“MONOBRITE” WATER BASED ALUMINIUM PASTES

The water based paste range is manufactured using Diethylene Glycol. The pastes also pass through a passivation process allowing them to be used in water-based applications. As a result this range of pastes has a level of stability suitable for many industrial coating applications. This product range is to be expanded during the next 6 months, with newly developed grades offering higher levels of passivation and technical excellence.
