Jotun Safeguard Universal ES Tie Coat Kit - Plum 4.8L
Jotun Safeguard Universal ES tie coat for antifouling systems. Ensures adhesion between epoxy primers and antifoul coatings.
Two Part Vinyl Epoxy Tie Coat for Antifouling and Coating System Compatibility
Jotun Safeguard Universal ES is a two-component polyamide cured vinyl epoxy coating designed as a tie coat between epoxy primers and antifouling systems. Supplied as a 4.8L kit in plum colour, it plays a critical role in ensuring adhesion between coating layers in marine and industrial environments.
This product is specifically formulated to act as an intermediary layer, allowing compatibility between different coating technologies. It is commonly used between epoxy systems and antifouling coatings to ensure proper bonding and long term system performance.
Safeguard Universal ES can be used in both atmospheric and immersed environments and is suitable for application on a range of substrates including aluminium, carbon steel, galvanised and stainless steel when applied over approved primers.
Designed for professional use, it delivers reliable adhesion and system integrity in demanding marine and offshore applications.
Recommended Thinner
