PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 30, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Axalta (NYSE: AXTA), a leading global supplier of liquid and powder coatings, added Tufcote NISO 2K to its Tufcote portfolio. Tufcote NISO 2K is a non-isocyanate acrylic single stage topcoat for the agriculture, construction, and earthmoving equipment (ACE) markets.
Tufcote NISO 2K was benchmarked against the performance requirements of the leading global agricultural manufacturers and formulated to provide a robust application with good flow and leveling for an excellent appearance. Tufcote NISO 2K is a two-component, 3.5 Volatile Organic Compound (VOC), lead and chrome-free non-isocyanate cross-linked acrylic enamel topcoat that is designed to deliver superior weathering performance, high gloss and distinctness of image (DOI), as well as excellent flexibility and chip resistance. Fast dry times allow for quicker handling and assembly. Tufcote NISO 2K has excellent blendabilty for end-of-line repair in OEM operations.
