Single-component primer based on special synthetic resins with fast drying time, containing anti-corrosive pigments. It is designed for direct application on various types of propellers made of both ferrous and non-ferrous materials, such as stainless steel, brass, aluminum, or light alloys. It forms a compact and elastic film. This primer is suitable for overcoating with both single- and two-component products, particularly with all CONTENDER antifouling paints for propellers, ensuring excellent adhesion to the substrate and easy application of subsequent coats. It is a highly versatile product, also suitable for use on various plastic materials such as fiberglass (GRP), or as a matte finish where high UV resistance is not required—for example: inside hulls, ribs, engine compartments—offering good resistance to oil and diesel
SURFACE PREPARATION AND APPLICATION CYCLE
Aluminum – Light Alloys – Steel – Brass. On a clean and dry surface, preferably roughened with coarse sandpaper (grit 80–100), where sandblasting or grinding is not possible. Dust off dry or degrease with Thinner 765 or Acetone. Apply one coat of MONOPRIMER and allow to dry for at least 2 hours. Recommended for application on propellers, to be completed with the application of 2 coats of CONTENDER ELIFAX antifouling paint.
