Primer and Resin Application



Primer and Resin Application

The application of primer and resin is a crucial two-phase process in the coatings industry. The primer, applied as the first layer, enhances the adhesion of the resin to the substrate, ensuring better resistance and durability over time. Subsequently, the resin application provides both aesthetic and functional properties to the coating, such as wear resistance and chemical resistance. Both products must be applied correctly following the technical specifications to achieve optimal results.

Best Resin Application Techniques

The best resin application techniques include thorough surface preparation, the use of suitable tools, and proper product mixing. Particularly, the surface must be clean, dry, and free from dust or dirt. Tools like spatulas or rollers should be appropriate for the type of resin used. Lastly, mixing the resin with the catalyst must be done in accordance with the proportions indicated by the manufacturer to ensure optimal curing.

Guide to Epoxy Resin Primer Usage

Epoxy resin primer is a vital product to ensure perfect adhesion of the resin to the substrate. Before applying the resin, it is necessary to apply a primer layer on the surface to be treated, allowing it to dry for the time specified by the manufacturer. The primer enhances resin adhesion, prevents air bubble formation, and increases the final coating's resistance. Its use is particularly recommended on porous surfaces such as wood to avoid excessive resin absorption.

Tips for Resin Application on Different Materials

Applying resin on different materials requires some precautions. For porous surfaces like wood and concrete, a primer is necessary to avoid air bubbles. On metals, it is essential to ensure that the surface is clean and free from oxidation. Resin adheres well on glass and ceramic, but thorough cleaning to remove grease and dirt is crucial. Lastly, for plastic and silicone rubber, conducting a preliminary adhesion test is recommended to verify resin adhesion.
