F-1059 IMC is a thermoplastic polyurethane coating typically spray applied as an in-mold coating (IMC) for molded flexible and rigid polyurethane foams.
F-1059 IMC is specifically designed for use in aluminum molds where high temperature applications are needed, 115-145ºF.
F-1059 IMC provides a 0.5-1.5 mil coating that acts as a barrier and protects molded foams from UV, moisture, impact, puncture, abrasion, and chemicals while providing a durable flexible finish.
