When it comes to protecting assets in industrial and marine environments, choosing the right topcoat can make all the difference. Surfaces exposed to harsh conditions – like salt spray, chemicals, impact and abrasions – require coatings that go beyond the ordinary. That’s where Transurethane Shield 3.45 stands out.

Transurethane Shield 3.45 – a high-performance polyurethane topcoat

Manufactured by Transocean Coatings and supplied in Australia by Wagon Paints, Transurethane Shield 3.45 is a high-performance polyurethane topcoat that delivers outstanding durability and resistance in the toughest environments. Specifically engineered for demanding conditions, Transurethane Shield 3.45 is a two-component, aliphatic polyurethane topcoat that offers outstanding mechanical strength, flexibility and long-term resistance to both environmental exposure and chemical attack.

Transurethane Shield 3.45 – ideal for outdoor environments

Its excellent UV resistance makes Transurethane Shield 3.45 ideal for use in outdoor applications where colour and gloss retention are critical. Unlike many coatings that fade or degrade under sunlight, Transurethane Shield 3.45 maintains its visual appeal and performance over time, even in harsh coastal or tropical conditions. In marine applications, where equipment and vessels are constantly exposed to salt spray and moisture, this coating provides a critical barrier to corrosion. In industrial environments, it stands up to abrasive wear, chemical spills and heavy-duty usage, making it a versatile and dependable choice.

Key features of Transurethane Shield 3.45

Here’s what sets Transurethane Shield 3.45 apart from its competitors:

Exceptional durability – With its tough, flexible film, Transurethane Shield 3.45 resists cracking and chipping, even under heavy wear and tear.
High impact resistance – Ideal for environments where equipment is exposed to knocks, scrapes or mechanical stress.
Chemical resistance – Protects against a wide range of acids, alkalis, fuels, oils and solvents.
Superior UV stability – Maintains colour and gloss even in intense sunlight, extending the life of the coating.
Excellent adhesion – When applied over compatible primers and intermediates, it forms a strong, reliable bond with the substrate.
Smooth finish – Offers a high-quality aesthetic in both gloss and semi-gloss finishes, enhancing the appearance of industrial and marine assets.

Transurethane Shield 3.45 – recommended uses

Transurethane Shield 3.45 is suitable for a variety of applications where high performance and visual appeal are essential. These include:

Marine vessels and offshore structures
Steel bridges and pipelines
Industrial plants and mining equipment
Storage tanks and structural steel
Heavy-duty machinery and transport equipment

For optimal performance, Transurethane Shield 3.45 should be applied over suitable epoxy primers such as Transpoxy Uniprimer 1.71, or intermediate coats like Transpoxy Barrier 2.16 or Transpoxy Masterbond 4.67N, also available from Wagon Paints. These systems work together to deliver a complete corrosion protection solution, from primer through to topcoat.

Transurethane Shield 3.45 – application and finish

Transurethane Shield 3.45 is typically applied by airless spray, but brush and roller methods can be used for touch-up or smaller areas. It cures to a hard, smooth finish that not only looks good but also provides lasting protection. It is available in a wide range of colours, allowing for colour-coding, branding or simple aesthetic enhancement of your project. Because it’s easy to apply and quick to dry, it helps reduce downtime in production or maintenance schedules – an important consideration for busy industrial operations.
