CRC® Zinc-It Instant Cold Galvanize

Part Number: 18412
Product Description
High-performance coating of >93% pure zinc that electrochemically bonds with ferrous metals to form a galvanic cell. It actively fights rust and corrosion. Use as a touch-up for damaged galvanized coatings. Dries quickly. Outdoor protection: 1-2 years.

Key Features:

• 93% Pure Zinc: Forms a sacrificial barrier—if the surface is scratched, the zinc corrodes instead of the metal underneath.

• Instant Protection: Provides a durable, grey matte finish that protects against salt spray, high humidity, and harsh weather conditions.

• Superior Adhesion: Bonds effectively to iron, steel, and galvanized surfaces, making it perfect for repairing damaged hot-dip coatings.

• Fast Drying: Touch-dry in minutes and can be handled in an hour, minimizing project downtime.

• Highly Versatile: Can be used as a standalone protective coating or as a high-performance primer for most topcoats.

Ideal Applications:

• Public Infrastructure: Guardrails, signposts, and lighting towers.

• Industrial Maintenance: Storage tanks, steel beams, and piping.

• Marine & Coastal: Boat trailers, docks, and seaside structures.

How to Use for a Professional Finish:

1. Clean: Ensure the surface is free of oil, grease, and loose rust. For best results, sand or wire-brush to bare metal.

2. Shake: Shake the can vigorously for at least 2 minutes until the agitator ball moves freely.

3. Spray: Apply two thin coats for maximum protection, allowing the first coat to dry before applying the second.

4. Clear Nozzle: After use, turn the can upside down and spray until only gas comes out to prevent the valve from clogging.
