Carboxide Red Oxide Primer is a traditional (lead free) solvent based, air drying primer. It creates a smooth, protective surface to your metal. This means it is easy for you apply your top coat without too much sanding. Use it on ferrous metal surfaces. With its rust inhibiting properties and because it is touch dry in 3 hours, Carboxide red oxide primer is a great, practical choice for steel and iron surfaces. Make sure the paint cures sufficiently before applying a top coat; see the technical information above for more detail on this.
Carboxide red oxide primer is lead free and replaces the traditional ‘red lead’ with all the same protective qualities. Red lead while not actually banned is harmful to health and our red oxide is a much safer alternative. If you’re concerned about working with painted surfaces that may contain lead, refer to this guide from the British Coatings Federation
Apply by brush, roller or conventional or airless spray. If painting non ferrous or galvanised metal, use Mordant Solution or Etching Primer. If you’re unsure about which primer to use, try our online chat or drop us an email: sales@palatinepaints.co.uk.
Also available in Black and Grey.
