![]() Frequently Asked Questions
I've heard of Type II CARC, but what is Type III CARC?
Type III is Type II water-dispersible CARC with the polymeric beads in touch-up format. It exists as Type III because the applicator can actually change the performance qualities of the CARC material. As an example, the type of propellant used can adversely affect the material, as can the type of foam used in the roller. Many foams will “strain” out the high solids and affect the IR signature reduction properties. For this reason, products are tested and qualified before being approved for sale. In order to enhance performance even more, MILSPRAY’s products address other issues as well, such as creating the required chemical shear to adquately mix the components. We insert a miniature static mixer into the paint intake tube of the aerosol product to properly agitate component A and component B just before they are atomized.
I can't find an MSDS by the NSN - why is that?
MSDS, or the Material Safety Data Sheet, gives health and safety information regarding a specific paint material, regardless of application method. NSNs are assigned to a product in relation to the paint material AND application method - for example, 8010-01-546-7712 refers to MIL-DTL-64159 CARC material in Green 34094 in an aerosol applicator, while 8010-01-546-7585 refers to the same material but in a brush applicator. MSDSs only apply to the MIL-SPEC material, so they are listed by that number. This means that you do not need to refer back to an NSN in order to obtain an MSDS - simply look for the MIL-SPEC material and color and go from there. The same paint is used in our aerosol, brush, roller, quarts, and vacuum gun bottles - only the way you choose to apply it changes. Our MSDSs can be found HERE.
I can't find product instructions, where can I find them?
Currently, we have product instructions for all of our CARC Touch-Up products in each applicator organzied by Miliatry branch. We also have product instructions for our primers in each applicator. Our product instructions can be found HERE.

Can you expedite shipment of your products? If so, how long would it take?

Can you overnight ship your touch-up paint products?
