Description

Solvent-Based Engineering
Formulated with a traditional oil-based resin, this primer is designed to provide the ultimate foundation for solvent-based topcoats. Unlike water-based alternatives, its chemical composition allows for deep penetration into the surface profile of steel and timber, creating a mechanical bond that resists peeling. It cures to a durable semi-shine finish, providing a stable, non-porous base that significantly enhances the coverage and longevity of the final finish.

Active Corrosion Resistance
This primer is the first line of defence against oxidation. Infused with zinc phosphate anti-corrosive pigments (available in classic Red, Grey, or Buff), it creates an impermeable shield that stops moisture and oxygen from reaching the metal surface, effectively preventing the onset of rust. It is essential for treating structural steelwork, metal cladding, and heavy machinery before applying high-performance enamels, ensuring the asset remains protected in harsh industrial environments.

Trade Application
Built for professional use, this high-opacity primer is compatible with airless sprayers, rollers, and brushes. It is specifically calibrated to work as a system with Everest Trade Paints solvent-based topcoats, such as our Skip & Container Paint or Garage Door Paint. Whether priming weathered wood to prevent rot or sealing blasted steel, it offers excellent "wet edge" time and flow, smoothing out minor surface imperfections to create a professional-grade substrate.
