Jotun Hardtop Optima

Jotun Hardtop Optima is a two-pack, polysiloxane coating with the ultimate gloss and colour retention and does not contain isocyanates. It is a high solids product with outstanding gloss and colour retention that provides superior corrosion protection.

Jotun Hardtop Optima has optimal adhesion to selected primers, while maintaining its flexibility throughout the system’s working life. Extra focus has been put on achieving a formulation that ensures predictable curing and as a result is fully recoatable at any stage of curing. The recommended selection of compatible primers is limited to enable a long-life world class system.

Jotun Hardtop Optima is recommended to be used as a topcoat over an epoxy system where a durable, high grade finish is required in aggressive atmospheric exposure. Recommended for topside, deck and superstructure areas in the marine industry and recommended for offshore environments, refineries, power plants, bridges and buildings as well as a wide range of industrial structures in the industrial/protective sectors.
