Carboline's official TDS PDF is blocked to automated access (robots.txt) — I could not pull volume solids, DFT or pack size from it. If you can download it from your Carboline rep or account, send it over and I'll fill in the rest with real numbers instead of leaving them blank.

Substrate Preparation

  • Corrosivity Category: Suitable for direct-to-metal application in C1–C3 environments without a primer.
  • Higher Corrosivity: For C4–C5 environments, apply over an appropriate Carboline primer system.

  • Specific primer product names/DFT ranges were not published in the sources I could access — confirm the approved primer system with Carboline for your substrate and corrosivity category.

Application

  • Two-component polyurethane, mixed per Carboline's stated ratio before application (ratio not published in the sources checked).
  • Formulated for fast-drying, high-build application with excellent dry times relative to standard polyurethane topcoats.

Drying Schedule

Specific tack-free, recoat and full-cure times were not published in the sources I could access for this product — Carboline's official data sheet is blocked to automated fetching. Confirm with Carboline or your TDS copy before publishing exact hours.

Third-Party Certifications & Compliance

  • No third-party fire or corrosion certifications were found in the sources checked for this specific product — as a topcoat it is typically used as part of a certified system rather than certified on its own. Confirm with Carboline if a specific approval is required for your project.

MVL DC68 | Water-Based Fabric Flame-Retardant Spray

NFPA 701-Compliant Flame Protection for Curtains, Upholstery and Soft Furnishings. Non-toxic, colorless and odorless formula that doesn’t alter fabric look or feel.

MVL DC68
Fire Resistance Rating N/A — Fabric Flame-Retardant Treatment
Product Type Water-Based, Non-Toxic Flame Retardant Spray
Mechanism of Action Converts Combustible Gases to Non-Combustible N₂ / CO₂
Formula Profile Colorless, Odorless, Hypoallergenic
Regulatory Standard NFPA 701
Coverage / Dry Time / VOC Not published in the sources checked

Important: unlike every other product in this catalog, MVL DC68 is a textile/fabric flame-retardant spray — not a UL-rated structural steel fireproofing coating. It's built here in the same interactive-tabs format for catalog consistency, but the specification categories are different by nature of the product. Source: MVL Firestop's own product listing and the equivalent DC-68 fabric spray technical materials from its manufacturer (International Fireproof Technology Inc. / IFTI).

Suitable Applications

  • Curtains, drapes, carpets, rugs, upholstery, decorations, paper products, sleeping bags, mattresses, wallpaper, and similar water-absorbent fabrics.

Not Intended For

  • Clothing — the manufacturer explicitly excludes garments from the product's intended use.

This tab covers material compatibility rather than steel surface preparation, since DC68 is applied to fabric and soft furnishings, not structural steel.

Application

  • Applied by spray to water-absorbent fabric surfaces.
  • Does not significantly alter the appearance, texture, or ventilation properties of treated materials.

Drying Schedule

Specific dry time, coverage rate and flash point were not published in the sources I could access for this product. Ask MVL for the full technical data sheet and I'll fill these in with real numbers.

Third-Party Certifications & Compliance

  • UL Certificate of Compliance to NFPA 701.
  • Registered with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (State Fire Marshal).
  • Referenced for compliance with IBC Sections 424.2(5)(8), 806.3, and 806.4.
