Rosco Flamex PA Flame Retardant Paint Additive, 12x 8oz Case

You can enhance the fire resistance of your paint with the Roscoflamex PA Flame Retardant Paint Additive, a clear, un-pigmented solution designed to create a flame-retardant layer on your painted surfaces. This versatile, easy-to-use additive is compatible with most latex or vinyl acrylic paints, making it a valuable addition to your painting supplies.

To use, simply add one full jar of Roscoflamex PA to a U.S gallon (3.79L) of water-based paint. This high-quality additive does not alter the flammability of the substrate being painted but instead adds a retardant treatment that slows the spread of fire along the surface. Please note, it's not recommended for use with metallic paints due to potential reactions with metal pigments.

The effectiveness of this flame-resistant barrier is dependent on both the fire retardant additive and the thickness of the coating. Ensure the dry paint film is no less than 4 mil in thickness for optimal performance. While Roscoflamex PA is a robust solution, it is not intended to replace other Roscoflamex products. Always treat the substrate material using the appropriate Roscoflamex product for the best results.

When using Roscoflamex PA in Rosco Supersaturated paint, add one 8 oz. jar to one quart of undiluted Supersaturated and then dilute this mixture at least 1:1 with water. Mix thoroughly before using. An 8 oz. jar of Roscoflamex PA mixed into one gallon of paint will treat approximately 300 square feet (28 square meters) of material as per paint manufacturer's guidelines.

Apply the treated paint by brush, roller, or sprayer as per the paint manufacturer's instructions, ensuring a complete paint film is formed. Roscoflamex PA has been approved for use by the California and New York City Fire Marshall and has been tested according to ASTM E84 Class A.

Store Flamex products in non-metallic containers and clean metal sprayers thoroughly after use. Always read the instructions supplied with any Flamex product and test before using. Roscoflamex PA is comparable to the original P50. Do not intermix old and new Flamex products. Suitable for treating latex house paint, tinted latex paints, latex primers, Rosco Scenic paints, clear flat or gloss acrylic glazes, and vinyl and acrylic water-based mural paints.
