Apply Nycote® 7-11 to metal surfaces that need protection from corrosive elements. The liquid formula can be easily applied by painting, spraying or dipping areas that need protection from aircraft fuels, oil, lubricants, phosphate ester hydraulic fluids, salt spray and water.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

  • Carefully clean surfaces of oils, grease and dust. Nycote® Thinner I followed by Nyclean™ is recommended.
  • Apply Nycote® resin by brush, dip, fill and drain, or spraying techniques.
