International Etch Primer 500ml Yellow

Chromate-free vinyl etch primer

International Etch Primer is a two-pack primer using the latest technology that removes the requirement to use highly hazardous chemicals like chromates. Unlike other primers, Etch Primer is applied in thin films to provide anchorage of the subsequently applied paint system. Application of the chosen paint system leads to a reaction between the system and the Etch Primer resulting in enhanced adhesion levels.
