HMG Paints has introduced a single
stage, 2k polyurethane topcoat,
Monothane, which is formulated for
applying directly onto a variety of
substrates without need for a primer.

A single coat, gloss finish, it is
suitable for mild steel, aluminium,
galvanised steel, castings and
difficult-to-paint substrates like
uPVC, polystyrene, GRP and sheetmoulded
composites plastic, giving
excellent mechanical properties
similar to powder coatings.

Monothane’s pigment quality and
high film build enable most paint
jobs to be carried out in a single
stage, reducing process times and
product use, while force drying times
down to 20min further increases
paintshop productivity. Monothane
can be applied by airless, air-assisted,
conventional gravity and HVLR
spray guns, or even brush applied,
giving coverage of 18-24m2/l at 25
microns film thickness, depending
on colour and finish.
