Primer Spray used for pre-treatment of Aluminium surfaces to create a neutral surface which offers the greatest adhesion and protection to apply further paint coatings onto. Provides the longest possible lifespan and most aesthetic finish for further coatings of top paint layers and compensates for extension of Aluminum under the influence of heat.

- Primes & improves adhesion on the top coat

- Limited/ conditionally suitable for copper & zinc

- Weatherproof

Shake can vigorously for 2-3 minutes before use. Apply ALUMINIUM PRIMER in several thin layers, spraying in sweeping motions. Allow each coating to dry for at least 5 minutes. Can be overpainted after 3 hours. Further coats of alternative products might require a drying time of 24 hours or more depending on application style. Always test spray on a non-visible area to check the compatibility of lacquer or paint. For optimal lifespan, store cans with the nozzle on.
​

When should I use a primer?

The goal of priming is to create a neutral surface to provide the longest possible lifespan and the most aesthetic finish for further coatings. Montana-Cans Primers are for pre-treatment and preparation of surfaces and will offer the greatest adhesion and protection to apply further coatings onto.

How will using Montana ALUMINIUM PRIMER assist me?

Using Montana ALUMINIUM PRIMER will create the best possible surface for adhesion of further coatings on aluminum to help resist and prevent the onset flaking and cracking. Using the ALUMINIUM PRIMER will also enhance scratch resistance of further applied layers.

When do I use Montana ALUMINIUM PRIMER?

Montana ALUMINIUM PRIMER is specifically created for the pre-treatment of aluminium and in some cases copper and zinc. Surfaces need to be clean, dry and free of all dust and oils before application. We suggest testing on a non-visible area of your material to check for compatibility.

How do I start using my Montana ALUMINIUM PRIMER?

Remove the nozzle and turn the can upside down. Strike with your palm to allow the safety ring to fall out. Shake vigorously for 2-3 minutes with mixing balls moving freely. Place nozzle back on the valve and test spray.

Which coatings can apply over the ALUMINIUM PRIMER?

You can apply any Montana-Cans color, tech or effect spray on primed surfaces after fully curing.

How long does Montana-Cans ALUMINIUM PRIMER take to dry?

Complete drying time is usually 2-4 hours, however re-coating is possible after approx. 5 minutes.

Can I use other paints, materials & application forms on primed surfaces?

It is possible to combine other materials & Montana-Cans ALUMINIUM PRIMER – However, we suggest to always test for compatibility on a non-visible area.
