- Product Highlights
- Our lab tests of HydroArmor® show this coating is extremely durable under even the worst service conditions:
- Several days at 121°C (250°F) and immersion in acidic and caustic solutions did not affect the dried film.
- Rocks bounced off the coating when test panels were subjected to the “Gravelometer” at -34°C (-30°F).
- After 1500 hours in the salt spray cabinet, the HydroArmor® coating remains intact and there is no corrosion under the coating.
- HydroArmor® dries quickly at ambient temperatures and will withstand urethane paint bakes after only 30 minutes dry time at room temperature.
- HydroAmor® is as safe to use and as easy to clean up as latex house paint.
- HydroArmor® provides better protection than any of the competitive products we’ve tested without environmental and safety problems inherent in many of the undercoatings available today.
- Easily sprayed onto overhead and vertical surfaces to seal joints

- Application
- As with any coating, all loose dirt and rust should be removed before application.
- HydroArmor® is designed to be applied with airless spray equipment. We recommend that a minimum of 20 wet mils be applied for optimum performance. We have sprayed this product with a 30:1 airless pump with a Graco airless spray gun. With this equipment, we can spray at 40 to 50 pounds air pressure using spray tips with orifi ces from 0.015” to 0.027”.
- HydroArmor® resists water wash-off after air drying 30 minutes at 45 - 55% relative humidity; if not baked, it dries through in 24 hours or less (drying is slowed by high humidity and poor air circulation).
- Until HydroArmor® dries, overspray can be removed and equipment can be cleaned with water. Dried material can be removed with Methyl Ethyl Ketone.
