Fire-Guard is a marvellously effective product with the propensity to substantially retard fire or flames on coated substrates such as thatch, bamboo, timber, wood, reeds, cardboard, masonite, etc.

Fire-Guard is applied by spray, (Knap sack) or other spray applicators as well as brush or thatch can also be soaked.

Fire-Guard also has very good waterproofing, weatherproofing and protecting properties.

Fire-Guard is uv stable thus has a prolonged outdoor life expectancy.

Fire-Guard can be sprayed or brushed onto  the chosen substrate or, as in the case of  new thatch grass, this can be soaked in a bath of Fire-Guard for a few minutes before being allowed to dry for a couple of hours prior to installation.

For existing Thatch roofs Fire-Guard can be applied by spray mechanisms.

Fire-Guard consists of a water based emulsion, equipment can therefore be washed with ordinary tap water.

Fire-Guard is an opaque milky fluid with low viscosity, and will dry to a clear non shiny finish.

Surfaces to be coated with Fire-Guard should be clean and dry prior to application, free from dust, dirt, grime etc.

When applying Fire-Guard, all surfaces should be treated, both inside and outside.

Fire-Guard emits no fumes to speak of, thus indoor applications can be undertaken without specific ventilation equipment.
