842ARL is a 1-part silver acrylic paint that cures at room temperature and provides exceptional shielding from electromagnetic interference across a wide spectral range. This coating uses a highly engineered silver flake that enables exceptional shielding even at low film thicknesses, helping to extend coverage and lower costs. The cured film is highly flexible and has a pleasing, lustrous esthetic. It can be applied by either spray or brush.

The broadband protection afforded by silver acrylic paint makes it attractive for use in industries such as automotive, aerospace, communications, and military. Its low film build also makes it a suitable option for package-level shielding, replacing expensive methods like canning or stamping.

MG Chemicals also offers a more cost-effective silver-coated copper version and a water-based version for use on wood or drywall, an epoxy version for use on metal or glass or when extreme durability is required, as well as versions that can survive wave-soldering for board-level applications.
