The only Marine Paints that live up to their name, j mJUm m' JE^'-.^'mKm^^ \ tk mtm I Built to take it.
With over 126 years of leadership in protective marine coatings technology, it should come as no surprise that Woolsey Marine introduce the "First" marine, intumescent fire-retardant coatings.
These unique, protective coatings can minimize risk onboard in areas where a potential fire hazard exists: galley, engine compartment, bilge, etc.
In case of fire, materials coated with Woolsey
Fire-Retardant Coatings are less likely to ignite.
By reducing the spread of flames along a painted surface, these coatings can minimize property damage and provide that extra margin of safety for those onboard to affect an escape.
When properly applied, Woolsey Fire-Retardant
Coatings can minimize fire losos and save lives.
A Unique Protective Foam Barrier.
With exposure to heat and open flames, a surface coated with a Woolsey Fire-Retardant Coating
System will "intumesce"—swell into a layer of protective and insulative foam hundreds of times the thickness of the original paint film.
This protective foam shield expands rapidly to delay contact with the underlayment while impeding flamespread and smoke build-up.
If the fire hasn't been too extensive or burned too long, the substrate may still be serviceable. In many instances, the dry, charred foam can be scraped off and the surface repainted.
A Full Range of Colors and Finishes.
Like all Woolsey protective coating systems, these new, fire-retardant coatings come in a select range of colors and finishes to match your particular needs. Available in varnish and latex base.
Make Woolsey's new Fire-Retardant Coatings your first line of defense. The only marine paint that can handle a hot situation.
