## Description

ZRC Cold Galvanizing High Zinc Compound - 1 Gallon - Battleship Grey - Flat Finish Where it all began...the original cold galvanizing compound! ZRC has provided high zinc coating protection for over 50 years! Enjoy the following great benefits with ZRC Cold Galvanizing Compound: 95% zinc in the dry film using only Type III "ultra pure" ASTM-D-520 zinc Recognized under the Component Program of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. as equivalent to hot-dip galvanizing Meets and exceeds Fed. Spec. DOD-P-21035A (Galvanizing Repair Spec); MIL-P-26915A (USAF Zinc Dust Primer); ASTM Des. A-780 (Standard Practice for Repair of Damaged Hot-Dip Galvanized Coatings; SSPC-Paint 20 (Specification for Zinc-Rich Primer) Passes 3,000 hours salt spray testing without failure (ASTM Des. B117) Passes Preece Test (ASTM Des. A239) for hot-dip galvanizing Passes 9-year subtropical testing Low VOC approved in all 50 states ISO 9001 registration assures the highest quality consistently ZRC meets and exceeds SSPC-Paint 20 ( Specification for zinc-rich primers) ZRC meets and exceeds SSPC-Paint 29 ( Specification for zinc dust sacrificial primer, performance-based.) APPLICATIONS: Field applied galvanizing, Repairing hot-dip galvanizing, Rust proofing welds, Repairing inorganic zinc, Re-galvanizing of worn hot-dip, Metal fabrication, Construction Manufacturing/OEM, Antenna Towers, Petrochemical Plants, Roads & Bridges, Tanks, Industrial Maintenance, Water Treatment, Marine & Offshore, Cooling Towers, Hundreds more! THE ZRC DIFFERENCE: The ZRC difference is made possible by ZRC's high zinc content (95% by weight in the dried film) of "ultra pure" (ASTM D 520 Type III) zinc dust, ensuring that more metallic zinc is available for superior galvanic protection against corrosion. This high purity zinc dust is compounded with a tenacious non-encapsulating binder using a highly controlled trade secret process in our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility. The result is a self

Review: Quality Cold Galvanizing Protection - The zinc compound mixed easily and coated effectively. No different than working with a thick paint. Coverage was approximately 400 sq ft for a gallon. Great value as ZRC works to provide protection for a second 20 years on this Endless Pool in ground frame.
Review: Great product - This product works great. Probably the heaviest gallon of paint I've ever picked up. So you get what you pay for. Very thick paint that goes on easily and covers very well. It did require 2 coats to be sufficient on bare steel I used it for. But that was manufacturer recommendations also. There is only 1 complaint I have about the paint is that after it dries the final color is not that of new galvanizing. It's the color and finish of galvanizing that's been weathered for a couple of years. A flat gray color instead of a medium gloss silver/gray appearance. My customer loves the look so it worked out for me. Just be aware of that if your looking for a product that looks like it's been hot dipped galvanized that's not what this paint will give.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does it have a gray or silver finish?**
A: It's a darker gray. If you want something more silver, order Galvilite from ZRC, which is lighter in color and more closely matches hot dipped galvanized finishes when you are using it for touch-up applications.

**Q: are you able to ship this product to california**
A: Yes, with new laws it's about all you can get that works on rust that's voc compliant .

**Q: can you apply over rust?**
A: Not recommended.  You can apply it over the light rust residue AFTER you have removed any heavy rust, but probably best to use a rusty metal primer.  Save yourself some money.

**Q: can it be panted afterwards?**
A: I order and paid for it and never received it

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product
*by C***T on January 4, 2022*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great solution to rejuvenate corrugated sheet metal
*by K***C on July 21, 2025*

We just revitalize, 3000 ft.² of corrugated sheet metal. We remove the rust mechanically and then put two coats of this on it. It works very nicely. The finish when it dries is more of a flat silver, not shiny at all. Coverage is very close to what the manufacturer says with two coats, especially if it’s not too hot the surface do you put it on.
