A few Suggestions

We recommend the use of our approved fastener-class coating applicators, highly trained experts jn the application of pretreatments.

Further, with today's emphasis on quality (such as ISO 9000), We urge that all end users ask for and keep a record of the lot number of the Xylan coating used. This with the fastener certification document, ensures traceability.
