BURN BARRIER™ No. 40-40 is a low-gloss general-purpose latex (water base) coating that is fire rated over non-combustible surfaces, and as an overcoat for BURN BARRIER™ intumescent fire retardant paints. It dries quickly to yield a highly cleansable-scrubbable, water-resistant film that possesses excellent adhesion flexibility, and toughness. No. 40-40 is suitable for application to all interior surfaces (except floors and shelving). It can also be used on exterior masonry surfaces where a highly water-resistant, decorative coating is desired.
