This product was developed before 2011, and has evolved due to various enhancements, into what we now call Marine Shield (MS) 200 Flex. It has been tested and proven on a wide range of flexible substrates, and due to its many unique properties, it has even been used at America’s Cup level, on an AC72 vinyl-wrapped hull, with outstanding results!
MS 200 Flex has been successfully applied to vinyl, PVC, and PVC-blended materials, and we are still discovering more uses - this truly is our most versatile product!
MS 200 Flex can be applied to many different materials, e.g. vinyl-wrapped boats, hood linings, seats, sunshade covers, buoys, fenders, side curtains, hard inflatable docks, PVC tube matting, inflatable structures, paddleboards, spa pool covers, marquees, car tyres (white walling) and many, many more…
MS 200 Flex comes in either a 3 litre kit, or a 6 litre kit.
This is a 2:1 mixing ratio - 2 Parts A : 1 Part B
2 medium coats is generally sufficient. However, for those horizontal surfaces with high UV exposure (e.g. vinyl-wrapped boats), a 3rd coat will give the ultimate protection from UV.
Up to 35sqm (2 coats)
Part A will last 2 years+, unopened, when stored as per instructions. Part B can last up to 5 years.
As long as the lid is replaced firmly and quickly, straight after use, Part A will last up to 12 weeks, and Part B can last up to 3 years.
Once mixed, it has a relatively short pot life. This will vary, depending upon temperature and humidity, from 30 minutes to 90 minutes. Hotter weather/higher humidity, will cause the paint to go off faster, and cooler weather/lower humidity will cause the paint to go off more slowly.
Therefore, we recommend mixing small amounts, 1-2 litres at a time (depending on size of application; for larger application, we can supply reducer to slow down the process). This will help to keep the paint fresh throughout the application process.
Please Note:
See manufacturer safety data sheets for appropriate storage instructions etc.
