Wax Underbody Protection -D 316 000 A1-

Edition 01/2008

Product Description

Wax Underbody Protection -D 316 000 A1- is an exceptional long-term corrosion protection. The Wax Underbody Protection is based on a solvent-free, oxidative drying system and provides optimal corrosion protection for the body underbody area. This long-term corrosion protection is established by its excellent adhesion at both very low and high temperatures to the metallic surface.

The product forms a light brown, elastic and non-tacky coating.

It is not necessary to combine the film at an elevated temperature.

Wax Underbody Protection -D 316 000 A1- technical application information

Application

The material is primarily used in the vehicle area.

Make sure that the base surfaces are dry.

The ready-made product is applied using brushes at the material temperature of +20 C (68 F) to 35 C (95 F). The material can be carefully warmed up to 45 C (113 F) immediately before applying (< 5 minutes) if it is required by the application technique. The oxidative hardening product can form a film on the surface after a short time. This has no impact on the corrosion protection or other properties.
