I am doing some car repairs 1. Is this suitable for Zintec sheet steel? 2. Can this be used as a weld through primer? If not do you recommend a compatible weld through primer thanks

Unfortunately no this is not suitable for application to zintec steel. For a weld through primer you could consider Jotun Muki AC . This is a shop primer for high welding and cutting speed.

What colour is the rust primer and do you also sell an exterior gloss piller box red paint.

Bonda Rust Primer is a Red Oxide coloured Primer, designed to prevent rusting for a long-term protection, leaving a primed surface ready to paint with most types of paint. To check for compatibility and adhesion, you could overpaint with Rust-Oleum CombiColor Original , you would need to apply to a small test area firstly before full application. Alternatively, for a tested system, a primer coat of Rust-Oleum 3369/3380 CombiPrimer Anti-Corrosion followed by two coats of Rust-Oleum CombiColor Original could also be applied for suitably prepared steel.

Is this primer suitable for steel radiators?

Thank you for your enquiry. This primer is generally used for application to vehicle bodywork, however assuming the radiator is steel that is clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical datasheet, you can apply to a radiator, however we would recommend to apply to a small test area firstly to check for comaptibility.

Hi. I have found a cast iron hopper dated 1867…! Found it in my local woods. I have wire brushed it down to remove as much rust as possible and is now looking good. Am thinking of applying Bonda primer. Would this work on cast iron. How much do you think I would need. Thinking of just 1 litre tin. Thanks fir your advice.

Assuming the hopper is clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet with as much of the rust removed as possible this could be applied. The coverage rate for this product is 7m² per litre per coat.

I intend to use Bona Primer as a primer on a Land Rover chassis. In places the chassis is quite rusty and I had intended to first treat that rust with a rust converter such as Ku Rust. I have read somewhere that Bona Primer should be applied direct to the rust and that rust converters should not be used. Is this correct? Many thanks.

Bonda Rust Primer can be applied directly to rust, but that said the rust should be (mechanically) removed/reduced to present as a flat a surface as possible for priming. We would not recommend the use of a rust converter with this product.

Can Bonda Primer be use on galvanised steel sheet? Many Thanks

Unfortunately no this is not suitable for application to galvanised steel.

ColourPicker Explained

In general we sort colours for products into 2 main groups - ‘Ready Mixed’ and ‘Tinted’.
Tinted colours will always be more expensive than Ready Mixed colours as they need to be produced at the time of order using a tinting machine dispensing colourant into a base*.
During busy periods, this means that tinted colours could take longer, for example – a ready mixed colour ordered on a 3-5 day delivery might arrive within 3 days, however a tinted colour might take the full 5 days to arrive.

To find Ready Mixed colours, search "ready mixed" or select the Ready Mixed 'colour chart'. To see Tinted colours select a colour chart such as RAL, BS, NCS, etc. or search for a colour/hue to see available or related options.

To ensure fair pricing, we split colours into ‘Price Bands’ to group together similar priced colours. If you wish to search for the cheapest tinted colours, always select Price Band 1.

We make every effort to list all available colours, however we also offer a colour match service which can be accessed by contacting our Technical Team on 0113 245 5450 (option 2) or emailing [email protected]

*Colours are sold in the nearest tin size but actual paint volume per tin may vary up to 10% depending on colour
