Maskote Zinc Stop-Off

ZYP Coating’s Maskote® Zinc Stop-Off is a specially formulated solvent-based paint that withstands normal alkaline and acid-cleaning operations before galvanizing and then, with galvanizing, masks off the coated areas and prevents zinc-steel alloying.  To use, simply paint, dry (fast-drying due to its solvent), and place into service [no “cure” needed].   It is recommended to initially test out Maskote with different thicknesses to determine the optimum one for a particular galvanized part.
