Fast dry metal primer is an anti corrosive, solvent based metal primer for ferrous metals. Our metal primer is intended for mild steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, cast and wrought Iron. Touch dry in 15 minutes, it’s ideal for spray application. Gives excellent protection to your surface before application of Fast Dry Gloss top coat.

Fast dry metal primer is ideal for situations where you need to apply a primer quickly and easily. Gives long term protection due to modified zinc phosphate, making it great for use on machinery, tools, structural steel, scaffolding and more.

If you are using a rust remover, note that some rust removers (based on phosphoric acid) tend to leave an electrically insulating film on ferrous metals. We advise you not use these or to remove them with an appropriate cleaner before applying our fast dry metal primer.

Preparation:

Proper surface preparation is essential for the success of any protective coating system. Before you begin ensure the area is free from any dust, oil, grease, old coatings and surface contaminants.

Ideal enhanced protection beneath Palatine’s selected Top Coats.
For non-ferrous metals use Palatine Fast Dry etching primer.
A test area on unknown previously painted surfaces must be carried out prior to full application
Rub down previously gloss painted surfaces with fine waterproof abrasive paper and rinse thoroughly.

Application:

Best results are obtained in warm (minimum 10°C), dry conditions.

Mix thoroughly for approximately 2 minutes using a drill stirrer. A wooden batten at least 25mm wide is also ideal.
For spray application by either airless or conventional spray a dilution ration of no more than 10% is recommended with Palatine Multi Purpose Thinners by volume.
Apply an even coat using a brush (rapid strokes) or a solvent resistant roller.
For application onto wooden surfaces, a minimum of two coats is recommended.
