Equipment and Materials

Fast industrial finish. A very rapid‐drying industrial finish, with a performance markedly superior to existing paints, has been introduced by Drynamels Ltd., of Shaftmoor Lane, Birmingham 28. The new material, known as Drynamels Fast Industrial Finish BT, is a gloss paint, based on a short oil, non‐yellowing alkyd, which air‐dries tack‐free in 10–15 min., and is hard‐dry in one hr. at temperatures between 60°–70°F, as measured by method 8 DEF 1053. It can also be stoved if desired, being fully cured by 15–20 min. at 150°F for example.
