Algae
and Sludge Won’t Stick To Wearlon®
Job Report #1 (PowerPoint Presentation)
EASY TO APPLY EASY CLEAN, NON-STICK COATING!!
Wearlon® non-stick coating is making cleanup easier in many industries including wastewater treatment centers, where sludge buildup and algae are the biggest causes for down time. Wearlon reduces down time due to cleaning and clogging.
SAFE
& EASY TO APPLY
Wearlon® is a low V.O.C., water based silicone/epoxy coating that can be applied with airless, conventional spray or roll applied and is safe to the environment. Unlike traditional non-stick coatings that have to be baked on at extremely high temperatures, Wearlon® is room temperature cured and is simple to apply
ALGAE WON’T STICK
The two pictures shown here prove that the gray section coated with Wearlon® has no algal growth while the dark green algae is growing all around the Wearlon® coated areas. This was cleaned with a garden hose.

VERSATILE
MAINTENANCE COATING
Wearlon® will find it’s way into every area of a waste waster plant. Since Wearlon® adheres to almost any substrate, the cleaning of a sludge press becomes a job that can easily be handled with a garden hose. Apply Wearlon® on conveyors and handling equipment to increase production and reduce clean up time. Wearlon® is safer for maintenance workers who can now avoid tethers and safety equipment during dangerous routine clean up procedures.
WHAT DOES EASY CLEAN MEAN?
It means that because nothing sticks to Wearlon®, algae won’t attach and grow the way it will with conventional coatings. If it can’t stick it can’t grow. A garden hose or a brush is enough to keep things clean. It means that sludge releases from sludge conveyors on it’s own in most cases. It means lower maintenance costs and improved throughput.
