Material Notes:
Turco 1270-5 is a viscous white emulsion that does not contain any of the hazardous or highly toxic components of conventional paint removers. It is free of aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated solvents, phenol and chromates. Turco 1270-5 was developed as a paint softener to be used in combination with blast media and high pressure water. However, with sufficient time and / or elevated temperatures, Turco 1270-5 can remove selected paint systems without the necessity for blasting or high pressure rinsing. It is particularly effective in selective removal of topcoats from painted composites which employ a nylon-type intermediate barrier coat. For other systems, both the topcoat and the intermediate primer may be removed leaving the chromated primer intact.
