AquaGrip® 2600
- Chemical Family
- Epoxy & Epoxy Derivatives
AquaGrip® 2600 is used as an intermediate or topcoat over zinc rich primers for highly corrosive environments. Where exterior color fastness is required AquaGrip 2600 may be top-coated with polyurethane or acrylic finishes. Used on structural steel, steel tanks, offshore platforms, barges, refineries, petrochemical plants, power plants, railcars, pulp & paper mills, masonry surfaces and other areas as recommended. AquaGrip 2600 may be used as a surface tolerant single coat system in mild duty applications. Acceptable for drywall substrates.

- Topcoats
AquaGrip 2600, like other epoxies, tends to chalk and amber when exposed to sunlight in a humid environment. Urethane and acrylic topcoats are recommended to control the erosion of the epoxy and maintain a colorfast system. UreGrip 3000, UreGrip 3300, and AquaGrip 5000 are recommended topcoat for AquaGrip 2600.
- Shelf LIfe
1 year for both the Part A and B when stored inside at 40°F to 110°F.
- Substrates
AquaGrip 2600 can be applied over the following primers or directly to steel or concrete as recommended. AquaGrip 2600 should be applied to cured ZincGard 1000 by thinning one pint/gallon with potable water and applying a mist coat approximately 3mils wet which seals the porous inorganic zinc. The mist coat is followed by another light coat to achieve the total desired film thickness. AquaGrip 2600 is applied without a mist coat to ZincGard 1500, EpoxyGrip 2100 and MasticGrip 2500. Consult SSPC-PS Guide 8.00 for topcoating zinc-rich primers.
