SC#1000 is a specially formulated water-based coating, comprised of 80% vacated ceramic microscopic beads, held in suspension by viscoelastic resin binders, which are designed to reduce reverberant noise in metal panels, structures, ducts, etc. SC#1000 has excellent noise reduction and transmission loss capabilities, plus the added advantage Hy-Tech’s ThermaCels, insulating ceramic microspheres. This product forms a continuous coverage, reaching all nooks and crannies, not sectioned like an installed product and acts as an excellent weatherproof coating. A waterborne, high build formula that apply 5 times thicker than regular coatings, SC#1000 offers ceramic insulation and soundproofing combined with excellent adhesion. Unlike heavy mats which only add mass and lower the intensity of sound, not vibration, SC#1000 removes noise and unwanted vibrations by converting them into low grade heat, while adding little mass. The back and forth vibrations, mechanical energy, are converted to low level thermal energy or heat, providing structural resonance and impact noise deterrence. Low odor Use on noisy machines, metal studs and framing, motor cabinets and housings, vehicle body panels, boats, buses, RV's, airplanes, A/C equipment and ductwork, anywhere that is a major source of noise, vibrations or motion High resistance to heat transfer Prepare surface by thoroughly removing dirt, grease, loose and peeling paint, and other foreign material. Apply only to a sound, well-prepared surface. Rusted areas need to be treated with a rust stabilizing product prior to application and properly primed. Stir well before use. Do not thin, use product as is. Drying time, (approximately 2 to 4 hours), will vary depending on temperature, humidity and location. Apply using brush, roller or airless sprayer. KEEP FROM FREEZING
