Results: GLOBAL’s Class A Fire Rated, durable, highly impact and abuse resistant, Encasement Systems have been chosen to solve several issues. Facilities Management staff love that the primer can be used to reattach loose, flaking, cracking, peeling and alligatoring paint, minimizing surface preparation and hazardous waste generation. LeadLock™ was used on the Pump House’s interior plaster surfaces which contained a combination of Lead-Based Paint and Asbestos. It was also used on an exterior cementitious ceiling.
