This is NOT a request for proposals or quotes and in no way obligates the Government to award any contract. The United States Coast Guard (USCG) Aviation Logistics Center is conducting market research seeking sources that provide or manufacture various coatings utilized on USCG aircraft. The coating system on USCG aircraft provides the primary barrier against the severe maritime operating environments and protects the aircraft from corrosion. For these reasons, the USCG requires an aerospace high-durability coating system defined as an epoxy primer and a polyurethane topcoat produced by the same manufacturer. The primers are required to be both chromium based and non-chromium based corrosion inhibitor primers. The topcoats are required to provide an extended weatherability coating available in gloss and flat finishes. The USCG requires the coatings system to be on the Qualified Product List (QPL) of the specifications as stated in Attachments 2 & 3. Responses should state specific part numbers for each coating system that meets the standards as stated in Attachment 2 & 3. If certain container sizes as stated cannot be provided, alternate sizes should be listed in responses for the USCG to evaluate feasibility for USCG purposes. The USCG also utilizes an AMS-3144 anodic electrodeposition primer. All primers required for this electrodeposition system must be validated by the OEM for use on the Coast Guard�s equipment in order to meet the specifications and the requirements of the system. Responses to this notice should include company name, address, telephone number, and point of contact (POC). Please provide the details and terms of any standard warranty included with the product.
