- First layer – A surface preparation of the steel fastener. It is a chemically-bonded layer that improves coating adhesion.
- Second layer – A basecoat formulated to self-heal from scratches and sacrifice itself to protect the fastener.
- Third layer – A topcoat that provides added barrier protection.
