Product release: Magnet Paints Chassis Saver



Magnet Paints' Chassis Saver**A Cost-Effective Way
to Stop Underbody Rust and Corrosion on Autos and Trucks Permanently
Requiring no primer or top coat, Chassis Saver speeds the process of 
protecting chassis components while cutting paint costs. 

AMITYVILLE, N.Y.*Magnet Paints, a leading provider of premium refinishing
and industrial maintenance products since 1915, announces the availability
of its Chassis Saver underbody coating, specially formulated to prevent
automotive and truck corrosion without the use of primers and top coats.
Now owner-operators, fleet managers and truck refinishing shops can save up
to 70% when using Chassis Saver to obtain the same chassis protection that
used to take multiple coats of expensive primers and top coats.

Chassis Saver represents a one-paint solution that chemically bonds to
rusted metal to create a hard, glaze-like non-porous finish that provides
lasting protection to the underbody components of any car, truck, van or
SUV.  By sealing off areas such as frames, floor boards, fender wells,
firewalls and trunk areas from damaging moisture, Chassis Saver helps
vehicles resist road salts, gasoline, oil, battery acid and other solvents.
Fleet owners gain the maximum useful life from their vehicles by stopping
rust damage permanently, while saving the time and expense of laying down a
primer first and then a top coat afterwards.



"Chassis Saver is probably the best product I've ever seen when it comes to
protecting car and truck frames," says Ken Robinson of K & J Auto Works in
Ottsville, PA.  "We do a lot of diesel truck work.  With Chassis Saver, we
just pressure wash the frame, spray it on and we're done.  It holds up well,
it's very flexible, durable, and it doesn't chip.  Every customer that we do
it for ends up very pleased."

Chassis Saver allows application onto bare or rusted metal via brush,
roller, and all types of spray equipment.  High solids content and
high-build properties ensure that edges are completely covered with only two
or three coats.  

For surfaces exposed to sunlight, Magnet's Series 9000 Magnacryl* Acrylic
Enamels or Series 5000 Magnatron* Acrylic Polyurethane can be applied over
Chassis Saver to provide protection from ultra violet rays while imparting
rich color strength and a high gloss finish.  Chassis Saver can even accept
other manufacturer's top coats.

Environmentally conscious, Chassis Saver emits volatile organic compounds
(VOCs) of less than 2.09 lbs. per gallon (250 GPL).  Like all Magnet
coatings, Chassis Saver is free from lead and chromate hazards.
