Versatile novolac epoxy tank coating
Tankguard Special Ultra offers a tough and durable finish. It is a top of the range tank coating with the most extensive resistance list. Being a novolac epoxy, it has a higher degree of cross-linking and is therefore more flexible in carrying products at elevated temperatures. Tankguard Special Ultra gives good over-coating and cure times with a smooth surface after application. This again results in a tank surface which is easy to clean between cargos.

BUYER NOTICE: Due to the complexities and risks within tank coatings, Jotun do not support the purchase of their Tankguard range through dealer/distributor channels. Jotun are happy to support with advice and documentation required for these types of coating projects but as they are removed from the end user the ability to control all risks involved with a coating project for a tank is limited. For these reasons, Jotun will only ensure the product quality within the can when Tankguard products are purchased via a distributor such as ourselves.
