Description

Interlux Damp Lock is a specialized product designed to prevent moisture problems in marine environments. It is primarily used as a moisture barrier for boats and other marine vessels, especially in areas where moisture or dampness can lead to potential damage, such as hulls, decks, and storage areas.

Key Features of Interlux Damp Lock:

1. Moisture Barrier: Interlux Damp Lock is specifically formulated to block moisture from seeping into wood, fiberglass, or metal surfaces, protecting them from the damaging effects of water and humidity.

2. Prevents Rot and Corrosion: By sealing out moisture, Damp Lock helps to prevent rot in wood and corrosion in metal parts, which can otherwise lead to long-term structural damage.

3. Water Resistance: This product is designed to provide excellent water resistance, making it ideal for areas prone to damp conditions or direct water exposure, such as bilges, transoms, or other submerged parts of a boat.

4. Easy to Apply: Interlux Damp Lock is generally easy to apply, either by brush or roller, and it dries to form a protective layer that can be overcoated with other marine paints or finishes as needed.

5. Versatile Use: While it’s most commonly used in marine environments, it can also be applied in other areas exposed to high moisture levels, including areas where humidity or condensation is a problem.

6. Durability: It is designed to withstand harsh marine conditions, including exposure to saltwater, UV rays, and fluctuating temperatures, ensuring long-lasting protection.

Common Applications:

• Wooden Boat Hulls: Protects wood from water damage, rot, and warping.
• Bilge Areas: Protects against moisture build-up in areas prone to dampness.
• Decks and Cabins: Prevents moisture-related issues in parts of the boat above the waterline.
• Metal Surfaces: Provides a moisture barrier to prevent rust and corrosion.

Surface Preparation and Application:

1. Clean the Surface: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from contaminants, such as grease, oil, or dirt.
2. Apply Damp Lock: Apply a thin, even coat using a brush or roller. For maximum effectiveness, make sure that the product covers all surfaces that might be exposed to moisture.
3. Allow Drying: Let the product dry thoroughly as per the manufacturer’s instructions before applying additional coats or topcoats if necessary.

Benefits:

• Prevents Long-Term Damage: Protects wood and metal from moisture-related damage, reducing the risk of expensive repairs down the line.
• Improves Longevity of Marine Structures: Enhances the lifespan of boats and marine vessels by maintaining structural integrity and appearance.
• Easy Maintenance: Once applied, it helps reduce the need for constant upkeep in moisture-prone areas.
