Ultimate Linings Product UL TK 22 (High Abrasion Resistance) is a revolutionary fast set, 100% solids, flexible two component spray elastomer that gives outstanding physical performance against abrasion tear and impact.
Coating is a covering that is applied to the surface of an object, usually referred to as the substrate. In many cases coatings are applied to improve surface properties of the substrate, such as appearance, adhesion, wetability, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and scratch resistance. In other cases, in particular in printing processes and semiconductor device fabrication (where the substrate is a wafer), the coating forms an essential part of the finished product.

Ultimate Linings Product UL TK 22 (High Abrasion Resistance) is a revolutionary fast set, 100% solids, flexible two component spray elastomer that gives outstanding physical performance against abrasion tear and impact. It is designed to give exceptional values including tensile, high tear and impact resistance in severe demanding applications against abrasion and corrosion. It may be applied in single or multiple applications without appreciable sagging and is relatively insensitive to moisture and temperature allowing application in most temperatures. Its extremely fast gel time makes it suitable for applications down to -20°F.

FEATURES
Exceptional Abrasion Resistance / Exceptional Hydrolytic Stability / High Tear and Impact Resistance
Excellent Impact Dampening / Excellent Thermal Stability / Zero VOC (100% Solids) / Low Temperature Flexibility / Good Chemical Resistance / Coats Carbon or Mild Steel Metals without Primer.

TYPICAL USES
With its durable characteristics, It is intended to use as a protective lining and coating on interior of concrete, masonry and metal structures in various facilities like: Dredging / Petrol Refineries / Cargo Containers / Mining Operations / Landfill Containment / Marine Environments / Secondary Containment Water and Waste Water Treatment / Industrial and Manufacturing Facilities.

COLORS
Clear/Neutral. Custom colors are available upon request. Color Packs, when used, must be added to Part-B.


SURFACE PREPARATION
In general, coating performance and adhesion are directly proportional to surface preparation. Most failures in the performance of surface coatings can be attributed to poor surface preparation. Polyurea coatings rely on the structural strength of the substrate to which they are applied. All surfaces must be free of dust, dirt, oil, grease, rust, corrosion and other contaminants. When coating substrates previously used, it is important to consider the possibility of substrate absorption, which may affect the adhesion of the coating system, regardless of the surface preparation. Ultimate Linings recognizes the potential for unique substrates from one project to another.
Wood:
All wood should be clean, dry and free of any knots, splinters, oil, grease or other contaminants. Splintered or rough areas should be sanded.Upon full cure of the repair agent, prime the entire surface intended for coating.
Steel (Aospheric and Immersion Exposure):
Remove all oil, grease, weld spatters and round off any sharp edges from surface.
Aluminum:
Aluminum should be blasted with aluminum oxide or sand, and not with steel or metal grit. Excessive blasting may result in a warped or deformed surface. After blasting, wash aluminum with a commercially available aluminum cleaner. Allow to dry, then prime.
Brass and Copper:
Brass and copper should be blasted with sand, and not with steel or metal grit. Remove all dust and grease prior to applying primer.
Galvanized Surfaces:
Clean and degrease any contaminated surfaces before priming. Do not blast galvanized surfaces with an abrasive grit. An adhesion test is recommended prior to starting the project.
Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic:
The gel coat should be lightly blasted or sanded with 80 grit sandpaper and cleaned.
Plastic Foams:
Enhanced adhesion is obtained when the foam is mechanically abraded. When coating polystyrene, do not use a solvent-based primer.
Textiles, Canvas, Fabrics:
Adhesion to most fabrics, geothermal membranes and textiles does not require a primer.
Stainless Steel:
Stainless steel may be grit blasted and degreased before priming. Some stainless steel alloys are so inert that it is not possible to achieve a satisfactory bond. An adhesion test is recommended prior to starting the project.
New and Old Cast Iron:
Blast with a steel grit and degrease before priming. Old cast iron is difficult to prepare for a satisfactory bond. It can absorb oil and water soluble contaminants that will keep returning to the surface after the coating system has been applied and affect the coating system adhesion. An adhesion test is recommended prior to starting the project.
