ELECTRAGUARD CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
Mission Critical Conductive Floor Paint
ElectraGuard ESD Epoxy Floor Paint is
resistant to a variety of industrial chemicals that are used in
the manufacturing environment. Test methods and
environmental factors are an important consideration when
evaluating ElectraGuard for use with specific chemicals and long
term exposure. Your results may vary. Pretest to your specific needs
prior to use. Note:
The following testing was performed on ElectraGuard without topical coats of ElectraThane and ElectraGlaze
sealers.
