Two Coats: The Future of Steel Protection?

Informações:

Synopsis

In modern construction environments — where schedules are tighter, labor is limited, and budgets face constant pressure — efficiency is everything. That’s why many fabricators, engineers, and asset owners are exploring two-coat systems for structural steel, rather than the traditional three coats. In this sponsored episode with CoatingsPro Magazine and AMPP Media, Sherwin-Williams’ Greg Hansen and Brian Hlinak explain how modern two-coat systems can improve shop throughput while still preserving long-term corrosion protection and appearance. Backed by industry-validated testing, these systems include the Zinc Clad 4100 primer and Sher-Loxane 800 polysiloxane finish coat from Sherwin-Williams Protective & Marine. A supplemental Q&A article on this topic is available here.
