Frequently Asked Questions
What makes STEEL-IT Polyurethane unique?
It contains 316L stainless steel pigment, forming a weldable metallic barrier that resists corrosion, abrasion, chemicals, and UV.
Can it be applied directly to metal?
Yes. It is designed for direct-to-metal application without primers in many cases.
Is the finish weldable?
Yes. After a full 7-day cure, surfaces coated with STEEL-IT Polyurethane can be welded and easily touched up.
What industries use this coating?
Common applications include automotive, marine, aerospace, industrial maintenance, food processing, and construction.
What is the recommended coating system?
Typically two coats of STEEL-IT 1002 Topcoat at 3 mils each for 6 mils DFT. For harsher environments, up to 9 mils DFT is recommended.
