PREMIUM CARE FOR PIPES
Our specially formulated Picote Dual Colour 100% Solids Epoxy has been designed to build up layers inside the pipe to form a semi-structural solution. This provides an effective barrier which is corrosion-resistant, wear-resistant, damp-proof and non-corrosive! The new epoxy pipe is also elastic, withstanding shock & bending and is anti-static too!
Further pipe deterioration is significantly reduced by preventing corrosion and giving added structure to the old pipe. Applying several coats creates a 2-4mm wall, depending on the number of coats applied.
*Estimated lifespan when applied correctly is 30-50 years!WHY COAT?
Coating pipe extends the life of the pipe without replacing it. The original pipe provides the blueprint and the epoxy coating builds up in layers to form a brand new pipe inside the old one.
The new slick inner surface gives increased flow and reduces the risk of future blockages. By brushing the epoxy you have control over the coverage, distribution and thickness applied, with minimal waste or mess.

DON'T MISS A SPOT!
Our unique Dual Colour coating system is designed for alternating between a white layer and a grey layer with each coating. Depending on the pipe, choose either white or grey for the first coat, and then the other colour for the second coat, and alternate depending on the number of coats. This makes it simple to visually verify that epoxy has been evenly distributed everywhere.
Finish with white to comply with NSF Certification for potable water pipes
