Chemi-Guard/Chemi-Cote
Corrosion-Control Coatings
VE-PR Vinyl Ester Primer
Chemi-Guard VE-PR Primer is formulated for use with vinyl ester
systems. It is a high-elongation primer that will help decrease the curing/thermal
stresses between the topcoat and substrate. VE-PR has a low viscosity, making it easier to
roll, brush or spray than conventional polyester or vinyl ester primers.
VE 3000 and VE 3000G Vinyl Ester
Lining/Coating
Chemi-Guard VE 3000 is an excellent coating because of its unique
combination of chemical and temperature resistance, impact resistance, abrasion
resistance, and high bond strength to concrete or steel. It provides excellent chemical
resistance against strong acids, salts and solvents. It is also ideal for applications
involving exposure to thermal shock, harsh chemicals (such as secondary containment), and
outdoor environments. Its tough, textured, nonporous surface allows repeated washings and
decontaminations.
VE 3000 is available with a graphite filler (VE 3000G) for spark
testing applications or exposure to hydrofluoric acid.
Fiberglass Mat and EPHB CR Mat
Saturant or Fiberglass Mat and VE 1000 Mat Saturant

A Fiberglass Mat is used for vinyl ester or epoxy novalac systems
that require crack bridging and/or a smooth, seamless transition from the wall to the
floor coating. Ideal for clean rooms and secondary containment.
JS 3000 Chemical-Resistant Joint
Sealant
The flexible, polysulfide, 100% solids joint sealant is used with
the VE (vinyl ester) systems, providing the required chemical resistance.
EN 7000 Epoxy Novalac

This semi-gloss, orange peel texture coating provides excellent
chemical resistance against strong acids, caustics and solvents. EN 7000 offers good
abrasion and impact resistance, as ell as high bond strength to concrete or steel. Its
tough, nonporous surface allows repeated washings and decontaminations. This coating is
ideal for applications requiring secondary containment, as well as for the chemical
processing industry.
