Coo-Var Water Based All Metals Primer
This water-based all-metals primer is designed to provide excellent adhesion and anti-corrosive protection for a wide range of metal surfaces. It is suitable for use on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, including iron, steel, aluminium, brass, copper, and galvanised surfaces. With its matt finish, the primer ensures a perfect base for topcoat applications, enhancing the longevity of the final coating.
Key Features
- Provides excellent anti-corrosive protection for most metals.
- Available in red and grey with a smooth matt finish.
- Water-based and low VOC, making it eco-friendly and safer to use.
- Offers strong adhesion for both ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
- Fast drying and suitable for brush, roller, or airless spray application.
- Ideal for use as an undercoat for most metal surfaces, including galvanised metals.
Application Instructions
Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease or oil before applying the primer. For iron and steel, blast cleaning to SA 2½ is recommended to remove rust, dust, and scale. If blast cleaning is not feasible, mechanical cleaning should be employed. Special care must be taken with aluminium and galvanised surfaces; they should be degreased and abraded for maximum adhesion. The product can be applied using a brush, roller, or airless spray, and it should not be applied below 7°C. Recoat intervals are 6 hours, and full hardness is achieved within 3-5 days at 20°C.
Usage Restrictions
Do not apply the primer in temperatures below 7°C, as this can affect the drying time and performance of the coating. It should not be used on heavily corroded surfaces without proper surface preparation, as this will reduce its effectiveness. In confined spaces, always ensure there is adequate ventilation during application and drying. For heavily galvanised or previously painted surfaces, use a suitable topcoat to enhance durability. Always refer to the downloadable data sheet for more detailed recommendations and restrictions.

This product is non-flammable and does not contain any substances classified as PBT or vPvB.
