3. <strong>Product</strong> Description<br />
BASIC USE<br />
Manufactured by HBI, Inc., Nyalic ® is a<br />
clear polymeric resin coating that protects<br />
against chemical and environmental<br />
corrosion on ferrous and non-ferrous<br />
metals, galvanized, anodized and powder<br />
coated surfaces, as well as restores<br />
oxidized painted surfaces. Designed to<br />
withstand extreme temperatures and UV<br />
rays, this surface protectant is ideal <strong>for</strong><br />
highly moist or corrosive environments<br />
and per<strong>for</strong>ms at film thicknesses as low<br />
as 5 microns. Nyalic is effective <strong>for</strong><br />
environments exposed to acids,<br />
salts,water, heavy snow, ice, sea air and<br />
lime. It can be applied by brush, roller or<br />
sprayer system or can be factory-applied<br />
by NFC professionals.<br />

5. Installation<br />
PREPARATORY WORK<br />
An NFC proprietary surface preparation<br />
product should be used to remove all<br />
surface contaminants prior to coating.<br />
Surface must be completely dry be<strong>for</strong>e<br />
application begins.<br />
METHODS<br />
Nyalic can be applied by brush, roller or<br />
sprayer.<br />
PRECAUTIONS<br />
Use a respirator when applying by<br />
sprayer; use gloves <strong>for</strong> other application<br />
methods. Apply in a well-ventilated work<br />
area.<br />
BUILDING CODES<br />
Installation must comply with<br />
requirements of all applicable local, state<br />
and federal code jurisdictions. Good<br />
workmanship, coupled with proper<br />
detailing and design, ensure durable,<br />
functional and watertight construction.<br />
6. Availability & Cost<br />
Nyalic is only available directly from NFC.<br />
Contact NFC or an NFC licensed<br />
applicator <strong>for</strong> application in<strong>for</strong>mation.<br />
7. Warranty<br />
Nyalic has a limited 5-year warranty.<br />
Contact NFC, Inc. <strong>for</strong> details.<br />
8. Maintenance<br />
Properly installed Nyalic requires no<br />
special maintenance and resists dirt<br />
accumulation.<br />
To clean a surface, use NFC’s Right<br />
Rinse TM and very light agitation with a soft<br />
bristle brush. Use of solvent-based<br />
cleaners will void the warranty.<br />
Scratches and abrasions can be field<br />
repaired using Nyalic in an aerosol can.<br />
