The Great Victoria Desert: For our fourth Meoxal® pigment, we took this desert in southern Australia as our inspiration. Taken together, the elements there form a breathtaking beauty composed of red earth, drought-defying flora and the radiant horizon with its unfathomable expanse. This wild desert captivates with its intense colors and extraordinary brilliance.

The new Meoxal® Victoria Red consolidates exactly this color luminance. The pigment's extraordinary color saturation and high opacity fire up red tones in particular, and give them an immense radiance and intensity. Meoxal® Victoria Red therefore combines flowing transitions with consistently color-intense surfaces and clearly accentuated degrees of brightness to create an exciting interplay – thrilling and harmonious at the same time.

APPLICATIONMeoxal® F120-51 CWT Victoria Red is supplied as a paste, consisting of carbitol and 70% pigment. CWT stands for “Carbitol and Weather Treated” and is a specific surface treatment for this new class of pigments. CWT improves the incorporation into many paint systems, especially in waterborne systems for which no additional passivation process is required. It fulfills especially high demands for outdoor applications such as automotive coatings and other high-end paint applications.
