Intumescent Coatings - Simplified

Sherwin-Williams FIRETEX FX6010 intumescent coating has market-leading properties, including fast drying and reduced overcoating times, superior durability, good aesthetics, and the ability to be applied in shop or on-site.

These benefits translate into significant time and cost savings for applicators, enabling steel fabricators to satisfy the fire protection requirement of their clients and architects.

FIRETEX® FX6010 can be applied by normal airless spray equipment giving greater flexibility for the contractor to complete the application on or off-site. The rapid drying characteristics enable high productivity and a quick return to service with minimum disruption to the schedule.
