"Colour and light fast"
Ultralast Ecoating System flourishes in the most aggressive climatic and
environmental conditions, because its simple formulation bonds so securely
to any well-prepared surface. Take a look at some of our success stories.
Bondi Icebergs Pool
The iconic Bondi Icebergs, located at the Southern end of Bondi beach,
is perhaps the most famous pool in Australia. Opened in 1923, like all
tidal pools, it is subject to
constant battering from
ocean waves.
Few paints can stand up
to the corrosive effects of
salt water, let alone the
never-ending barrage of
ocean waves which can
slap the side of the pool
with considerable force.
Accordingly, the Icebergs pool owners found they had to repaint every 9
to 12 months.
Then they discovered Ultralast. In November 2005, the pool owners
agreed to host a test strip
of Ultralast on the ocean
wall of the pool. The test
strip was monitored for
six months. At the end of
that time, it was as good
as the day it was applied.
So in June 2006, the pool
was completely repainted
with Ultralast. Now, we
confidently expect that the Bondi Icebergs pool will not require repainting
for some years. This not only saves the owners money; it also saves the
inconvenience of closing the pool every nine months to repaint.
Brisbane Airport
The management of Brisbane airport had always had a problem with
the guidelines painted on the tarmac. These vivid yellow paint lines are
important, as they guide large passenger
aircraft to the correct air bridges to offload
and onload passengers.
With the heat, high tropical humidity and
jet fuel spillage, invariably the paint would
wear away quickly. The lines required repainting at frequent intervals. But
now the lines are painted with Ultralast, and management does not have to
endure the inconvenience of shutting various pathways around the tarmac
to facilitate regular repainting.
