Duram Braai Paint is a premium-quality, solvent-based decorative and protective finish specifically engineered to withstand high heat. Designed for surfaces that experience extreme temperature fluctuations, it provides a tough, charcoal-black matte finish that won’t peel, blister, or flake under intense thermal stress.
Key Performance Features
- Heat Resistant up to 600°C: Formulated with specialized resins and pigments that remain stable and intact even when exposed to direct heat from fires and coals.
- Superior Adhesion: Bonds powerfully to mild steel and cast iron, ensuring a long-lasting finish on frequently used outdoor cooking equipment.
- Corrosion Protection: Acts as a barrier against moisture and oxidation, preventing rust from forming on metal surfaces between uses.
- Elegant Matte Finish: Delivers a classic, professional “new look” to weathered braais and fireplaces, hiding soot marks and minor surface imperfections.
Ideal Applications
- Outdoor Equipment: Perfect for braais (BBQs), smokers, fire pits, and Weber-style grills (exterior only).
- Indoor Heating: Ideal for wood-burning stoves, fireplaces, grates, and chimney flues.
- Industrial & Automotive: Suitable for manifold pipes and other high-heat metal components where a matte black finish is desired.
Application Highlights
- Surface Prep: Ensure the metal is completely cold, dry, and free of loose rust, grease, or old flaking paint before application.
- No Primer Required: Designed to be applied directly to bare, cleaned metal for maximum heat conductivity and adhesion.
- Drying & Curing: Touch-dry in 30 minutes. Note: The paint achieves its full chemical and heat resistance only after being heated to approximately 200°C for the first time.
Safety Warning: Do not use on surfaces that come into direct contact with food (e.g., the actual cooking grid). Always apply in a well-ventilated area and ensure the paint is fully cured before the first use.
