Fp401 Epoxy Primer Dtm Hvid
About the product
FP400/401 is a 2K Epoxy corrosion protection primer DTM (direct to metal) with excellent adhesion properties. This Epoxy primer has excellent air- and force dry capabilities. FP400/401 can be used as wet on wet and for higher thicknesses of up to 120µm.
This epoxy primer needs recoating with topcoat. It is possible to add 5% color toner to FP401 Epoxy Primer white to tint.
Substrates: Iron, steel, stainless steel (blasted), cast iron, galvanized steel, aluminum, glass fiber reinforced plastics.
Other: Solvent resistant surfaces, cleaned/sanded/hardened original and cured coatings.
Iron/steel: Abrasive shot blasting is recommended or dry sanding P80 – P180
Aluminum: P180 – P240
Galvanized: Sweep blasting recommended
Paint finishes: P240 – P320 (Please, check and change abrasive paper regularly as required)
Cleaning: Surface must be dry and free from any contamination, e.g. oil, grease & release agents.
Use RS405 Epoxy Reducer, RS605/607/609 Universal Reducer for metal substrate or AD690
Solvent Degreaser for metal substrate/paint finishes.
Topcoat: Recoat from a range of VIM Topcoats-, Synthetic: TB300 / TB300 + AD300 / TB300 + AD309
PU Topcoats: TB500/510/511/512/520/TW518/TY518
