NanoPrep — R230 TopCoat
Mid-gloss waterbased industrial topcoat — the approved finishing system for NanoPrep, providing long-term UV and corrosion protection.
A waterbased topcoat, purpose-built for NanoPrep
ReziSafe R230 TopCoat is a mid-gloss, single-pack, self cross-linking industrial waterbased topcoat that offers excellent surface protection. It has been developed as an ideal topcoat for NanoPrep, capable of successfully priming damp rusty surfaces, galvanised steel, aluminium, or stainless steel with minimum surface preparation.
R230 provides strong UV protection, making it suitable for protecting coated assets against external weathering and environmental elements over the long term.
Key benefits
UV Protection
Provides strong resistance to UV degradation, protecting coated assets exposed to external weathering.
Mid Gloss Finish
A clean, professional mid-gloss finish suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
Single Pack Formula
Self cross-linking — no complex mixing ratios, simple and straightforward to use on site.
Minimal Surface Prep
Can be applied over damp, rusty, galvanised, aluminium, or stainless steel surfaces.
Surface preparation
Metals, bare rusty steel, galvanised steel, aluminium and stainless steel should be prepared and coated with NanoPrep as per its specification (refer to TDS and application sheets). For prepainted surfaces, simply remove any grease, oil, dust or dirt before application.
Application
Thoroughly stir paint and contents before and during use with a wide flat stirrer. Avoid application or drying in excessive hot conditions or temperatures below 10°C. For best results, always apply two coats.
Brushing / Rolling
For small areas, use R230 as is. For larger areas, thin with water by approximately 10–15% (100–150mL per litre).
Spray — Conventional or Airless
Thin with water by approximately 10–15% (100–150mL per litre). With smaller tip guns, further thinning could be required.
Protection
Use effective ground or drop sheets to protect the surrounding area from overspray or spillage.
Drying, coverage & clean up
Drying Times
Under normal conditions: touch dry in 30 minutes; recoat after 2 hours.
Coverage
8–12 square metres per litre, depending on porosity and roughness of the surface. Allow extra when spraying, as certain structures and shapes can cause significant loss due to overspray.
Clean Up
Wash with cool water and clean all application equipment and utensils immediately after use. R230 is a tough, resistant coating once dry and will be difficult to remove if left to cure on equipment.
