Size Name:1 Gallon Aqua Prime #15 is a 100% acrylic, universal, direct-to-metal, water-based primer. Aqua Prime #15 offers excellent adhesion and fast drying. It may be used in areas where solvent fumes are a problem or ecological concerns dictate. May be top coated with conventional alkyd, oil based and latex paints. It also may be used as a bonding coat over zinc rich primers. Provides protection from rust bleed and flash rust--an excellent choice for galvanized and aluminum metal! Formulated from hybrid acrylic resins, it resists corrosion and is moisture, alkali, and mildew resistant. Aqua Prime #15 Contains NO lead pigments, is resistant and provides excellent coverage to the following properly prepared surfaces: Fiberglass, pre-painted surfaces, aluminum, ferrous or galvanized metal, structural steel, metal doors, pre-engineered metal building parts, and other metal that is exposed to a normal commercial or residential environment. Surface Preparation: The surface should be clean, dry, and free from all dirt, grease, oils, waxes, mildew and any other surface contaminants. Remove any loose scale, chalk or peeling paint. Glossy surfaces should be sanded to remove shine. Previously painted steel surfaces should be prepared in accordance with the Steel Structures Painting Council specifications. Application: Stir thoroughly. For thinning, use clean water sparingly to achieve desired consistency. Easily applied by brush, roller or spray. Avoid application outside late in the afternoon when there is a threat of moisture condensing on the wet paint. Allow 2 to 3 hours drying before re-coating. Roller application: We recommend using a 3/8” nap Spray application: Airless sprayer capable of 2500 PSI with a .015-.017 tip. Aqua Prime #15 covers roughly 300 square feet per gallon. KEEP FROM FREEZING Do not apply when temperatures are below 50°F. Coatings should only be applied when ventilation is adequate
