Abstract
A waterborne barrier coating composition is provided for protecting interior wall, window and adjacent floor surfaces of paint spray booths from the adherence of unwanted paint overspray. The composition can also be used to protect decorative finishes from damage during assembly processes. The coating composition is applied via brush or spray methods as a mixture of water solubilized styrene/acrylic or acrylic acid polymer, alkali-swellable Acrylate/Steareth-20 Itaconate acid copolymer or alkali-swellable Acrylate/Ceteth-20 Itaconate acid copolymer, and water. No surfactant or polyol is required to form a suitable coating. The composition provides a fast drying transparent or pigmented hard coating that is easily removed by cold water.
