AegisGuard™ LP is a low odor, very low
VOC (<5 gl, excluding 0.0313 oz.) RF and EMF
interior and exterior shielding paint additive. It mixes easily with
any interior
or exterior latex or acrylic primer, paint, and most other soap and water cleanup surface coating
brands, selected by the user for their shielding protection applications,
and grounding is not required. See below for standard product chemical composition and warnings.
-
Interior surface coating application is recommended to
avoid
weathering.
-
Shake well and mix entire
contents of the 4 oz. (118.29 ml) container thoroughly with up to
1 US or Imperial gallon or 5 liter can of the
surface coating.
-
Apply 2 coats
to surfaces following the surface coating manufacturer's application, safety
and cleanup instructions.
-
Allow
each coat to dry thoroughly.
-
Primed and painted surfaces can be top coated with any paint or surface coatings.
-
Use
AegisGuard™ LS
for
shielding the interior side of windows and skylights.
Note:
AegisGuard™ LP products have a light colored tint which varies
according to its supported frequency range. The 30 GHz., 120 GHz., 360
GHz. and 1.1 THz.
model tints are pale green, pale yellow, pale orange, and
pale red,
respectively.
Adding it directly into paint, instead of
primer, reduces the number of required coats by eliminating the topcoat
and
will not affect shielding effectiveness, but may affect color. This can be tested
beforehand on an inconspicuous surface area by
thoroughly mixing 1/2 teaspoon of AegisGuard™ LP with 2.5
oz. (75 ml) of the surface coating. Apply 2 coats to a small area, allowing
sufficient drying time between coats. If
you are dissatisfied with the coverage or color and decide
to use
primer instead, add the remaining AegisGuard LP and in the opened
container and remaining paint/LP mixture, if any, with the primer.
Clean up with warm soapy water.
Leftover paint or primer mixed with AegisGuard™ LP can be
stored indefinitely in a tightly sealed paint can, remaining effective
for as long as the mixture is usable.
Note:
AegisGuard LP standard models contain smaller percentages of resins and solvents
commonly used in latex and acrylic latex primers and paints.
