What is the temperature resistance of Dyna-Tek’s coatings?

  • Dyna-SlickShield™ - 1000-1200° F.
  • Dyna-SLICK™ - up to 800° F.

How long does it take the coatings to cure?

The simple answer is 60-90 minutes. Variables that can slow down the cure time are:

  •  Temperature. If the room temps are below 60° F, this can slow down the cure somewhat.
  • Humidity in the air. The curing catalysts for Dyna-Tek coatings are oxygen molecules and moisture in those molecules. So, drier air can influence the final cure time. For example, you might see your same application methods that work great during warmer summer months but need a little more time in the drier winter months.

How should you store Dyna-Tek coatings?

The shelf life of any of our products is 1-year from purchase, provided:

  • The container is stored in 55 – 70° F environment,
  • The container is not exposed to sunlight; even through UV protected windows.
  • The bottle hasn’t been left open. Once the bottle has been opened, you should be vigilant about closing the cap when not using it.
