Glo-Protect B30HB
High-build, resin-modified, pigment-enhanced bituminous anti-corrosive coating for steel protection
Glo-Protek B30HB is a high-build, resin-modified, pigment-enhanced, two pack bituminous
anticorrosive coating for pipelines and structural applications. This specially modified
product is suited for hot and humid tropical weather conditions and direct exposure to
moisture. Glo-Protek B30HB cures to form a tough abrasion-resistant anti-corrosive coat
that provides excellent weather protection to steel surfaces by blocking direct moisture
effectively. Glo-Protek B30HB is also resistant to mild acids, alkalis and chemicals.
Glo-Protek B30HB provides excellent protection against steel corrosion for interior as well as exterior industrial structures, corss country pipelines, open weather structures, automobile underbody coating, pipelines, hydraulic structures, marine installations, etc. Glo-Protek B30HB offers an easy-to-use, high-performance as well as cost-effective anti-corrosive solution.

Directions for Use
Surface Preparation & Substrate Condition
- The steel surface should be roughened and cleaned by blast-cleaned to Swedish specification Sa 2½ grade minimum for optimum adhesion. Alternatively, the surface could be prepared to Swedish specification St 2 or St 3 grade by using power tools along with manual wire brushing to thoroughly remove loose rust/scales. Remove grease, oil and dirt. A rough, clean, dry and contamination-free surface is essential for optimum adhesion. Suitability of a primer use should also be determined for a particular surface and type of application before use.
- Also any previous paint, dirt and surface contaminations should be removed by scrubbing or using high-pressure water jets.
- The substrate temperature should be between 10°C and 50°C, and also the relative humidity should not be in excess of 90%. The steel surface should be cleaned by blast-cleaned

Safety Information
As a general safety precaution, care should be taken to avoid contact of liquid paint with skin and eyes and inhalation should be avoided. Air movement should be ensured with proper ventilation when applying the paint in confined spaces. Skin, eye and respiratory protection is always recommended at all times while painting
