CRC 3013 Heavy Film Soft Seal 300g

CRC 3013 Heavy Film Soft Seal 300g

Protect your electrical connections, metal components, and sensitive surfaces with the CRC 3013 Heavy Film Soft Seal, a professional-grade protective coating engineered to lock out moisture, salt spray, and corrosive contaminants with a durable yet flexible amber film.

Product Overview

The CRC 3013 Heavy Film Soft Seal is a long-lasting corrosion inhibitor and moisture barrier in a convenient 300g aerosol format. Once applied, it forms a dry, transparent amber film that seals surfaces against humidity, salt water, and environmental contaminants, making it ideal for automotive, marine, industrial, and electrical applications across Australia's harshest conditions.

Unlike rigid coatings that crack and flake over time, the Heavy Film Soft Seal remains permanently flexible so it never becomes brittle or compromises the surfaces it protects. It's safe to use on plastics, rubber, painted surfaces, and insulation materials, and can be easily reapplied over existing film without removal. When stripping is required, CRC Brakleen or mineral spirits make clean removal straightforward.

Features & Benefits

• Seals out moisture and corrosive contaminants, ideal for exposed electrical connections, terminals, and metal components
• Forms a dry, transparent amber film highly resistant to humidity, salt water, and salt spray
• Never becomes brittle and will not crack, peel, or flake over time, maintaining long-term protection
• Material safe and will not attack plastic, rubber, paint, or insulation material
• Easy re-application, apply directly over existing film or clean surfaces without stripping
• Passes 400 hours of salt spray testing, proven protection in extreme marine and coastal environments
• Solvent removable, strip easily with CRC Brakleen or mineral spirits when required
• Wide temperature range rated from -20°C to +100°C for reliable performance in all Australian conditions

Technical Specs

Compatible With / Goes Well With

The CRC 3013 Heavy Film Soft Seal is suited for use across automotive, marine, agricultural, and industrial environments. It works effectively on:

• Agricultural and off-road equipment including exposed chassis components, switch gear, and electrical systems subject to mud, moisture, and chemical exposure
• Workshop and industrial equipment including stored metal parts, tools, and machinery components requiring long-term corrosion protection

Goes well with:

• CRC 5065 Brakleen (for removal and surface prep)
• CRC 2-26 Multi-Purpose Lubricant (for pre-treatment of electrical contacts)
• CRC 5084 Heavy Duty Degreaser (for surface cleaning before application)

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What surfaces can I apply CRC 3013 Heavy Film Soft Seal to?

A: CRC 3013 is safe for use on metal, plastic, rubber, painted surfaces, and insulation materials. It will not attack or degrade these materials, making it suitable for electrical components, wiring, chassis parts, and more.

Q: How long does the protective film last?

A: The film is rated to withstand 400 hours of salt spray testing, making it highly durable in coastal and marine environments. Service life will vary depending on environmental exposure, and regular re-application over existing film is recommended for ongoing protection in harsh conditions.

Q: Do I need to remove the old film before reapplying?

A: No. One of the key advantages of CRC 3013 is that it can be applied directly over existing film without stripping. For best results on heavily contaminated or degraded surfaces, clean first with CRC Brakleen or mineral spirits before reapplying.

Q: Can I use this product on automotive electrical terminals and connectors?

A: Yes. CRC 3013 is well suited to protecting battery terminals, fuse box contacts, wiring harness connectors, and other exposed electrical connections. It seals out moisture and corrosion without affecting conductivity when applied as a coating over already-connected terminals.

Q: What is the temperature range for CRC 3013 Heavy Film Soft Seal?

A: CRC 3013 is rated to perform between -20°C and +100°C. This makes it suitable for engine bay applications, undercarriage components, and equipment exposed to both cold and high-heat environments without the film cracking or losing effectiveness.
