Product Description
Syn. Primer Red Oxide that we are offering is a specially formulated coating that is used as a base coat for ferrous metal. It serves a similar purpose to interior wall primers. This formulation is extremely pure and effective. It gives iron and steel surface a layer of protection. This Primer Red Oxide makes the surface resistant to corrosion, abrasion, humidity, and other unfavorable factors. To cater to the diverse demands of our customers, we are supplying the product in varied packaging options.
Superior Metal ProtectionSyn. Primer Red Oxide delivers excellent adhesion and robust corrosion resistance for ferrous metal surfaces, forming a durable matt finish that actively prevents rust. Its advanced oil-based formulation is compatible with most synthetic topcoats, ensuring a strong coating system for long-lasting results. Designed for both brush and spray applications, it dries quickly and is perfect for metalwork, machinery, and infrastructure projects.
Easy Application and Fast DryingThis primer comes in a ready-to-use, single pack format, so no mixing is required before application. Its optimized viscosity offers smooth application by brush or spray. The surface dries within 30 minutes to an hour, allowing rapid recoating in just 8-12 hours. This efficiency streamlines project timelines while maintaining performance standards.
Convenient Packaging and StorageAvailable in 1, 4, and 20 litre packs, Syn. Primer Red Oxide is tailored to projects of any scale. With a shelf life of 12 months in sealed containers and recommended storage conditionscool, dry, and shielded from sunlightproduct stability and effectiveness are assured, meeting commercial and industrial requirements.
FAQs of Syn. Primer Red Oxide:
Q: How should Syn. Primer Red Oxide be applied for optimal protection?
A: For best results, apply the primer directly onto clean, dry ferrous metal surfaces using a brush or spray. Achieve a film thickness of 30-40 microns per coat, and ensure the area remains well ventilated during application.
Q: What is the recommended drying and recoating time for this primer?
A: Syn. Primer Red Oxide dries to the touch in 30 minutes to 1 hour at 30C. Recoating can typically be done after 8-12 hours, ensuring proper adhesion and durability.
Q: When should the primer be used during a metal painting process?
A: The primer should be applied as the first coat on raw or prepared ferrous metals. Once dry, it provides an effective base for synthetic topcoats, optimizing adhesion and corrosion resistance.
Q: Where should Syn. Primer Red Oxide be stored for maximum shelf life?
A: Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep containers tightly sealed to maintain its stability and shelf life, which is 12 months from the manufacturing date.
Q: What benefit does Syn. Primer Red Oxide offer over standard primers?
A: This primer provides superior rust protection, excellent metal adhesion, and compatibility with most synthetic topcoats, making it a reliable choice for extending the lifespan of metal surfaces.
Q: How is Syn. Primer Red Oxide prepared for application?
A: No mixing is needed prior to use; it is a single pack, ready-to-use primer. If thinning is required for spray application, use mineral turpentine oil as recommended.
Q: Is Syn. Primer Red Oxide safe to use and environmentally compliant?
A: Under recommended usage conditions, the primer is non-toxic and contains less than 350 g/litre of VOC, contributing to a safer working environment.
