Tremlite <strong>Metal</strong> <strong>Primer</strong> <strong>WB</strong><br />
A Water Based Acrylic <strong>Primer</strong><br />
for <strong>Metal</strong> Surfaces<br />
Composition: Tremlite <strong>Metal</strong> <strong>Primer</strong> <strong>WB</strong> is a<br />
waterbased, acrylic metal primer which provides<br />
a tough, flexible film for the protection of<br />
steel against corrosion. Tremlite <strong>Metal</strong> <strong>Primer</strong><br />
<strong>WB</strong> is asbestos free and VOC compliant.<br />
Basic Uses: Tremlite <strong>Metal</strong> <strong>Primer</strong> <strong>WB</strong> is<br />
designed for use on rusted surfaces as a component<br />
of the Tremlite <strong>Metal</strong> Roof Coating<br />
System. Tremlite <strong>Metal</strong> <strong>Primer</strong> <strong>WB</strong> is spot<br />
applied to rusted areas after surface preparation.<br />
Tremlite <strong>Metal</strong> <strong>Primer</strong> <strong>WB</strong> can also be<br />
applied in a full coat primer application for<br />
metal surfaces.<br />
Limitations:<br />
• Surface must be free of loose rust, coatings,<br />
dirt, oils and other contaminants which<br />
would inhibit good adhesion.<br />
• Application temperature must be 50° F and<br />
rising. Do not apply when rain is imminent.<br />
• Not recommended for immersion service in<br />
water, acids, alkalies, or solvents.<br />
• Not intended for use over Kynar or other<br />
PVDF resin coatings.<br />
Features<br />
Spot application over<br />
corrosion<br />
Excellent adhesion to<br />
most metals & generic<br />
coatings<br />
Product Advantages<br />
Benefits<br />
• Reduces labor costs<br />
• Easy to use<br />
• No concern over<br />
paint performance due<br />
to unknown existing<br />
surface<br />
Trial Area: Your <strong>Tremco</strong> Representative may<br />
suggest a trial area which will allow you to evaluate<br />
one or more <strong>Tremco</strong> systems under actual<br />
field conditions.<br />
Grade: Spray/brush/roll.<br />
Packaging: Available in 5 gallon units.<br />
Color: Gray<br />
Storage Life: One Year.<br />
EQUIPMENT<br />
Airless Spray Equipment: Use a 3/8” minimum<br />
I.D. fluid hose rated for airless operation, Graco<br />
30:1 ratio Bulldog or President pump,or equivalent,<br />
and 0.021” to 0.025” spray tip at 2,400<br />
psi minimum.<br />
APPLICATION DATA<br />
Coating performance is affected by proper<br />
product selection, application, and surface<br />
preparation. Coating integrity and service life<br />
will be reduced because of improperly prepared<br />
surfaces. Proper surface preparation ensures<br />
coating adhesion to the substrate<br />
Surface Preparation: Surface must be sound,<br />
clean, dry and free from dust, oil, chalk, and<br />
other contaminants. Prepare surface using<br />
SSPC-SP2.* Wire brush, scrape, or sand down<br />
rust and loose paint. Power wash metal surface<br />
with high pressure water blast, 2000 minimum<br />
psi. For power washing previously coated surfaces,<br />
use a biodegradable detergent to assist in<br />
cleaning, then rinse the surface with clean<br />
water. New galvanized panels must weather a<br />
minimum 6 months or be treated with phosphoric<br />
acid in order to obtain proper adhesion<br />
to the metal substrate.<br />
Rust inhibitors<br />
• Penetrates, bonds, and<br />
stops existing rust preserving<br />
metal integrity<br />

• Locks out air and mois-<br />

Roofing & Weatherproofing Peace of Mind
Application: Mix each container thoroughly<br />
prior to application. Spot apply Tremlite <strong>Metal</strong><br />
<strong>Primer</strong> <strong>WB</strong> to all rusted areas after proper surface<br />
preparation. If specified, Tremlite <strong>Metal</strong><br />
<strong>Primer</strong> <strong>WB</strong> may be applied to the metal substrate<br />
in a full coat primer application. When<br />
spray applied, take necessary precaution to<br />
avoid overspray. Allow Tremlite <strong>Metal</strong> <strong>Primer</strong><br />
<strong>WB</strong> to fully dry prior to application of surface<br />
coating.<br />
Coverage Rate: Apply in a spot application or<br />
single coat at approximately 5 m 2 /L (200<br />
ft 2 /gal.).<br />
Clean up: Clean equipment immediately with<br />
water.<br />
Precautions: Users must read container labels<br />
