Q- I like KBS Coatings’ selection of colours but do colours require porous pigments which will let moisture through the coating?
A- A basic understanding of paint chemistry might help. Paint is simply a combination of resins and pigments. Porosity or the lack thereof is determined by the proper choice of resins. Pigments, which are fully encapsulated by these resins, simply provide colour. In other words, pigments don’t determine porosity and resins don’t determine colour. Some pigments are indeed porous; in fact black (carbon) is most porous of all. Yet when this extremely porous carbon pigment is encapsulated within the correct resins, the result is a non-porous coating. This obviously holds true for less porous pigments as well. |

 |
GLOSS BLACK: This strikingly rich black finish is a popular choice for all automotive restoration applications. With a long lasting wet shine! |
|
 |
SATIN BLACK: A rich chassis finish for those wanting to look “original”. This vibrant black coating has a low lustre uniform sheen which is comparable to OEM finishes.. |
|
 |
GREY: A medium grey coloured coating that cures to a smooth diamond hard finish! Ideal for sealing & protecting steel, concrete, cinder blocks, warehouse floors, plywood and more! |
|
 |
SILVER: Enriched with a solidifying metal flake. Ideal for heavily pitted surfaces. Choose this finish for industrial applications due to its high abrasion resistance. |
|
 |
CLEAR: A superior clear resin great for sealing concrete and repair of fibreglass surfaces. Use as a bonding agent for a permanent seal. |
|
 |
OFF-WHITE: The toughest white metal primer you’ll ever use! Perfect colour choice for all light coloured topcoats. |
|
 |
BLUE: A medium cobalt blue with very high levels of coverage and of course rock hard like all RustSeal formulas. |
|
RUSTSEAL INDUSTRIAL COLOUR SERIES:
These four industrial colours are our most powerful versions of RustSeal.
All four of them contain high concentrations of solidifying metal flake and micronised iron oxide for extreme abrasion, corrosion and impact performance. |
 |
GREEN: This deep glossy forest green contains high levels of micronized corrosion barrier pigments with high flow and coverage properties similar to the Iron Red but with a topcoat like finish and is the most attractive colour of our Industrial Series. |
|
 |
IRON RED: A rich glossy dark red iron oxide with high flow and coverage properties, ideal in a multitude of industrial applications where high coverage and abrasion resistance are required. |
|
 |
GALVANIZED STEEL: We’ve replicated the look of an industrial galvanized matte finish with this new colour formula of RustSeal, while enhancing the UV stability. The Galvanised Steel colour uniquely forms a natural oxide layer very quickly, which protects the coating and forms an even stable colour with little need for topcoating. |
 |
YELLOW: Is a full spec industrial yellow with micronized corrosion barrier pigments in a crazy tough colour that is well recognised on any work site as New Cat Yellow, heavy vehicle maintenance will never be the same! |
