Flame-Retardant Coatings
Use these coatings in kitchens, furnace areas, and ships on plastic, metal, wood, and masonry. Apply with a brush, roller, or sprayer. The size listed is the combined total of the two parts.
Clear coatings are frequently used on wood—use one coat on sealed wood and two on unsealed. They can be used outside without breaking down, but prolonged exposure to UV light may cause them to yellow.
White coatings are frequently used on walls, ceilings, doors, and stairwells.
