HMG Paints’ new two-component, high solids polyurethane system — CFB 2K System — is bringing a high gloss finish more accustomed to vehicle refinishing to the agricultural and construction equipment (ACE) and haulage market. 

CFB 2K Primer can be used wet-on-wet and has been formulated to provide excellent sanding properties, adhesion and corrosion protection for steel substrates used throughout the ACE marketplace.

Alongside the primer, the system is said to deliver a great finish for both OEM’s and refinishes due to the excellent flow properties of CFB 2K Topcoat. CFB 2K Topcoat produces a high-gloss finish with excellent gloss retention, and provides resistance to chemical and atmospheric attack, which is ideal for demanding environments.

The CFB 2K System can be applied via compliant spray gun, pressure pot or airless/air-assisted and provides a host of economic and environmental benefits. As a high-solids product, CFB 2K significantly reduces volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions during production and application. Additionally, the primer and topcoat utilize the same hardener and thinners reducing costs and stock holding for the applicator.

The CFB 2K System will also utilize HMG’s new ColorBase Color Box which features 2400 color chips, displayed in chromatic order within 20 fan decks. The ColorBase Color Box has cross references to a number of colors from the ACE industry and users can also chip up against a product to identify the perfect color. Colors are produced using HMG’s Unit colorants, making CFB available in a wide variety of additional colors including popular RAL and British standard variations.

The CFB 2K System is said to be an ideal coatings solution for use on transport and haulage equipment, trailers, slurry tanks, site dumpers, earth moving equipment and other machinery and equipment. The CFB 2K system is available nationwide via HMG’s network of distributors who offer color matching services and fast delivery services.
