Corrosion Protection Materials: Anti-Corrosive Coating, Flexo Metal
Corrosion is a serious problem that occurs when metal surfaces gradually wear down, lose their durability, and lose their structural integrity due to environmental, chemical, or physical conditions. Corrosion protection systems are particularly important for structures exposed to the elements, such as industrial facilities, bridges, steel structures, water tanks, and roofs. Flexo Metal is a revolutionary, water-based, and environmentally friendly anti-corrosive coating .
What is Flexo Metal?
Flexo Metal is a single-component, water-based, flexible coating that protects metal surfaces against corrosion , UV rays, salt water, and harsh weather conditions. This product, which can be applied directly without requiring a primer, offers high performance in the renovation and long-term protection of worn steel structures.
Advantages of Flexo Metal
Environmentally Friendly and Safe: Because it is water-based, its VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) value is low (45gr/L). It does not contain heavy metals, chromate or harmful solvents.
Easy Application: No sandblasting required, St2 surface preparation is sufficient. Can be applied by brush, roller or airless spray.
UV and Water Resistant: Resistant to prolonged sunlight, salt water, and moisture. It also has waterproofing properties.
High Flexibility: Thanks to the flexibility it creates on the applied surface, it prevents crack formation and provides long-lasting protection on metal surfaces.
Wide Application Area: Ideal for steel structures, bridges, galvanized surfaces, roofs, water tanks and industrial equipment.
Fast Drying: It dries within 1-2 hours, waiting 6 hours is sufficient for full durability.
Where is Flexo Metal Used?
- Steel Constructions (Factories, warehouses, industrial facilities)
- Bridges and Metal Structures (Corrosion maintenance and repair)
- Water Tanks and Pipes (Drinking water tanks, seawater resistant coating)
- Roof Coverings (Renewal and waterproofing of metal roofs)
- Galvanized Surfaces (Protection of old galvanized coatings)
How is Flexo Metal Applied?
Surface Preparation: Rust, oil and dirt on the surface are cleaned.
Application: Applied undiluted by brush, roller or spray method.
Drying: Depending on the ambient temperature, it dries in 1-2 hours. The second coat can be applied after 6 hours.
Top Coat: For additional protection, top coat with Bautera Rust Guard may be applied.
Why Should Flexo Metal Be Preferred?
It's easier to apply than traditional epoxy and polyurethane coatings, doesn't require sanding, and is environmentally friendly. C4-C5 provides up to 15 years of durability in corrosive environments.
