GRAY PRIMER, INDUSTRIAL GRADE, OIL BASE - HWPAPAT510B

This industrial-grade, oil-based gray primer is engineered to provide a durable, corrosion-resistant foundation on metal surfaces. Its high-adhesion formula ensures a strong bond for subsequent topcoats, making it ideal for MRO, fabrication, and equipment refinishing projects.

  • Oil-Based (Alkyd) Formulation
  • Excellent Corrosion Resistance
  • High-Adhesion for Metal Surfaces
  • Application: MRO & Fabrication
Overview | Specifications | Applications | Finish Options | How to Measure | Order Checklist

Our HWPAPAT510B Gray Primer is a robust, oil-based alkyd coating designed for industrial applications. Formulated for direct-to-metal (DTM) use, it creates a tenacious bond with properly prepared steel, iron, and other ferrous metals. This primer effectively seals the substrate, inhibiting the formation and spread of rust and corrosion. Its industrial-grade composition provides a uniform, matte surface that is highly receptive to a wide range of industrial topcoats, including enamels and epoxies, ensuring a long-lasting, professional finish for critical assets.

This primer is a critical first step in any comprehensive coating system for metal assets. It is extensively used in maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) for touching up machinery, structural steel, and plant equipment. Fabricators in the Los Angeles area rely on it for finishing newly created metal parts, fences, and ornamental ironwork. Its durable formulation provides essential protection against weathering and mild chemical exposure, making it a versatile solution for both interior and exterior industrial hardware applications.

Specifications

  • Material: Oil-Based Alkyd
  • Standards: Meets General Industrial Performance Benchmarks
  • Coverage: Varies by application method and surface porosity (Approx. 200-400 sq. ft./gallon)
  • Packaging: Available in Aerosol Cans and 1-Gallon Containers
  • Finish: Gray Matte
  • Certifications: Industrial Grade Quality

Applications

  • Fabrication & Manufacturing: Priming new steel components, weldments, and custom metal parts before final painting.
  • Maintenance & Repair (MRO): Refinishing industrial machinery, equipment, storage tanks, and structural supports.
  • Construction: Protecting structural steel beams, frames, and metal decking from corrosion.
  • Architectural & Ornamental: Providing a base coat for fences, gates, railings, and decorative ironwork.

Target Users

This primer is ideal for industrial painters, maintenance technicians, metal fabricators, and welding shops who require a reliable, high-performance coating for protecting metal assets in commercial and industrial settings.

Finish Options

This product provides a functional gray matte finish, specifically designed to promote strong adhesion for a variety of topcoats. It is the foundational layer, not a final finish. It is compatible with most industrial alkyd, epoxy, and polyurethane topcoats, which are available in gloss, satin, and various colors.

How to Measure

To specify the correct amount of primer, calculate the total square footage of the surface area to be coated. Consult the product's technical data sheet for specific coverage rates (typically listed as square feet per gallon). Always account for potential waste (approx. 10-15%) depending on the application method (spray, brush, roll).

Example: A project requires coating 500 sq. ft. of steel, and the primer coverage is 300 sq. ft./gallon. You would need a minimum of two 1-gallon containers.
