Aeroflex 948-acgw Insulation Coating 1 Gallon Uv Protection

Product Description

The AEROFLEX 948-acgw is a water-based acrylic latex coating designed to protect flexible foam insulation in exterior applications. It forms a durable, semi-gloss white finish that shields insulation from UV degradation and weathering. Formulated as a pure acrylic emulsion, it complies with US energy codes that mandate painted protection for insulation exposed to outdoor environments. One gallon covers up to 400 square feet. Dry time is 4 hours, with a full cure at 24 hours. Licensed HVAC technicians and mechanical insulation contractors use this coating as the finishing step on exterior pipe and duct insulation systems.

This coating is suited for exterior mechanical insulation installations where code compliance and UV resistance are required. It is applied over Aeroflex insulation products on outdoor refrigerant lines, chilled water piping, and similar exterior mechanical systems. The minimum application temperature is 50 degrees F. It can be applied by brush or roller, making it practical for both straight runs and irregular surfaces. The one-year shelf life applies to properly stored, unopened containers.
