With environmentally safe VpCI® technology, your equipment and products will be effectively protected against humidity, saltwater, and oxidizing atmospheres as well as corrosive industrial, marine, and tropical environments. Most Cortec® coatings have outstanding UV resistance and Cortec® products also have excellent gloss retention, which is important when aesthetics are a consideration.
Coatings Adhesion Test - Proper applications of coatings will result in longer performance and better surface protection where coatings have been used.
Cortec VpCI® Corrverter® Water Based Rust Primer
Cortec VpCI® Corrverter® Water Based Rust Primer
Cortec VpCI® Corrverter® Water Based Rust Primer
Product Description
CorrVerter® is a fast drying, water-based one coat system (primer) that converts rusted surfaces to a hydrophobic passive layer and prevents further rusting thru the unique formulation of chelating agents and PVC resins. CorrVerter®r does not contain tannic or phosphoric acids, provides long-term corrosion protection for poorly prepared substrates, and can be topcoated with solvent-based and water-based paints with no bleeding. Cortec® Coatings Technology Video
CorrVerter® water-based primer recommended for application to rusty or poorly prepared steel surfaces where further corrosion protection is required and good surface preparation is difficult to achieve. CorrVerter® is formulated to penetrate rust, eliminate rust, penetrate to the bare metal, and stop further rusting and is recommended for use on all ferrous metal surfaces as a rust converter/paint primer. The product can be used in situations where proper cleaning or sandblasting is difficult. For outdoor top coat applications VpCI-386, VpCI-387 or VpCI-396 can be utilized. The combination of CorrVerter® and VpCI-396 provides the best immersion coating for submersion in water, salt water, hydro carbons and high salinity water.
Advantages
• CorrVerter® converts rust quickly and can be applied under varying weather conditions • Provides 1000+ hours of corrosion protection with 3-mil (75 microns) application under salt spray conditions (ASTM B 117), on pre-rusted steel parts • Can be topcoated with water and solvent-based topcoats vs. tannic or phosphoric acid-based coatings, which can only be topcoated with solvent-based topcoats • Provides excellent protection against re-rusting (better than tannic or phosphoric acid-based converters) • Water-based • Very low VOC • Non-flammable, non-combustible • Environmentally friendly, non-toxic • Works in HCl, H2S, SO2, & CO2 vapor environments
Applications
Industrial maintenance • General metal • Marine, marine equipment • Holding tanks, storage tanks • Outdoor storage, aircraft, elevators, vehicles
Application Instructions
Recommended that any loose rust be removed with a wire brush and the rusty steel surface washed with high-pressure water to remove excess salt contamination before applying the product. Brush, roll, or spray CorrVerter® with no surface show-through at 3-5 mils wet film thickness. Brush application is preferred to ensure penetration into the rust. The coating can be applied to dry or damp surfaces. The converter can be used as is or may be diluted up to 10% with water. For badly corroded surfaces, a second coat of CorrVerter® should be applied within 20-30 minutes to ensure maximum protection. Allow to air dry 12-24 hours before applying topcoat or putting the coated components into the environment.
Packaging: 1 gallon, 5 gallon plastic containers.

Product Description
VpCI®-373 is a water-based wash primer used for bonding other primers and coatings such as VpCI-386, to a variety of metal substrates. VPCI®-373 is applied at an extremely thin thickness of 0.5-1.0 mil (12.5-25 microns) DFT. When used in conjunction with topcoats, this product can extend protection significantly.
Features
• Excellent replacement for chromate treatments
• Good adhesion on surfaces which are difficult to adhere to
• Multimetal protection
• Excellent primer for aluminum
Surface Preparation
Surface must be equivalent to NACE #3 or SSPC SP2.
NACE - National Association of Corrosion Engineers
SSPC - Steel Structure Painting Council
Product Application
Product must be mixed prior to use as settling occurs over time.
Product can be applied by spray, brush, roll, or dip.
Normal WFT is 2.5 mils yielding 0.5 mil DFT.
Storage and Packaging
VpCI-373 is available in 5 gallon pails, 55 gallon drums, liquid totes, and bulk.

Product Description
VpCI®-387 Water Based Acrylic Hi-Build Topcoat is a fast drying, high build water-based acrylic one coat system (topcoat) that can be applied DTM (Direct to Metal) and provides protection in harsh, outdoor, unsheltered applications. The complex mixture of non-toxic, organic inhibitors offers protection that competes with most paints and zinc-rich primers. Provides multi-metal protection. Excellent UV resistance. Can be tinted to match colors. Cortec® Coatings Technology Video
Surface Preparation
Substrate should be free of grease, oil, dirt, fingerprints, drawing compounds, rust inhibitors, or any other surface contamination that could affect adhesion.
VpCI®-387 can be applied by spray, roll, brush, or dip.
Packaging: 5 gallon pails, 55 gallon metal drums.

Cortec VpCI®- 396 - Moisture Cure Urethane
Cortec VpCI®-387 Water Based Acrylic Hi-Build Topcoat
Cortec VpCI®-387 Water Based Acrylic Hi-Build Topcoat
Product Description:
VpCI®-396 is a high solids aromatic moisture cure urethane direct to metal primer for multimetal protection. VpCI-396 should be top coated with an aliphatic urethane top coat for best results. In addition to the outstanding barrier protection, VpCI-396 also contains Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors for additional protection. VpCI®-396 is suitable for immersed structures when applied over CorrVerter® rust converter for marginally prepared surfaces; such as ballast tanks, storage tanks, or holding tanks containing hydrocarbons to high salinity solutions. VpCI-396 forms a very hard, but flexible coating that cures in the presence of moisture in the air. DIY Video Van
