Henkel: Your One-Stop Source
The labor-intensive process of paint removal is made easier by Henkel’s superior portfolio of high-performance products. The company’s complete line of depaint systems includes water-based, acidic, alkaline and peroxide-based paint removers, as well as cleaners, deoxidizers, brighteners and conversion coatings. Henkel provides the most efficient and advanced chemical solutions in the industry.

Safety, Reliability and Responsibility
Henkel’s Aerospace Group was the first to offer MEC solvent-free paint strippers to the market.  These environmentally advantaged products offer optimal performance in the depainting of aircraft surfaces and parts.  Henkel paint strippers are NESHAP compliant, thixotropic products that cling to vertical surfaces, thereby improving the paint removal process.

First in Conversion Coatings
Conversion coatings are spray-on coatings that enhance the adhesion of paints to metal surfaces.  Henkel’s conversion coating lines, marketed under the Alodine® and Turco® brands, improve the paint adhesion of metallic parts. The company’s Alodine brand 5900™ tri-chrome is Henkel’s first aerospace-based trivalent chrome conversion coating. An excellent base for paints and adhesives, the product provides bare aluminum ASTM B117 salt spray resistance and has been optimized for use in immersion or spray applications.
