K58C
Double Strength Rapid Action Paint Stripper and Remover
A double-strength and rapid action paint remover. To remove the newer epoxy paints, as well as acrylics, vinyl and polyurethane’s, K58C is the ideal agent for the job in hand. It is a problem solver because of its special ability to remove tough paint finishes quickly and safely. That means you get more out of your paint stripping operation in terms of increased productivity and reduced labour costs. K58C is simple to use. It spreads easily and uniformly. It is used as is, never diluted, so there is no mixing problem. No complicated equipment is necessary. K58C is usually applied at room temperature by brush. It is viscous enough to adhere to vertical or inverted surfaces. It is corrosion safe on most common metals, no pitting, no etching, and no staining. Its solvent components have a reduced volatility that permits them to act on the paint film for a longer time. It is completely rinsible with water and leaves no residue on the metal surface.
