Howell, Michigan - Chem-Trend has launched an additional family of products in its Mono-Lube 3000 series of water-based inside tyre paints. The company said the new paints enable customers to reduce coating weights by approximately 30 percent compared to conventional filled inside tyre paints
This benefit is due to the new mix of ingredients, as the paints are created from a unique blend of raw materials developed through Chem-Trend's advanced R & D process.
Chem-Trend said the products, which are spray applied, provide good slip and air bleed in the curing process - particularly advantageous for makers of run-flat and Ultra High Performance tyres. The lower coat weights also help provide an enhanced finished tyre appearance, highly desirable for premium tyres.
