Revolutionary Pre-Treatment For Powder Coating

Liquiguard®, an unprecedented water based non-hazardous, non-toxic coating developed for water proofing and rust and corrosion protection, now finds a unique application in the powder coating industry. Liquiguard’s anti-rust and bonding properties make it an excellent replacement for various phosphate pre-treatments.

Numerous benefits of Liquiguard pre-treatment are:

1. Pre-treating with Liquiguard requires just two steps, cleaning and coating the part.
2. Reduction in time used for pre-treatment results in better work flow and efficiency and savings.
3. Large parts can be sprayed or brushed with Liquiguard.
4. If rust spots are missed in the cleaning process, Liquiguard will isolate and inhibit rusting.
5. Its non-toxic nature precludes the need for extraordinary measures in its use or disposal.
6. Liquiguard has shown excellent tolerance in salt spray tests
