High Performance (H.P.) PRIMER F-938 is an fast dry primer specifically developed to increase adhesion of PLASTI DIP® F-820/ F-819 or F-698 to metal surfaces. H.P. PRIMER F-938 can be sprayed, dipped or brushed and offers fast set up time with a high coverage rate.
Typically applied in one coat, only extreme corrosion and abrasion require a second coat, eliminating extensive preparation for most applications. H.P. PRIMER F-938 is recommended on all metal surfaces, especially galvanized, to prevent peeling of coating if it becomes damaged, reducing the amount of time to repair the damaged area. For best results apply coating over H.P. PRIMER F-938 as soon as it is dry to the touch. H.P. PRIMER F-938 is not recommended for use as a protective coating on its own.
