Impact-Resistant Reusable Peel-Away Coatings for Metal
These soft, pliable coatings add cushion and absorb shock. Use them to protect tools, dies, and other parts during shipping and storage. To apply, heat coatings and dip the object. Once removed, coatings can be melted again for repeat use.
Solvent-based coatings won’t dry out, even when stored over a long time.
Water-based coatings have no odor and won’t leave an oily residue once removed.
Corrosion-Resistant Reusable Peel-Away Coatings for Metal
Protect tools, dies, and other parts during shipping and storage with these durable, removable coatings. After peeling, they leave a greasy film for continued corrosion protection. To apply, heat coating and dip the object. Once removed, coating can be melted again for repeat use.
Abrasion-Resistant Reusable Peel-Away Coatings for Metal
Protect tools, dies, and other parts during shipping and storage with these durable peel-away coatings. They resist abrasion, moisture, and corrosion. To apply, heat coatings and dip the object. Once removed, coatings can be melted again for repeat use.
Solvent-based coatings won’t dry out, even when stored over a long time.
Water-based coatings are the most durable peel-away coatings we offer.

Peel-Away Coatings for Metal
These coatings are often used on castings, dies, and mirrors to prevent rust, abrasion, and moisture penetration. Water-based coatings are low odor, so they’re a good option for use in enclosed areas. Apply with a brush, roller, or sprayer.

Clean-Away Coatings for Metal
Protect metal parts from corrosion. Also known as rust-inhibiting film, these coatings can be removed with a simple degreaser or mineral spirits.
Wax coatings meet MIL-C-16173 for corrosion-resistant compounds that dry to thin, easily removable films. Grade 4 coatings dry to a nontacky finish that’s suitable for environments exposed to high humidity and chemicals. Grade 2 coatings dry to a slightly tacky, self-healing film that lubricates as it protects.
Mineral oil coatings don’t fully dry, so they leave a tacky film. Coating with a maximum temperature of 250° F lubricates as it protects and can be used as a start-up lubricant for stored machinery.
Coatings in a jug can be dipped, brushed, or sprayed.
Coatings that cannot be sold to the regions listed are restricted by product labeling requirements or exceed local regulatory limits on VOCs (volatile organic compounds).

Food Industry Wipe-Down Coatings for Metal
These coatings are NSF registered H1 for incidental food contact. Designed to protect food-processing equipment from corrosion after washdowns, use them to seal metal surfaces, resist moisture, and lubricate moving parts between processes.
Easy-Remove Coatings
Spray these thin coatings onto most types of metal, plastic, and glass for a washable coating that protects the underlying surface from scratches. They can be easily peeled off if removed within six months.

Protective Coatings for Circuit Boards
Shield circuit boards from flux, solder, conformal coatings, and high temperatures. Heat resistant up to 640° F, these temporary coatings are most often used to protect open through-holes and components during wave soldering. Coatings can also act as a short-term adhesive to keep parts in place when you’re soldering a two-sided SMT circuit board. An alternative to masking tapes that require cutting to shape, these gel coatings flow easily into small spaces and don’t leave a residue when removed. They’re also known as solder masks. Product regulations restrict sales to the listed jurisdictions/areas.
Choose peel-away coatings if you use a solvent-based cleaning process or don’t clean your circuit boards. Coatings with a 15-min. overall dry time cure more evenly than peel-away coatings with a one-hr. overall dry time, so they can be applied in thick layers. They’re also nonflammable. Peel-away coatings with a one-hr. overall dry time produce low odors because they don’t contain ammonia.
