Polarsheen - Low temperature curing acrylic

Polarsheen is a pure acrylic water-based paint formulated to dry at very low temperatures. It has Thales approval for use in wine-cellars. It has been successfully used, over a period of several years, in Controlled Atmosphere Rooms (low temperature and reduced oxygen storage rooms where fruit is stored) across the Western Cape. The product has low odour and is able to dry at temperatures below 4 degrees Celsius. Flexibility is very good resulting in the product being used to seal the gaps between panels in Controlled Atmosphere Rooms. The photograph below was taken in an underground wine cellar coated with Polarsheen. The product also contains a dry-film fungicide, to prevent mould growth.
