Epoxy Ester Iron Red Primer
Description
Epoxy Ester Iron Red Primer is formulated by esterifying epoxy resin with vegetable oleic acid, then grinding the esterified product with iron oxide red, zinc yellow, and iron black pigments, along with extender pigments. Drying agents and solvents are added for final adjustment. This coating is widely used as a primer for various metals, anti-corrosion coatings for chemical equipment, and base protection for automobiles, tractors, and other machinery.
Best For
- steel structure protection
- industrial floor systems
- heavy-duty anti-corrosion projects
Buyer Benefits
- strong adhesion to prepared substrates
- good chemical resistance
- suitable for multi-coat protective systems
Key Features
- The paint film is hard and durable, providing excellent adhesion to iron and aluminum.
- When paired with a phosphating primer, it improves moisture and salt spray resistance.
Typical Coating System
Typical epoxy system: epoxy primer, optional epoxy intermediate coat, and polyurethane or fluorocarbon topcoat when exterior color and weather resistance are required.

| Application Method | 1. Surface Preparation: For steel with mill scale: Sandblast to Sa2.5 grade (or use pickling to completely remove scale and rust). For steel without mill scale: Grind with an elastic grinding wheel to St3 grade. For steel coated with shop primer: Perform secondary rust removal on damaged and rusted areas of the paint film, grinding to St3 grade. 2. Application Conditions The substrate temperature must be at least 3°C higher than the dew point. The relative humidity should not exceed 85%. 3. Coating Method Thinner: Epoxy ester thinner (for airless spraying) Epoxy thinner (for air spraying) Dilution rate: 0 - 15% Nozzle diameter: 0.4 - 0.5mm (airless spraying) 2.0 - 3.0mm (air spraying) Spraying pressure: 12 - 15 MPa (≈ 120 - 150 kg/cm²) for airless spraying 0.3 - 0.4 MPa (≈ 3 - 4 kg/cm²) for air spraying Cleaner: Epoxy thinner 4. Recommended Coating Passes Two passes, achieving a dry film thickness of 80µm. 5. Coating Interval Minimum interval: 36 hours at 5°C 24 hours at 20°C 16 hours at 30°C Maximum interval: No limit. 6. Compatible Topcoats: Various alkyd topcoats; Amino baking paints |

Confirm substrate, exposure environment, required durability, compatible primer or topcoat, and destination-market documentation before quotation or shipment.
What should be checked before applying Epoxy Ester Iron Red Primer?
Check surface cleanliness, surface profile, ambient temperature, substrate temperature, dew point, and relative humidity before application. Stir thoroughly before use.
How should Epoxy Ester Iron Red Primer be stored and handled?
Store sealed containers in a cool, dry, ventilated area away from heat, sparks, and direct sunlight. Follow the current SDS for PPE, ventilation, fire prevention, and waste disposal.
What should be checked before applying Epoxy Ester Iron Red Primer?
Confirm substrate cleanliness, surface profile, dew point, ambient temperature, humidity, and compatibility with the primer or topcoat in the coating system.
How should Epoxy Ester Iron Red Primer be mixed and applied?
Stir thoroughly before use. For multi-component products, mix base and curing agent according to the current TDS, observe induction time and pot life, and only thin with the recommended thinner.
How should unopened Epoxy Ester Iron Red Primer be stored?
Store in sealed original containers in a cool, dry, ventilated place away from heat, sparks, and direct sunlight. Confirm shelf life and packaging with the current TDS/SDS before shipment.
What safety precautions are required during application?
