Water Displacing Paint (WDP) Optimization and Field Evaluation.

Abstract

A previously developed, water displacing paint has been reformulated to obtain improved pigment dispersion and a lusterless finish for camouflage purposes. The coating has exhibited durability and corrosion protection in outdoor exposure tests. Fleet evaluations by several squadrons have demonstrated its effectiveness for touch-up under high humidity conditions. It is also reported to be convenient and easy to use. (Author)
