Overview of Belzona 3921

Belzona 3921 (GSC Surface Conditioner) is a two-component, solvent-based zinc epoxy surface conditioner formulated to provide adhesion of Belzona membrane systems to a wide range of non-porous substrates. It is part of the Belzona 3111 (Flexible Membrane), Belzona 3211 (Lagseal) and Belzona 3131 (WG Membrane) systems when applications are made onto non-porous surfaces such as iron, steel, galvanized steel, non-ferrous metals, glass, GRP/FRP and slate.

Due to its zinc-rich epoxy formulation, Belzona 3921 also functions as a holding primer on prepared steel surfaces prior to application of Belzona 5111 or Belzona 5811 protective coatings, and may be used as a stand-alone product for small-area steel protection applications such as coating reinforcing bars in concrete repair work.
