When you are looking for a soft grease designed for painting onto ladles or other surfaces needing protection from attack by molten metals or fluxes, BONDERITE® L-CA 696 is a great choice. It contains refractory pigments and, when immersed in molten metal, produces a dry, aerated insulating coating, which is highly effective in repelling molten metal, prolonging the life of the ladle. You can expect easy application and repair, strong insulating properties for reducing thermal fatigue, and a formulation to minimize hazards during application and use.
