| Unicoat Paint Technology |
Equipment Description
The UNICOAT paint technology is a one coat painting system that replaces the traditional two coat primer and topcoat systems. Since only one coat is applied instead of two coats, volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions and waste generated from cleanup operations are reduced by 50 to 70%.
UNICOAT is a self-priming topcoat that is applied directly to metal without a primer. It does not contain lead or chromates. UNICOAT is polyurethane like traditional topcoats, however, it is different because corrosion inhibitors and adhesion promoters have been added.

Benefits of Use
Contains no toxic pigments (i.e. chromate, lead, etc.); reduces VOC emissions and hazardous waste generation by 50 - 70%; paint and primer cost savings; lightened paint weight on equipment and aircraft; labor cost savings since only one coat is applied; stripping cost savings since only one coat is applied.
