The System
The first coat of the system is with FlameProof Intumescent Base Coat, which is a two pack waterborne base coat which requires mixing before use. The second coat is with FlameProof Clear Finish, which is a single pack spirit based sealer.
Both these products are included in each pack of FlameProof Fire Retardant Varnish.

If applied to a larger area, the degree of fire protection intended will not be achieved and subsequent adhesion problems may be encountered.
