Armaguard protective coatings are able to take the abuse of protecting a truck box and therefore its also the strongest, most flexible and longest lasting protective coating for just about anything else you could possibly want to protect.

PRIUS OUTDOES HUMMER IN ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE

 

The Toyota Prius, the flagship car for the environmentally conscious, is the source of some of the worst pollution in North America, and takes more combined energy to produce than a Hummer, says the Recorder.

Consider:

  • The nickel contained in the Prius' battery is mined and smelted at a plant in Ontario that has caused so much environmental damage to the surrounding environment that NASA has used the 'dead zone' around the plant to test moon rovers.
  • Dubbed the Superstack, the factory has spread sulfur dioxide across northern Ontario, becoming every environmentalist's nightmare.
  • Acid rain around the area was so bad it destroyed all the plants and the soil slid down off the hillside, according to Canadian Greenpeace energy-coordinator David Martin.
  • After leaving the plant, the nickel travels to Europe, China, Japan and United States, a hardly environmentally sound round the world trip for a single battery.

But that isn't even the worst part, says the Record. According to a study by CNW Marketing, the total combined energy to produce a Prius (consisting of electrical, fuel, transportation, materials and hundreds of other factors over the expected lifetime), is greater than what it takes to produce a Hummer:

  • The Prius costs an average of $3.25 per mile driven over a lifetime of 100,000 miles -- the expected lifespan of the Hybrid.
  • The Hummer, on the other hand, costs a more fiscal $1.95 per mile to put on the road over an expected lifetime of 300,000 miles.
  • That means the Hummer will last three times longer than a Prius and use almost 50 percent less combined energy doing it.

ArmaGuard. More Than Just a Truck Bed Liner

There are unlimited uses for Armaguard Spray on Coating. The main use for this product is pickup truck beds and therefore, Armaguard has developed one of the strongest coatings possible to protect and stand up to this abuse.

Armaguard is water tight, nearly indestructible, chemical resistant, food safe, flexible, good looking, and bonds permanently to almost any surface.

Unlike almost any other protective coating Armaguard is applied using very specialized and expensive equipment. Every other product I have seen is simply rolled or sprayed onto surfaces with standard applications.

Armaguard is a two part product that cures within five seconds of mixing. This makes is very strong, but also incredibly difficult to apply. No paint brushes or paint guns here, we use very specialized equipment which heats the product and pressurises it to 2200psi. The Armaguard mixes at the very tip of the specialized spray gun and is permanently cured to the surface it is sprayed to almost instantly. There is absolutely no way this product could be applied any other way. This is what puts it miles above any other protective coating and makes it the choice for absolutely any application.

If you want THE VERY BEST protection for what ever you have, Armaguard coating is the only answer.

 

We have attached photos of our mobile glass van bumpers and of a 20ft cargo trailer which we have applied Armaguard to. The van bumpers were chipped and rusting after only two years of commercial use. Coated with Armaguard, they look great and even standup to broken glass.

On the 20ft toy hauler, we applied the Armaguard to the floor and one foot up the wall. The floor will look just as good five years from now no matter what is dragged across it or spilled on it.

 

Our next Armaguard project is a Harley Motorbike. The customer has brought us all the fenders and gas tank from the bike. I will be sure to post some pictures when we finish these. I am sure the bike will look great!

 

Some examples of products Splashes has applied Armaguard to are; side step bars, bush guards, rocker panels, boats interior, commercial work trucks, snowmobile decks and trailers, ATV’s and so much more!
