Chemical Agent Resistant Coating (C.A.R.C.)
Our Chemical Agent Resistant Coating (CARC) is a specialized paint finish extensively utilized in military applications, particularly on vehicles. Designed to offer protection against chemical and biological threats, CARC-coated vehicles can be decontaminated effectively in the event of exposure to hazardous agents. Additionally, CARC coatings enhance stealth capabilities by reducing infrared detection and are resistant to damage from decontamination solutions, making them an essential component of military vehicle protection.
Our aerospace coatings adhere to the highest standards of quality and performance, meeting specifications such as BSX32 for two-pack primer and DTD 5618 for resistance to lubricating oils. Whether it’s ensuring maximum reflection of solar heat radiation or providing long-term corrosion resistance, our aerospace coatings are engineered to deliver superior protection and durability in aerospace environments.
For technical information tailored to your specific requirements, our team is always available to assist you. Trust SLH Surface Finishings for industry-leading expertise and solutions in defence and aerospace coatings.
