PITTSBURGH – PPG Industries’ protective and marine coatings (PMC) business has terminated its licensee agreement with Comex Group in Mexico. Customers in that country can now order AMERCOAT^® brand products directly from PPG. Products sold and serviced by PPG in Mexico include:

• AMERLOCK^® surface-tolerant epoxies protect steel and concrete structures such as offshore platforms, petroleum processing plants, storage facilities and marine structures in severe environments. Available in a wide range of colors and low-VOC formulations, Amerlock epoxies are engineered to prevent film pinholing and solvent entrapment at the substrate/coating interface, a common site of coatings failure with conventional epoxies and lower-solids systems.
• DIMETCOTE^™ inorganic zinc primers are designed for protection of carbon steel against corrosion. They are available in water-based and low-VOC solvent formulations, and they are easy to apply after abrasive blast surface preparation of the steel substrate.
• Patented PSX^® 700 polysiloxane topcoat is used around the world for applications in various protective and marine segments. Featuring a large color range, low isocyanates and outstanding application properties, PSX 700 coating is a leading topcoat solution.
