Excalibur Paint and Coatings Receives Product Approval

September 7, 2010
Excalibur Paint and Coatings, Ltd. announced the approval by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) of its Aqua–Thane™ (patent pending) low-VOC, 2K acrylic waterborne polyurethane topcoat and OZWBP Series waterborne three-component organic zinc rich epoxy primer for use on bridges exposed to severely corrosive conditions.

WITCHITA FALLS, TX - Excalibur Paint and Coatings, Ltd. announced the approval by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) of its Aqua–Thane™ (patent pending) low-VOC, 2K acrylic waterborne polyurethane topcoat and OZWBP Series waterborne three-component organic zinc rich epoxy primer for use on bridges exposed to severely corrosive conditions.

The TxDOT is committed to using products that help the agency comply with environmental regulations and, as importantly, minimize its impact on the environment. Where it has been possible, the agency has sought to approve paint and coatings that can replace conventional solventborne systems with low- or zero-VOC alternatives.

Aqua–Thane, launched in 2010 by Excalibur, is the first commercially usable waterborne polyurethane from a U.S. company that offers outstanding performance in severely corrosive environments. Aqua-Thane provides excellent gloss retention, corrosion resistance, solvent and chemical resistance, abrasion resistance, and exceptional hardness and flexibility while offering superior adhesion to a wide variety of surfaces including steel aluminum, plastics, galvanized metal (both electroplated and hot dipped), PVC, polypropylene and fiberglass composites.
