Industrial Metal Primer Grey 20L

DESCRIPTION:

GalMax™ ZPH Grey Oxide Metal Primer is a high-quality oil-based rust-resistant primer, ideal for use on non-galvanised, ferrous metals, such as iron and steel. Its corrosion-resistant colored oxide pigments protect surfaces from exposure to chemical fumes and extreme environmental conditions, such as excessive heat, humidity, rain, and wind.
ZPH is quick-drying and designed to provide a tough, durable, and smooth base coat that can be used directly over rusty surfaces. It is ideal for interior and exterior use and can be over-coated with most conventional top coats. GalMax™ ZPH also offers extreme weather corrosion protection for farm equipment, fences, structural steel, pipes, field machinery, and storage tanks, and when applied as a base coat over rusty surfaces, will inhibit the spread of any further corrosion.

APPLICATION:

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of contaminants, removing all scale and rust as far as possible before application. Do not use acidic rust converters or removers. Do not paint over loose or unsound surfaces. Drying times are temperature-dependent.
Aerosol: Invert the can and shake well for at least one minute. Shake often during use. Hold the can upright and angle the fan jet for a horizontal or vertical pattern. Apply in even sweeping strokes approximately 250mm to 300mm from the surface. Apply several light coats a few minutes apart rather than one heavy coat. After spraying, invert the can and press the nozzle to clear the jet. If blocked, use fuse wire and mineral turps to clean the nozzle.
Bulk Liquid: Before use, stir contents thoroughly for 5 minutes using a flat stirrer with a circular, lifting motion. Stir occasionally during use. Apply 2 coats for optimum protection by brush, roller, or spray equipment.
Do not paint at temperatures below 15oC or above 40oC. Avoid high humidity
