EonCoat is a ceramic-based, corrosion-prevention coating designed for use on bridges, storage tanks, exteriors and concrete structures. The coating chemically bonds with substrates, creating a barrier for air and water. The two-component system is spray-applied and does not require any labor-intensive surface preparation. EonCoat requires only one coat and dries in about an hour.
