Zinga Paints
Zinga offers a highly effective range of metal protection coatings, including primers, sealers, topcoats, sprays, and solvents designed for on-site application. Its signature zinc rich and cold galvanising paint—known as the Film Galvanising System—contains 96% pure zinc in its dry film, delivering long-lasting cathodic protection without toxic elements. Simple to apply and recoat, Zinga is ideal for projects requiring high-performance metal paint finishes or long-term durability in harsh environments. It's also widely used as a reliable boat and marine paint for protecting submerged or coastal steelwork from aggressive corrosion.

Zinga Cold Galvanising System
Zinga is a leading film galvanising system developed in Belgium in the 1970s, designed to provide long-lasting, active and passive protection for ferrous metals. Unlike traditional coatings, Zinga is a zinc rich and cold galvanising paint that contains 96% pure zinc in its dry film, offering galvanic protection equivalent to hot-dip galvanising. Applied with a brush, roller, or spray, it forms a strong bond with steel, working in direct contact to prevent corrosion without the immediate need for a topcoat. Zinga can be used as a stand-alone system, a shop primer, in a duplex system, or for on-site touch-up of worn or damaged galvanised structures with minimal surface preparation.
Recognised globally for its industrial durability, Zinga is trusted on bridges, power plants, water turbines, cement factories, and even marine infrastructure. Rawlins Paints supplies the full Zinga range, including aerosols and marine-specific systems for submerged metalwork such as ship hulls and offshore structures—making it an ideal boat and marine paint solution. Whether you're protecting structural steel, refurbishing galvanised frameworks, or enhancing durability on exposed components, Zinga offers reliable performance with an easy application process. It also serves as a highly effective base coat beneath compatible metal paint topcoats when decorative finishes or colour-matching are needed.
Zinga FAQs
What is Zinga and how does it differ from traditional metal paint?
Zinga is a zinc rich and cold galvanising paint that uses high-purity zinc to create a galvanic bond with steel. It protects metal by sacrificial action, unlike standard metal paint, which provides only barrier protection.
Can Zinga be used on marine vessels and submerged structures?
Yes, Zinga is widely used as a boat and marine paint, particularly on ship hulls and offshore structures. Its corrosion resistance in saltwater environments makes it ideal for marine applications.
Is Zinga suitable for repainting or repairing damaged galvanised metal?
Absolutely. Zinga is specifically designed for touching up and repairing hot-dip galvanised or metal-sprayed surfaces, restoring full protective function with minimal surface preparation.
Does Zinga need a topcoat?
No, Zinga is designed to perform as a stand-alone system, but it can be overcoated with compatible primers or topcoats for aesthetic or additional protective purposes in a duplex system.
What kind of finish does Zinga provide, and is it easy to apply?
Zinga delivers a high-quality, matte grey finish that can be overcoated if desired. It’s a single-component product that’s easy to apply and recoat by brush, roller, or spray—ideal for on-site metal protection projects.
