Dead-End is a one component milky liquid designed to be applied as a primary coating onto metal surfaces to help prevent rust and as an undercoat, Dead-End is specially good when used with Sno-Cote, No. 42 on our product list, on metal roofs. Dead-End has excellent vapour barrier properties as well as adhesion properties. Dead-End works very well when painted onto steel reinforcing before enclosing the reinforcing in concrete, in helping to prevent the reinforcing from rusting.
Dead-End acts as an excellent bonding agent primer and undercoat between masonry, mortar, plaster, off shutter concrete etc. and water miscible over coats
Dead-End is water miscible, thus equipment can be washed with ordinary tap water while still wet.
The substrate must be clean, dry and stable before applying Dead-End.
Coverage
Up to 12 square meters per liter (Kg) depending on the substrate.
Application
Dead-End can be applied by brush roller or spray applicators.
