NON SLIP ADDITIVE

What is NON SLIP ADDITIVE and why choose it?

NON SLIP ADDITIVE from International Náutica is a synthetic granular material designed to be added to topside finishes or sprinkled directly onto wet paint to help create a more slip-resistant finish. Because it does not affect paint drying or curing times and allows the topcoat to be applied in the usual way, it offers a simple, practical solution for increasing traction on painted surfaces without changing your existing paint system.

Main features

• Slip-resistant finish: Provides a non-skid texture when mixed into or sprinkled onto paint.
• No impact on drying times: The touch-dry and overcoating times remain the same as for the original finish.
• Easy to use: Can be mixed into the topcoat or applied onto wet paint using a suitable dispenser.
• Flexible application methods: Apply the treated paint by brush, roller or conventional spray, or broadcast the additive directly onto wet paint.
• High solids, solvent-free additive: 100% volume solids and 0 g/L VOC (as supplied).
• Compatible systems: Designed for use with International topcoats.

Application and use cases

Surface preparation

• All substrates must be clean, dry and free from contaminants before application.

General application methods

• Mix-in method: Add NON SLIP ADDITIVE to the chosen topcoat and stir thoroughly. Apply the modified finish by brush, roller or conventional spray.
• Broadcast onto wet paint:
  1. Apply one full coat of topcoat.
  2. While the paint is still wet, distribute NON SLIP ADDITIVE using a suitable dispenser or other dispersion method until the desired grit level is reached.
  3. Allow the coating to fully cure.
  4. Remove any excess loose grit from the surface.

Mixing and thinning

• Mixing quantity: The amount of powder to use depends on the level of non-skid texture required. Stir thoroughly into the topcoat.
• Thinner: Same thinner as recommended for the finish.
• Cleaner: Same cleaner as recommended for the finish.

Typical uses

• Enhancing slip resistance on painted surfaces where additional traction is desired.
• Professional, industrial and consumer applications, when used in accordance with the directions on the can.

Section 8 – Personal protective measures

General hygiene

• Keep out of reach of children.
• Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing.
• Do not eat, drink or smoke while handling the product. Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after use and before breaks.
• Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before entering eating areas. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.

Eye and face protection

• Use safety eyewear complying with an approved standard when there is a risk of splashes, mists, gases or dusts.
• Recommended: safety glasses with side shields.

Hand protection

• Wear chemical-resistant, impervious gloves when handling the product if indicated by a risk assessment.
• For all types of exposure, a glove with protection class 2 or higher (breakthrough time > 30 minutes according to EN374) is recommended.
• Recommended material: nitrile, thickness ≥ 0.12 mm.
• Replace gloves regularly and whenever there are signs of damage or degradation.

Skin and body protection

• Wear suitable protective clothing (such as overalls) selected according to the task and associated risks.
• Choose appropriate protective footwear and any additional skin protection as required, with specialist approval.

Respiratory protection

• Under normal application with adequate ventilation, special respiratory protection may not be necessary.
• When dry sanding, flame cutting or welding of the dry paint film, hazardous dust or fumes can be generated. Prefer wet sanding or flatting whenever possible.
• If exposure cannot be adequately controlled by local exhaust ventilation, use suitable respiratory protective equipment, such as an approved disposable particulate dust mask.

Environmental exposure controls

• Check emissions from ventilation or process equipment to ensure compliance with environmental protection legislation.
• Where necessary, use fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to reduce emissions.
