Many professionals consider Awlgrip Two-Part Linear Polyurethane to be the benchmark by which other topcoats are measured.
Famous for its high gloss and chip-resistant durability, Awlgrip two-part polyurethane enamel provides resin-rich, clean, bright color. May be applied by brush, spray or roller when used with the appropriate converters. Awlgrip paints are lead-free and comply with Federal regulations. Recommended only for professional applicators using proper safety equipment. Alwgrip Two-Part Linear Polyurethane should not be applied below the waterline. Once it cures, it requires very little maintenance and should not be waxed, buffed, compounded or polished.
