Definition:

One-Part Anti-Corrosion Wash Primer -ALN 002 003 10-

Edition 06/2011

Product Description

One-part anti-corrosion primer is a zinc chromate-free, polyvinylbutyral-based, single-component product for vehicle repairs. With its special pigment and binder composition it provides excellent protection against corrosion, outstanding adhesion and is also certified for welding. Nevertheless, this product non-conductive and therefore not suitable for spot-welding. For residual rust spots on corners and edges as well as bare-sanded areas, we recommend recoating using One-Part Anti-Corrosion Wash Primer -ALN 002 003 10- with a Two-Part HS Filler.

Application Instructions

Base Surface

Suitable base surfaces:

Cleaned and sanded, galvanized/electrolytically zinced sheet steel or soft aluminum

Sanded factory primer

Hardened, solvent-resistant, well-preserved and sanded old paint or factory paint (with the exception of thermoplastic paint)

Surfaces prepared with two-part polyester products and then sanded very fine.

Pre-treatment of base surfaces:

Carefully clean using Silicone Remover -LVM 020 000 A5- or Silicone Remover, Long -LVM 020 100 A5-.
One-Part Anti-Corrosion Wash Primer
Dry-sand with rotary sander and dust extraction, P400-500 grit.
One-Part Anti-Corrosion Wash Primer
Wet-sand with P800-1000 grit sandpaper. Thoroughly remove any potential rust spots and sand any transitions to old paint.
