ColourPicker Explained

In general we sort colours for products into 2 main groups - ‘Ready Mixed’ and ‘Tinted’.
Tinted colours will always be more expensive than Ready Mixed colours as they need to be produced at the time of order using a tinting machine dispensing colourant into a base*.
During busy periods, this means that tinted colours could take longer, for example – a ready mixed colour ordered on a 3-5 day delivery might arrive within 3 days, however a tinted colour might take the full 5 days to arrive.

To find Ready Mixed colours, search "ready mixed" or select the Ready Mixed 'colour chart'. To see Tinted colours select a colour chart such as RAL, BS, NCS, etc. or search for a colour/hue to see available or related options.

To ensure fair pricing, we split colours into ‘Price Bands’ to group together similar priced colours. If you wish to search for the cheapest tinted colours, always select Price Band 1.

We make every effort to list all available colours, however we also offer a colour match service which can be accessed by contacting our Technical Team on 0113 245 5450 (option 2) or emailing [email protected]

*Colours are sold in the nearest tin size but actual paint volume per tin may vary up to 10% depending on colour

Description

Two-Component Metal Repair Paste

This two-component, solvent-free epoxy repair paste is designed for restoring worn, damaged, or corroded metal surfaces. When the dark grey base and light grey activator are combined, they form a durable mid-grey paste. The product is ideal for industrial, marine, and repair environments requiring high-strength, long-lasting repairs.

Where Can It Be Applied?

This repair paste is suitable for a wide range of metallic substrates, making it ideal for:

Worn or damaged pump shafts
Cracked engine blocks and valve casings
Corroded hulls and rudder surfaces on vessels
Leaking tank seams
Damaged flanges and hydraulic rams
Cold bonding of steel plates

Why Choose This Epoxy Repair Paste?

High Build Capability: Can be applied up to 25mm thick without slumping, allowing for substantial repairs.
Fully Machinable: Once cured, the paste can be machined for a precision finish.
Heat Resistant: Withstands dry heat up to 200°C and immersed conditions up to 60°C.
Durable and Strong: Offers excellent tensile, flexural, and compressive strength, ensuring long-lasting repairs.
Corrosion and Abrasion Resistant: Proven resistance to corrosion and abrasion for reliable performance.
Certifications: Bureau Veritas approved for marine applications and USDA compliant for incidental food contact.

How to Apply the Metal Repair Paste

Follow these steps for effective application:

Surface Preparation: Clean and degrease the surface with MEK or similar solvent. Abrade to ISO 8501/4 ST3 or abrasive blast to SA2.5.
Mixing: Combine the base and activator at a 5:1 ratio by weight or 3:1 by volume until fully blended to a mid-grey colour.
Application: Apply the paste using a spatula or applicator tool, pressing it into gaps and imperfections. Smooth off excess material with a gloved hand.
Curing: Allow to cure for at least 6 hours at 20°C before machining or loading the repaired area.
