DINITROL ML cavity wax 1 L

Description

DINITROL ML is a highly penetrating anti-corrosion product for enclosed cavities, seams, panel overlaps and other hard-to-reach areas. Thanks to its low viscosity, it penetrates narrow joints and corroded areas, where it helps limit further corrosion.

The material can also be applied to damp or corroded substrates once loose corrosion has been removed. After application, an oily, water-repellent and flexible protective film remains on the surface.

High penetration Penetrates seams, overlaps and narrow corroded areas.

Suitable for corroded substrates Can also be applied where firmly bonded corrosion remains after cleaning.

Displaces existing moisture Also suitable for cavities where residual moisture may be present.

Very good flexibility in the cold The protective film retains its adhesion even at temperatures below −40 °C.

Where high penetration matters most

ML is intended mainly for areas that thicker protective coatings cannot reach or where existing corrosion first needs penetrating treatment.

Key Features

• door interiors and body cavities
• frame and box sections
• seams, joints and panel overlaps
• areas with existing corrosion
• areas where moisture can collect

Treating damp or corroded substrates

There is no need to take every treated area back to bare metal before application. Loose and flaking corrosion must, however, be removed. Firmly adhering corrosion can remain on the surface.

Thanks to its penetrating properties, the material reaches deep into joints, panel overlaps and other areas where corrosion can continue beneath the surface.

First coat in two-coat protection

In anti-corrosion underbody treatment, ML can serve as the penetrating first coat. Once the corroded areas have been treated, a suitable DINITROL bitumen underbody coating is applied to create a more durable outer layer of protection.

Underbody topcoat materials can be found in the DINITROL underbody protection category.

Application in cavities and sections

• Remove loose and poorly adhering corrosion
• Mix the material thoroughly before use
• Spray into cavities, seams, overlaps and other areas to be treated
• Manual or semi-automatic application equipment can be used, as well as Airmix or Airless technology
• The recommended wet film thickness is approximately 30 μm, which corresponds to a dry film of approximately 10 μm

Guns, probes and other equipment for professional application can be found in the DINITROL Application Equipment category.

Which cavity wax to use?

The choice depends mainly on the condition of the substrate and the type of protection required. ML is suitable where high penetration matters and where you are working on damp or corroded surfaces.

Frequently asked questions – When should I choose DINITROL ML?

Mainly when high penetration into cavities, seams and overlaps is needed, or when corrosion or residual moisture is already present on the substrate.

Can it be applied directly to corrosion?

Yes. Loose and flaking rust must be removed first, but firmly adhering corrosion can remain on the substrate.

Can it be applied to a damp cavity?

Yes. The material is also suitable for damp substrates and, thanks to its penetrating properties, helps displace existing moisture.

Is ML a final underbody coating?

It is primarily intended as penetrating protection for cavities, seams and corroded areas. In underbody protection, it can form the first coat, which is then covered with a suitable DINITROL bitumen underbody coating.
