MonoGuard: Fast-Drying Coating That Stops Corrosion Cold

With structures that have a lot of metal components exposed to the elements, the fight against corrosion is a constant one. At Fleetwood, we work with the renowned RD Coatings, who have developed some uniquely effective corrosion protection systems that are easy to use, effective, and offer a first line of defence against material contamination.

If left unchecked, corrosion can become a structural issue. Any coating that stops this from happening isn’t just useful, it’s essential. Fleetwood’s solution is MonoGuard, a fast-drying coating that stops corrosion in its tracks.

What is MonoGuard?

MonoGuard is part of a new generation of water-based anti-corrosion coatings offering long-lasting protection equivalent to traditional zinc-rich epoxy-polyurethane systems with the great advantage of not necessarily having to blast the surface before application.

MonoGuard is based on a unique formula combining the essential performance required for coatings on metals. It offers a very high adhesion rate and protection against corrosion, as well as high resistance against water, erosion, and UV, for longer durability.

RD-MonoGuard has been tested by independent laboratories and is certified to be applied in marine and industrial environments classified C5 and to protect steel for more than 15 years according to ISO 12944.

Faster and Easier to Use

The use of RD-MonoGuard as a replacement for traditional solvent-based systems allows working with more safety, comfort and ease, but also faster. Being single-component and water-based, it is also much more environmentally friendly by emitting far fewer VOCs and drastically reducing the amount of waste.

Fleetwood RD-MonoGuard works on a variety of metal surfaces including both old and new galvanized steel, aluminium, stainless steel and copper. Its excellent levels of adhesion give you a coating you can rely on for more than 15 years, making it both time and cost-effective and minimising the maintenance cycle.

It’s simple to use. Start by power-washing the surface to be coated. Once dry, apply two coats of quick-drying MonoGuard. That’s it, that’s all there is to using one of the most effective corrosion protection coatings on the market.

Fleetwood MonoGuard provides:

  • A one-component system
  • A fast-drying coating that doesn’t impact your business operations
  • High Performance
  • C5 High ISO 12944
  • 15+ Years life expectancy
