    Basecoat Details

Designed to provide 30 and 60 minutes fire resistance on standard structural steel members in internal environments available in 2.5kg, 5kg and 20kg containers. It provides an easier and more efficient alternative to cladding steel members in plasterboard.



    Topcoat Details


    Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat is an oil based, decorative flame-retardant paint used to decorate and complete Thermoguard fire protection upgrading systems. Available in both Eggshell and Gloss finishes in nearly all BS, RAL and NCS colours.



    Each Pack Contains:


    • 3m² - 2.5kg Thermocoat WI and 2.5lt Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat Eggshell or Gloss
    • 6m² - 5kg Thermocoat WI and 2.5lt Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat Eggshell or Gloss

    • 24m² - 20kg Thermocoat WI and 5lt Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat Eggshell or Gloss



    Surface Preparation


    Steelwork to be coated with Thermoguard Thermocoat WI must be primed with an anti-corrosion primer suited to the intended environment of the building, overcoatable with normal paint and applied to the primer Manufacturer’s Specification. If your steel is bare, we can suggest after cleaning/preparation, mild steel can be primed with Thermoguard Steel Fire Paint Primer. If the steel has been galvanised then surfaces should be treated with Teamac Mordant Solution/ ‘T Wash before priming with Thermoguard Steel Fire Paint Primer.

    Before applying Thermoguard Thermocoat WI, patch prime any damaged areas of primer and ensure the surface is dry, free from rust, oil, grease, dust and other contaminants. Existing decorative finishes must be removed.



    System Application


    To suitably primed steel, apply 1 coat of Thermocoat WI at 1.2m² per kilogram (650 microns WFT), allow to dry (minimum 10 hours at 20°C). Then apply 1 coat** of Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat Eggshell or Gloss at 8m² per litre in the colour of your choice.

    *650 microns WFT can be achieved in a single coat but multiple coats may be needed depending on your application.

    **1 coat of Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat is normally sufficient but for dark contrasting colours 2 coats may be required.



    Application Checklist


    The following instructions are for on-site application only. For offsite application, refer to the Technical Department.
