ZINGA COLD GALVANIZING COMPOUND – 5 Kg (11.02 Lbs) (63.32 US fl oz) 0.5 Galon
The Film Galvanizing System ZINGA is a one pack coating that contains 96% zinc in the dry film and provides cathodic protection of ferrous metals.
ZINGA differentiates from galvanizing paints other corrosion protection methods in combining both Passive and Active protection in an easily applied film galvanizing system that not only delivers active cathodic protection but also provides a passive physical shield.
Can be used as a unique system as an alternative to hot-dip, galvanization or metallization
Can be applied by brushing, rolling or spraying on a clean and rough substrate in a wide range of atmospheric circumstances
ZINGA has one of the fastest drying times in the coating industry. It is touch dry in around 10 minutes at 20°C (40 µm DFT). ZINGA can be recoated with a new layer of ZINGA 1 hour after touch dry (by pistol, after 2 hours by brush), and with other paints 6 to 24 hours after touch dry.
This product is also available in presentation of 1Kg, 2Kg, 10Kg.

It cannot be stressed strongly enough that the key to Zinga’s long life is in the thorough preparation of the steel substrate to the correct specification.
Marine structures
Old or worn galvanising, thermally sprayed zinc (TSZ) or old Zinga
New steel
New galvanised steel
Cast-iron
Aluminium alloys
Note 1: The term “high pressure” means a minimum water-pressure of 10,000psi. Any pressures below this level will not totally remove engrained chlorides.
Note 2: The grit used on all structural steelwork must comply with 50µm and 80µm depending on the type of application). The chosen grit should always be able to achieve a blast roughness of 12.5 to 15 microns. It should be noted that UHP Blasting does not create a profile and should therefore never be used as the sole means of surface preparation. UHPAB is an excellent form of blast-cleaning for marine structures as it removes all crustacean growth, scale, engrained chlorides and invisible contaminants.
Once dried, the Zinga film requires exposure to fresh air, carbon dioxide and moisture to become fully cured. The natural porosity of the coating is dramatically reduced as curing takes place, and Zinga continues to harden for several weeks after application.
It is very important to note that before exposure to a saline environment (i.e. submerged in salt water or placed in a salt spray zone) all zinganised surfaces will require saturation with fresh water for a minimum of two hours to properly seal them. If the coating is unlikely to be immediately exposed to a salt atmosphere then exposure to rainwater or heavy overnight condensation for a couple of days will have the same sealing effect. Zinga can also be forced dried using Infrared drying systems.
