Technical Information
Henkel BONDERITE M-CR 120 AERO in the quart bottle format provides the same MIL-DTL-81706 and MIL-C-5541 compliant chromate conversion coating chemistry as the gallon can in a smaller quantity suited for maintenance, repair, and small-batch production operations. The quart format is ideal for touch-up of chromate conversion coating on repaired aluminum surfaces, small part processing, and MRO operations requiring a small working solution volume. Applied by brush, swab, or spray on clean, deoxidized aluminum surfaces, BONDERITE M-CR 120 AERO produces the characteristic iridescent yellow-to-gold chromate film that provides corrosion protection and primer adhesion enhancement.
