Looking for something more durable than Gel-Coat, easier to use than a two-component epoxy and less hazardous than an aliphatic urethane? Is a single component Direct To Metal coating (DTM) on your wish list? Have you been praying for a durable environmentally friendly marine coating? Does a bargain sound good? If you answered yes to any of these questions you came to the right place because this innovative approach rewrites the book on epoxy. That’s right, TS-100 1 Part Epoxy won’t chalk, fade or yellow like two component epoxy and it won’t spider-web like Gel-Coat making it a favorite in rust preventative paint and marine restoration applications. Now you can use our exclusive 1 Part Epoxy in your direct to metal paint applications safely and economically without the need* for primer in many instances. TS 100 One Part Epoxy is a one of a kind, super-premium marine top coat that has its origins in government spec coatings. What makes it unlike typical urethane or epoxy paint is that it produces a film that remains both hard and flexible at the same time. Its silicone epoxy base allows high flexibility, heat resistance and UV stability while providing the excellent hardness, scuff resistance and chemical resistance you expect when you typically think of an epoxy or urethane.  Since its oxygen cured rather than catalyzed it holds its color and gloss longer, is easier to work with and less hazardous to the environment. No other product we are aware of has a wider range of application possibilities. TS 100 adheres to almost anything and it self levels like a dream. Brush it on and watch the brush marks disappear before your very eyes! Industry veterans recognize this product as being something very special. This waterproof rust inhibiting paint offers excellent resistance to chemicals, spilled fuel, brake fluid and acids. It is impact resistant to 500 PSI and is heat resistant to 350+ degrees. It is color-fast, non-chalking and resists cracking, chipping and peeling. Additionally, it covers up to three times the area of typical paint because it's maximum dry film thickness is only two mils. That’s half the thickness of a sheet of paper! If that were not enough, it typically covers in just one coat! What more could you ask of any coating?
