THE LAB WASH PRIMER
Professional Acid-Etch Primer for Maximum Metal Adhesion
At a Glance
THE LAB WASH PRIMER is a professional acid-etch primer developed to maximise adhesion on galvanised steel, aluminium, zinc-coated steel and other non-ferrous metal substrates. It chemically reacts with the metal surface to create a microscopic etch profile while depositing a protective bonding layer, providing the ideal foundation for high-performance protective and decorative coating systems. Perfect for industrial, commercial and fabrication applications where maximum adhesion is essential.
