VACUUM METALLIZING COATINGS - SP-971
SP-971 RULE 66 COMPLIANT HIGH REFLECT VM ARGENT
|
DESCRIPTION
SP-971 is a Rule 66 Compliant High Reflect, one coat Argent that has been designed to replicate Vacuum Metallized Surfaces. Formulated for use in Automotive and general purpose sealed beam directional lighting applications, SP-971 offers superb clarity, reflectivity, gloss and flow and is intended for use on smooth surface as well as multi-faceted lamp housings.
SP-971 adheres equally well to Acrylics, ABS, Polypropylene, Polycarbonate, Glass and Aluminum. In addition, due to its relatively high level of solids, SP-971 aids in covering of many minor surface imperfections, making it a candidate of choice for most low temperature lighting applications.
