WHITE PRIMER, INDUSTRIAL GRADE, OIL BASE

This industrial-grade, oil-based white primer is engineered to provide superior adhesion and corrosion protection for ferrous and non-ferrous metal surfaces. Its robust alkyd formulation creates a durable, uniform base, ensuring maximum topcoat performance and longevity in demanding MRO and fabrication environments.

  • Industrial Grade Alkyd (Oil-Based)
  • Direct-to-Metal (DTM)
  • Excellent Corrosion Resistance
  • Surface Preparation & Protection
Overview | Specifications | Applications | Finish Options | How to Measure | Order Checklist

Formulated with a high-solids alkyd resin system, this oil-based white primer penetrates and bonds to metal substrates to inhibit rust and corrosion. Its composition is optimized for direct-to-metal (DTM) application, creating a tough, resilient film that withstands moisture, mild chemical exposure, and abrasion. This primer offers excellent hiding power and a smooth, non-porous surface, providing an ideal foundation for a wide range of industrial topcoats, including enamels and epoxies. It is designed for easy application via brush, roller, or spray gun.

This versatile primer is a critical component for maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) and new fabrication projects. It is ideal for preparing structural steel, machinery, equipment, metal fencing, and ornamental iron for final painting. In commercial and industrial settings, it serves as the first line of defense against environmental degradation, extending the service life of metal assets. This industrial-grade primer ensures that subsequent paint layers adhere properly and achieve their intended protective and aesthetic qualities.

Specifications

  • Material: Alkyd Resin (Oil-Based)
  • Standards: Meets performance criteria for industrial metal coatings
  • VOC Content: Compliant with industrial regulations
  • Dimensions: Available in 1-Gallon Cans and 5-Gallon Pails
  • Finish: Matte White
  • Certifications: Industrial Quality Certified

Applications

  • Fabrication & Manufacturing: Priming newly fabricated steel parts, frames, and weldments before top coating.
  • MRO & Facility Maintenance: Protecting machinery, equipment, and structural components from rust and corrosion.
  • Construction: Applying a protective base coat to steel beams, railings, and miscellaneous metals.
  • Architectural & Ornamental Iron: Ensuring a durable, long-lasting finish for fences, gates, and decorative metalwork.

Target Users

This product is essential for industrial painters, metal fabricators, maintenance technicians, and MRO professionals who require a high-performance primer for protecting metal assets in commercial and industrial environments.

Finish Options

This product provides a consistent matte white finish, specifically designed to promote excellent adhesion for subsequent topcoats. It serves as the foundational layer for various paint systems, including gloss, satin, and semi-gloss alkyd or epoxy finishes.

How to Measure

To order the correct amount, calculate the total square footage of the surface to be primed. A typical gallon of this primer covers approximately 250-350 square feet, depending on surface porosity and application method. Ensure you account for a potential second coat on raw or heavily rusted steel.

Example: Project requires priming 1,000 sq. ft. of steel. Order specification: 4 x 1-Gallon Cans of White Primer, Industrial Grade, Oil Base.
