POR15 Paint Offers Extreme Heat Protection for Industrial Use

Imagine scorching exhaust pipes, blazing ovens, or high-speed mechanical components operating under extreme temperatures where conventional paints would crack, peel, or even burn away. Have you struggled to find a coating that can truly withstand such intense heat? Your search ends here.

POR-15® High-Temperature Paint represents a revolutionary product specifically engineered for extreme thermal environments, redefining expectations for heat-resistant coatings. Capable of enduring temperatures up to 648.8°C (1200°F), it effectively prevents cracking, peeling, and flaking while maintaining optimal equipment performance.

• Unparalleled Heat Resistance: Maintains stability at extreme temperatures up to 648.8°C (1200°F) without softening, melting, or combustion.
• Superior Durability: Advanced formulation prevents cracking, peeling, and flaking to extend equipment lifespan and reduce maintenance costs.
• Excellent Weather Resistance: Withstands harsh environmental conditions including UV exposure, rain, and salt spray while maintaining long-term stability.
• Outstanding Corrosion Protection: Provides effective rust prevention for metal surfaces to prolong equipment service life.
• Direct-to-Metal Application: Eliminates the need for primers or topcoats through its DTM (Direct-To-Metal) design, simplifying application and reducing costs.
• Color Retention: Maintains vibrant hues even under prolonged high-temperature exposure without fading or discoloration.
• Military-Grade Certification: Meets or exceeds MIL-C-13370 military specifications for guaranteed quality.

This versatile coating serves numerous industries requiring thermal protection for metal surfaces:

• Automotive: Protects exhaust manifolds, pipes, and mufflers from corrosion while enhancing vehicle performance.
• Industrial: Safeguards ovens, boilers, heaters, and heat exchangers to ensure stable high-temperature operation and productivity.
• Outdoor Cooking Equipment: Shields grills, smokers, and barbecue units from heat damage for extended durability.
• Aerospace: Secures aircraft and rocket engine components for reliable operation.
• General Manufacturing: Protects machinery, piping, valves, and storage tanks in high-heat environments.

Follow these simple steps for optimal results:

1. Surface Preparation: Thoroughly clean metal surfaces to remove oil, rust, and oxidation using sandpaper, wire brushes, or solvents.
2. Coating Application: Apply 2-3 thin layers after complete mixing, allowing 30-60 minutes between coats. Ensure each layer dries fully before recoating.
3. Curing Process: Air-dry in ventilated areas for 24 hours. For accelerated curing, bake below 150°C.

• For spray applications, use HLVP systems with POR-15® Thinner (maximum 10% dilution).
• This DTM product is incompatible with POR-15® Rust Prevention System or other primers.
• Serves as an upgrade replacement for POR-20, Black Velvet, Fire Seal 2000, and Factory Manifold Gray coatings.

For superior spray performance, POR-15® Thinner is recommended due to its:

• Perfect compatibility with POR-15® formulations
• Enhanced atomization for smoother finishes
• Improved flow characteristics
• Safety and environmental compliance

1. Mix paint thoroughly before thinning
2. Add thinner gradually (≤10% by volume)
3. Stir completely before spraying

• Can this paint be applied over rust? No—surfaces must be clean and rust-free.
• Is primer required? No, this is a DTM product, though roughening smooth surfaces improves adhesion.
• What is the curing time? 24 hours for air drying; baking accelerates the process.
• What is the shelf life? 2 years unopened; use promptly after opening.
• How to clean tools? Use POR-15® Thinner for equipment cleanup.
