Features

You'll save time and labor and add quality with Duratec Polyester Base Primer.

Here's why you should choose Duratec Polyester Base Primer--

Easy to apply -- apply with a sprayer, brush or roller.

Rapid coat buildup--builds quickly--between 1 to 3 mm, 40-120 mils, maximum wet-on-wet application with minimum sag on vertical surfaces.

Quick Shaping--quickly shaped by knife, file or sandpaper.

Fast air curing--saves time. The primer quickly air cures to an easily sandable surface, which provides a stable base for other coatings.

High heat distortion temperature--reduces the risk of post-cure or distortion from elevated temperature due to exotherm and consequential print-through of substrates.
