xerofire®
up-grading FR coatings
Many building interiors feature wooden wall panelling to enhance the aesthetic. For safety reasons these surfaces require a coating that provides a barrier to fire propagation and spread of flame.
xerofire is the first high-performance furniture grade lacquer system that will upgrade a non fire-rated timber substrate to BS476 Part 6 and Part 7.
The benefits of using xerofire:
- The furniture grade quality of the finish
- Full compliance with BS476 Class 0 & Class 1 ( Exova Warrington Fire Test Certificates 315456 & 315457 dated 23rd Feb 2012)
- The ease and simplicity of the finishing process
xerofire finishing
A typical finishing system using xerofire on non fire-rated oak veneered MDF.
- Spray 1 coat of mixed xerofire base at 152 microns wet film thickness.
- Allow to dry for 3 hours and repeat.
- Leave overnight then denib with 320 grit abrasive.
- Spray 1 coat of mixed xerofire clear at 75 microns wet film thickness and allow to dry thoroughly or overnight before packing/shipment
( please refer to xerofire Technical Data Sheets and Material Safety Data Sheets prior to any finishing )
