PTI PAINT REMOVERS

PTI-PRG PAINT REMOVER GREEN

PTI Paint Remover Green is a non-flammable fast acting paint remover that is formulated to easily lift most aircraft, automotive and marine coatings. This paint remover conforms to MIL-R-81294D TYI & II Class 2A. Due to its powerful and fast acting characteristics this remover is able to lift multiple layers with one application in minutes. Wash away action with water forms a foamy emulsion that gets cracks, seems, moldings and crevices clean. Paint Remover Green is very thick /viscous giving the product excellent clinging ability to horizontal and vertical surfaces. This product is considered hazardous under OSHA Regulations.

PTS-202 PAINT REMOVER

PTS-202 is a biodegradable peroxide based paint remover that is intended to remove the most resilient coatings from metal and composite surfaces. This is a stable paint remover that will not corrode the metal. PTS-202 works by breaking through the film of the paint and lifting the paint off in sheets instead of turning the paint to sludge. This remover is easy and safe to use as well as clean up. PTS-202 conforms to military specification TT-T-2918 and is formulated specifically to remove two component epoxy and polyurethane topcoats.

PTI SOLVENTS & REDUCERS

PTI SOLVENTS & REDUCERS

PTI’s Solvents & Reducers are specially formulated to compliment our paints, coatings and primers. PTI only sources virgin solvents for the manufacturing of all our materials. The solvents available through Aircraft Spruce are Acetone, MEK, Mineral Spirits, Isopropyl Alcohol, Mineral Spirits, Toluene, Denatured Alcohol and VM&P Naphtha. Please refer to the Coating & Reducer Compatibility Reference Chart to view what reducers and solvents are acceptable to use with your chosen coating.

PTI ADDITIVES

PTI POLYKICK

POLYKICK™ is an additive specifically formulated by Products Techniques Inc. for our Polyurethane top coats. This product speeds up dry times but does not affect the rate of a full chemical. Although formulated for use with our Polyurethane coatings, PolyKick™ will work with most two component polyurethane system. PTI NOPEEL PTI NoPeel™ additive is formulated to help epoxy and polyurethane topcoats flow to their maximum ability. This additive keeps the coating from “Orange Peel” and other surface defects that may occur due to surface tension. PTI NOPOP PTI NoPop™ Retarder is a specially formulated solvent that is not photochemically reactive. This product is used as an additive to slow down the dry time of fast drying paints and primer. During hot and dry temperatures, coatings have a tendency to “solvent pop” and/or “dry spray”, small air bubbles form at the surface of the paint or when the paint dries before it hits the substrate. Retarders keep the material “wet” allowing it to flow, dry, and cure as it should.

PTI CLEANERS
