For both safety and promotional reasons, it's often essential that any business, shop, or institution that utilizes pressurized gas cylinders clearly delineate their contents with clear, clean, and durable paint schemes. Gas cylinders, however, are often used in conditions that expose them directly to the environment, thereby adding an extra challenge to making sure that the colored bands and paint jobs that are used to separate what could otherwise be a deadly combination of substances harder and time consuming.
As Cyl-Tec always keeps the safety of our customers in mind, we've made sure, as a single-source supplier for all compressed gas cylinder needs, to stock a line of ACRYLEX paints that are noted for their superior weathering characteristics, adhesion and durability, wear resistance, and ability to retain color stability and gloss when exposed to adverse conditions for long periods of time. To state the safety advantages these fast drying, water reducible acrylic enamel paints grant directly, a tank that's been painted with a green band or stripe will not begin to appear yellow after it's been exposed to sunlight. Since colors are often used to indicate what type of gas or liquid a cylinder is holding, such color stability can help deter the confusion that might otherwise result in an incorrect, possibly dangerous, blending of gases. Because our Acrylex paints are easy to apply, either with rollers or spray cans, they also save any laboratory, factory, metal fabrication shop, diving school, or medical supply outlet time and money as the effort needed to keep their compressed gas cylinders safe and professional looking will be minimized.
