    Paint for Metal

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Paint. Paint for Metal, Aerosol Can.

    Aerosol

    Can

    Paint metal surfaces to stop rust from starting and prevent existing rust from spreading. Scrape rusty areas clean before application. Although primer is not required for use on all materials, it can be used to prepare any surface to maximize the life and corrosion resistance of paint.
    Silicone Rubber—Silicone rubber paint stops corrosion on high-temperature surfaces, such as smokestacks, incinerators, heaters, and heat exchangers.
    Aerosol Can—Paint in an aerosol can does not require a primer.
    2 hr. Overall Dry Time—To apply paint with a 2-hour overall dry time, spray paint on, and then increase the temperature two to three times (450° to 650° F), allowing surface to cool between firings.

    EMI/RFI Shielding Conformal Coatings

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Conformal Coatings. EMI/RFI Shielding Conformal Coatings.
    Protect sensitive electronic parts, enclosures, and prototypes from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI) with these coatings. Also known as conductive paint, these coatings block EMI and RFI from disrupting electrical, data, and radio signals, which can cause circuit malfunctioning and data loss.
    For best adhesion, apply to clean, oil-free surfaces. If applying to highly chemical-resistant plastics such as PVC and PTFE, use a primer first.
    Carbon Acrylic Plastic—Carbon acrylic plastic coatings are made with ground carbon powder mixed with acrylic. They're best for RFI and low-frequency shielding applications, such as protecting jumpers and resistors in initial prototypes, since they're not as conductive as nickel and silver acrylic plastic coatings. They don’t contain metal, so they’re also great for electronics where metal-filled coatings could cause malfunction, such as metal detectors.
    Cannot Be Sold To—Coatings that cannot be sold to the listed areas are restricted by product labeling requirements.
