product labeling requirements. VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) regulations restrict sales to the listed jurisdictions/areas.
    Sealant Primers—Although sealant primer is not required for use on all materials, it can be used to prepare any surface to maximize the life of the coating. They cannot be sold outside of the United States due to product regulations.
    Topcoats—Apply topcoat to give coated surfaces a glossy finish that resists fading. They cannot be sold outside of the United States due to product regulations.
