SeaGuard One-Step Decking System and SeaGuard Decorative Color Flake System by Sherwin-Williams are suitable for both commercial and government ships.
The Protective & Marine division of Sherwin-Williams has presented SeaGuard One-Step Decking and SeaGuard Decorative Color Flake, its two new interior marine decking systems
specifically developed for both commercial and government applications.
The SeaGuard One-Step System is a seamless, durable, ultra-high-solids, low odour system with a unique quartz-like finish that can be formed into a cove base. It is available in eight stock colours and can be customised with logo designs and fleet colours. It works both in wet and dry spaces and it is easily applied onto several surfaces including steel, aluminium, sealed underlayment and properly cured primers.
On the other hand, the SeaGuard Decorative Color Flake System consists of an ultra-lightweight underlayment with cosmetic polymeric topcoats in a variety of colours and vinyl chip additions. The underlayment is ideal for levelling and smoothing deck irregularities such as welds seams, creating a uniform walking surface. It is approved for use in wet spaces such as heads and showers.
“We are pleased to offer the benefits of our interior decking technology under the time-tested and trusted SeaGuard umbrella. Of course, customers also benefit from the expertise of the Sherwin-Williams technical service team, who can offer their extensive product knowledge as well as manufacturer equipment training, to ensure proficiency throughout the entire coatings process,” has stated Richard Pickering, the sales director for the Protective & Marine Coatings of Sherwin-Williams.
The two new products developed by Sherwin-Williams are qualified under MIL-PRF-32584 for monolithic deck covering materials for interior shipboard applications and meet IMO 2010 FTP Code Parts 2 and 5 of Annex 1 for commercial applications.
