10. Induron’s Ceramic Epoxies
ABSOLUTE MINIMAL UNDERCUTTING
– Actually self-heals pinholes and spot corrosion
– A-Rated cathodic disbondment
UNRIVALED FILM BUILD
– Minimize the risk of holidays, and improve edge
protection, with up to 80 mils in a single coat
ULTRA-LOW PERMEABILITY
– Keep corrosive liquids away from your substrate
NON-ABLATIVE SURFACE
– Inhibits microbiological contamination and prevents
acidothiobacillus growth

23. Induron’s Recommendation
Interior System – Field Apply
Shop Priming Shortcomings
– Possible Peened Surface
– Contamination of shop primer prior to field
coating application (fluid spills, tobacco, etc)
– Potential chalking and hardening of prime coat
due to UV and/or heat exposure
– Potential for solvent entrapment in prime coat
– Damage done to primer during transportation and
construction
