How does the ‘MCU’ system compare with older systems like red lead, vinyl and chlorinated rubber?
‘MCU’ has combined, for the first time, surface tolerance and ease of application with a true high performance coating. This is our strength. Tests consistently show MCU’s systems to be more surface tolerant and better performing than red lead primer systems, with easier application and faster immersion times than vinyl’s with better overcoating performance than alkyds. Our high solids MCU-Coatings meet every VOC and environmental requirement and not only replace these older standards, but actually make them less desirable even if they could be used. Our 25 year successful record of replacing vinyl’s on major hydro, marine, and specialty projects is well known, and our overcoating track record on over three thousand bridges, hundreds of major hydro, marine, wastewater, offshore, petrochemical, and military projects proves their advantages and appropriateness for replacing alkyd and chlorinated rubber coatings for maintenance painting.
