Protea KF-20 Contrast color
NDT Protea KF-20 Contrast Paint is a fast-drying white contrast paint developed for use in magnetic particle inspection (MT/MPI) and other professional non-destructive testing (NDT). KF-20 is used as a background paint to create maximum contrast between the surface and the magnetic powder, so that indications and cracks are clearly visible.
The white contrast film from NDT Protea KF-20 provides a thin, even and opaque layer that enhances the visibility of black magnetic particles such as NDT Protea SM-11 . This provides more accurate and reliable inspection results when checking welds, castings and ferromagnetic materials.
Why choose NDT Protea KF-20?
✔ Optimal contrast during MT/MPI inspection
The KF-20 provides a white background that makes black indications very clear.
✔ Quick-drying formulation
Reduces waiting time and makes the inspection more efficient.
