Glo-Protect Fire Retardant Coating FR-401

Glo-Protect Fire Retardant Coating FR-401 works on the phenomenon of intumescence, which means it fumes when heated. This fume serves as insulation to the combustible area thereby arresting the spread of heat/flames. This Fire Retardant Coating provides:

  1. Excellent insulation to the coated substrate against fire.
  2. Flexible non-sagging coating.
  3. Good protection to steel surfaces against corrosion.
  4. Excellent application properties.

This Fire Retardant Coating is mainly used in the interior of buildings, exterior surfaces of combustible structures, the below deck area on board ships where heat insulation is provided and the lagging which covers the insulation material.

Surface Preparation

The surface to be painted should be free from all surface contaminants. Steel surfaces to be coated may be treated with Glo-Protek primer. Allow Primer to dry for 24 hours. Then apply 2 coats of Glo-Protek FIRE RETARDANT COATING FR-401works with an interval of 24 hours between the coatings. Allow the final coat to dry for 24 hours minimum before it is subject to use.
