PREFABRICATION PRIMERS FOR STRUCTURAL STEEL WORK

AFTER 18 MONTHS EXPOSURE OF SEVERAL DIFFERENT SAMPLES A PHENOLIC-RESIN MODIFIED SINGLE-PACK ETCH PRIMER WAS FOUND TO HAVE ADVANTAGES /COST, EASE AND CONSISTENCY OF APPLICATION, CORROSION PROTECTION/ OVER ALUMINUM AND ZINC- CONTAINING PRIMERS IN HOLDING BLAST-CLEANED STRUCTURAL STEEL WORK UNTIL IT CAN BE PAINTED ON SITE. IT IS EFFECTIVE EVEN IN THIN FILMS, AND WHERE RUSTING OF THE EXPOSED STEEL SURFACE DOES OCCUR IT IS LIGHT AND MORE UNIFORM THAN WITH ZN-CONTAINING PRIMERS AND THE SURFACE IS EASILY PREPARED FOR SUBSEQUENT PAINTING. WHERE THE PRIMER FILM IS STILL LARGELY INTACT THERE IS LESS DIFFICULTY WHEN OVERCOATING BY CONVENTIONAL PAINT SYSTEMS. /AUTHOR/
