FAQs

Can I use this primer on plastic parts?

No, this product is designed specifically for metal surfaces like aluminum, zinc, steel, and iron.

How long until I can apply the topcoat?

The primer is ready to sand in 30 minutes, after which you can apply your solvent-borne topcoat.

Is this a 1K or 2K primer?

This is a 1K spray product that is compatible with both 1K and 2K solvent-borne coating systems.

Does this provide rust protection?

Yes, it promotes strong adhesion which helps prevent corrosion on metal surfaces by sealing them beneath a durable coating.

Is it safe to use indoors?

Only if there is significant airflow and ventilation, though it is highly recommended to use in a ventilated spray booth or outdoors.

Troubleshooting

Primer is not adhering to the metal surface

Ensure the metal was properly cleaned and degreased before application. If contamination persists, sand the area and re-apply.

Spray nozzle is clogging

Clear the nozzle by holding the can upside down and pressing the nozzle until only propellant comes out.

Topcoat is bubbling or reacting

Verify that your topcoat is a solvent-borne 1K or 2K system and ensure the primer was fully cured before top-coating.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent bond strength on non-ferrous metals
  • Rapid drying time increases workflow efficiency
  • Compatible with both 1K and 2K solvent-borne systems
  • Ideal for both professional and DIY applications
  • Creates a consistent and smooth surface for top-coating

Cons

  • Requires well-ventilated work environment
  • Not intended for water-borne coating systems
  • Limited to metallic substrates

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure that the metal surface is completely free of grease, oil, and loose debris, as cleanliness is critical for the etch chemical reaction to bond properly. Shake the spray can vigorously for at least two minutes before use to ensure the contents are mixed correctly. Apply the spray at a consistent distance of 15–20 cm in a side-to-side motion. This product is compatible with all solvent-borne 1K and 2K systems. After use, clear the nozzle by turning the can upside down and spraying for a few seconds to prevent clogs. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
