Cromar Black Bitumen Paint is a solvent based, general purpose, bituminous black paint for waterproofing and weather protecting of steelwork, asphalt, wood and concrete. When dry it forms an odourless and taint-free bitumen film, a waterproof, weatherproof, corrosion resistant protective coating. It is resistant to low concentrations of alkalis and acids and can withstand prolonged oxidation.

Suitable for application to a wide variety of surfaces including steel, iron, lead, zinc, aluminium, concrete, stone and brick but is mainly used for the following:-

• Metal protection for any type of exterior metalwork – fire escapes, ladders, gutters etc.
• A protective coating for concrete structures, stone, brick, concrete screeds and sand/cement surfaces.

• A minimum of two coats of Black Bituminous Paint should be applied, the first coat being allowed to dry before the second is applied
• On porous surfaces where the surface being treated is porous, an initial coat of Primer should be applied
