Aquazinga, a two-pack anti-corrosion system providing cathodic protection to ferrous metals, and can be used as an alternative to hot-dip galvanisation or metallisation. Designed to withstand high temperatures (up to 600°C) and corrosive environments and severe conditions such as ballast tanks, turbine exhausts and high-heat pipelines.
- Two-pack system
- Use as unique, standalone system or as a duplex system
- Touch dry in 30 minutes, fully cured in 48 hours
- Works in constant temperatures up to 600°C
- Highly resistant to abrasion
- Has a Ph range of 5.5 to 9.5
- Can be overcoated with a wide range of compatible topcoats - contact our technical team on 0113 2455450 for more details
Aquazinga is a two pack 100% water-based anti-corrosion system providing cathodic protection to ferrous metals, and can be used as an alternative to hot-dip galvanisation or metallisation.
Aquazinga is based on inorganic zinc silicates and has an excellent resistance to abrasion, designed to withstand corrosive environments and severe conditions, including high temperatures (up to 600°C).
Apply Aquazinga on a clean surface by brush and roller (small touch up or stripe coats) or conventional spray-gun - but not by airless spraying. Do not dilute or thin Aquazinga.
Please note - This product is only available on a 3-5 Working Day delivery option.

Application
Aquazinga is ready for use. Never dilute or thin.
Refer to the product data sheet for details on applying by brush, roller or sprayer.
For more specific and detailed recommendations concerning application, please contact our technical team on 0113 2455450. For detailed information about the health and safety hazards and precautions for use, refer to the safety data sheet in the attachments tab above.
Mixing
Stir the binder in its original can and pour the zinc powder progressively into the binder while mixing until a homogeneous mixture is obtained. It is recommended to filter the Aquazinga after mixing through a 150 μm (100 mesh) sieve.
Aquazinga must be thoroughly mechanically stirred to achieve a homogeneous liquid before application. The liquid must be stirred continuously.
Cleaning
Immediately after using the spraying equipment, it must be rinsed with fresh water. Brushes and rollers should also be rinsed with water. Do not wait longer than 10 minutes before rinsing the spraying equipment if you have stopped spraying Aquazinga.
Recommended System
Unique System
Aquazinga is used as a stand-alone system, applied in 1 layer between 80 and 90 μm DFT or 2 layers of 60 μm DFT.
When applied in a DFT (Dry Film Thickness; to be measured above the peaks of the roughness profile) higher than 120 μm the coating can start to crack.
Excessive thickness should be avoided as it will reduce the effectiveness of the system.
Duplex System
In a duplex system, Aquazinga should also be applied in one layer of 50 to 80 μm DFT.
- The surface of the Aquazinga should be free from zinc salts and other contaminations prior to application of a topcoat
- Aquazinga can be topcoated with a wide range of compatible sealers and topcoats
To avoid pinholes when topcoated, use the mist coat/full coat technique.
For application of water-based topcoats, contact our technical team on 0113 2455450 for more details.
Drying Times
For 80 μm DFT at 20°C (ambient temperature) in a well-ventilated environment:
- Touch dry: 30 minutes
- Dry to handle: 1.5 hours
- Fully cured: 48 hours
