Integument Technologies, Inc., proposes to develop and provide fluoropolymer (e.g. Teflon®) based paint replacement appliqué (i.e., wrap) systems that randomly distribute camouflage pigment in a non-repeating pattern over various Army land and sea vehicles. This applique system has to date been developed on previous DOD programs and offers the advantage of (1)Novel adhesive backings for long term use with the added feature of being easy to apply and remove for rapid depot or field camouflage reconfiguration.(2)Resistance and stability to Mil-fluid requirements for application on military vehicles as determined via previous testing. (3)Superior resistance and long term stability to relevant weathering including UV and Saltand SO2 Spray. (4)Superior CARC characteristics as compared to existing CARC paints without environmental or human toxicity problems associated with current CARC paints, and (5)Excellent Fire and Smoke features that pass DoD and FAA requirements for application on Air Force and Navy shelters and aircraft
