    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.

    Static-Control Protective Coatings

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Protective Coatings. Static-Control Protective Coatings.
    Protect sensitive electronic equipment from sparks, shorts, and sudden discharges. These acrylic-based coatings contain low-conductivity pigments to dissipate electric charge and prevent static buildup on your equipment. Reliable enough for use on semiconductors, they’re often used to shield tools, conveyors, work surfaces, and enclosures. Once cured, these coatings are flexible and durable. They also won’t crack, chip, or peel.

    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.
    Nickel Acrylic Plastic—Nickel acrylic plastic coatings are made with nickel flakes mixed with acrylic. They’re the best in our offering for protecting magnetic components, since they absorb and redirect magnetic fields. While not as conductive as silver acrylic plastic coatings, they still protect against a broad spectrum of EMI and RFI frequencies. Use them to repair small circuits on circuit boards and to coat devices such as meter and scanner housings. They have good corrosion resistance.
    Cannot Be Sold To—Coatings that cannot be sold to the listed areas are restricted by product labeling requirements.
