GIROSIL® Gutter RC-G is a revolutionary new protective coating system designed to fully treat the gutter through anti-corrosion treatment, joint and substrate encapsulation. It has excellent elastic and flexible properties to withstand normal surface movements and is unaffected by UV or extremes of weather and temperature.
GIROSIL® Gutter RC-G should only be applied to substrates that are structurally sound and provide a clean, dry and stable base for re-coating. GIROSIL® Gutter RC-G can be applied by brush or roller to ensure coverage and thickness. Peel adhesion tests should be carried out to ensure the surface to be treated is suitable for application.
UV makes coatings hard and brittle, limiting their ability to expand and contract resulting in loss of adhesion. GIROSIL® Gutter RC-G is completely and naturally resistant to sunlight and UV radiation, ensuring enduring flexibility and adhesion.
GIROSIL® Gutter RC-G repels surface water and growth, allowing easy cleaning during maintenance periods.
Tritec Building Contractors Ltd have been fully trained and approved by Giromax with the task of installing Girosil® RC-G. Loose and flaking coatings, surface corrosion, swarf and debris are completely removed and abraded back to a firm adhered edge, this ensures the substrates are structurally sound and suitable for treatment. Ensuring the surface is completely clean apply Girosil® Basecoat to all prepared surfaces allowing sufficient time to cure and fully seal with Girosil® SE (Gutter Joints) & Girosil® RC-G Topcoat. All in strict accordance to manufacturers specifications.
