CORO-BOND

ONE-PART ETCHING PRIMER

CORO-BOND™ Super Etch Primer is a one-component etching (wash primer) that may also be used as a rust inhibitive universal primer. This product etches metal to create profile, and then forms a tough, durable epoxy primer film that adheres to common metals. This product may be finish coated with a wide variety of coatings including alkyds, acrylics, epoxies, urethanes and moisture cured urethanes. It may be left uncoated for up to 3 months at 77°F prior to finish coating in interior applications. In exterior applications, if more than 2 weeks elapse, the primer film should be cleaned to remove any chalk that may have formed. This product is lead and chromate free. CORO-BOND™ Super Etch Primer is a high performance coating specifically designed for application directly to ferrous and non-ferrous metal substrates. It provides corrosion resistance as well as primary adhesion.   In OTC regulated states, this product is not VOC compliant except for shop application.

Topic: Pool Painting w/Chlorinated Rubber Pool Paint

INSL-X Pool Paint

 

Pool Painting has proven to be tricky over time.  Think about it, you're painting a surface that's constantly submerged under chemically infused water with fluctuating ph levels.  Margin for error is already high.  However, if you can be patient and follow a few important guidelines, you can and will be successful.  We have two options for painting pools, chlorinated rubber pool paint or epoxy.  Today, we're going to go over chlorinated rubber.  Check out below.

 

IMPORTANT POOL PAINTING TIPS

  1.   Do not apply chlorinated rubber over epoxy or water base pool paints.  All pool paints should be applied over the same type of paint.
  2. Allow surface to dry completely before painting.  You don't want to trap any moisture under the coating.
  3. Do not paint in direct rays of sun.  Being xylene based, rapid drying can occur, causing solvent entrapment.  This will result in tiny pinholes or blistering in the paint film. 
  4. Do not paint if rain is expected within 4-6 hours. 
  5. Do not use muriatic on any painted surface.  Use muriatic acid only on bare masonry surfaces.
  6. Prepare painted surfaces adequately.  Proper surface prep is critical.
  7. Apply in THIN COATS. 
  8. Allow paint to dry for 7 DAYS before filling with water.
