Asian Paints 3 Mangoes Aluminium Paint: Heat, Rust, and Weather Protection

**Asian Paints 3 Mangoes Aluminium Paint** is a versatile, ready-mixed, solvent-based coating designed to provide excellent protection and a brilliant silver finish. It is primarily used on metallic surfaces where resistance to heat, rust, and weathering is essential. This product is the go-to solution for protecting pipelines, storage tanks, equipment, and structural steel both indoors and outdoors.

The highly reflective metallic pigments in **Asian Paints 3 Mangoes Aluminium Paint** help reflect sunlight, significantly reducing the surface temperature of the painted substrate. This makes it an invaluable tool for protecting metal roofs and oil tanks from solar heat gain.

Why Choose Asian Paints 3 Mangoes Aluminium Paint?

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can this paint be tinted to other colours?
A: No. **Asian Paints 3 Mangoes Aluminium Paint** must be used as-is, as its properties depend entirely on the metallic aluminium flakes.

Q: Is it suitable for high-heat surfaces, like exhaust pipes?
A: It is suitable for heat *reflection* (reducing temperature), but for surfaces that exceed 100°C (like engine parts or exhaust manifolds), a specialized high-temperature paint is required.

Q: Can I use it on wood?
A: Yes, it can be applied to wood that has been properly primed with Asian Paints TruCare Wood Primer.
