Recommended Uses

Primarily designed for use in offshore splashzone maintenance, where its continued cure under immersed conditions makes it ideal for coping with tidal movements and surges. May be applied to reoxidised and slightly damp surfaces. Interzone 954 has also found extensive use in a number of other corrosive environments including rail cars, pulp and paper plants, chemical plants, jetties and sluice gates.

As part of a non-slip deck system in conjunction with appropriate aggregate.
