GOODEnamel Alkyd Acrylic – solvent based Acrylic – water based (but many are unsuitable for steel protection). Epoxy Coal Tar Epoxy High build epoxies Micaceous iron oxide Synthetic resin Catalysed urethanes (2 pack)
GOOD – butAlkyd / long oil types – possibly long drying Chlorinated rubber – possibly long curing, softer but dry eventually Nitro solvent based – can soften Water based vinyl emulsions – need intermediate primer to avoid bleed Solvent based vinyls – require intermediate acrylic bond coat
PRIMERS CONTAINING THE FOLLOWING PIGMENTS SHOULD NOT BE APPLIED OVER FERONITE RUSTY METAL PRIMER Zinc dust (zinc rich primers) Zinc chromate Zinc phosphate Strontium chromate Copper powder (anti-fouling paints) Magnesium borate Graphite Carbon black (in high concentration, e.g. in conductive paints)
Feronite Rusty Metal Primer contains anti-corrosive pigments, therefore the use of the above primers would have little if any additional anti-corrosive protective effect.
NOTESome primers contain a strong solvent which can leach a trace of tannin which leads to a brown streak appearing. This is not recommenced rusting, and subsequent painting will conceal the streaking. RECOMMENDATIONSEpoxy undercoats followed by polyurethane topcoats are most recommended for marine applications.
