Teamac Metaclor Antifouling Primer
Teamac Metaclor Antifouling Primer is a high-performance, single-component primer formulated with chlorinated rubber for optimal durability and adhesion. This versatile primer is specifically designed to provide superior protection against corrosion and fouling on various substrates, including wood, metal, and GRP. Its unique formulation, which includes Zinc Phosphate, offers additional corrosion resistance, making it particularly effective when applied to steel surfaces.

Application & Uses
Metaclor Antifouling Primer is suitable for a wide range of marine and industrial applications. It is ideal for priming narrowboats, cruisers, barges, yachts, and various marine structures. The primer can be used as an underwater base coat on properly prepared steel or as a sealer coat over most conventional paint systems.

Recommended for use on wood, metal, and GRP surfaces.
Best applied over blast-cleaned or mechanically prepared steel to achieve maximum adhesion and longevity.
Can be top-coated with Teamac Antifouling paints or as part of a comprehensive anti-corrosive system.

Application Instructions
For best results, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease, oil, or other contaminants. Blast cleaning to SA 2½ is recommended for steel surfaces; however, mechanical cleaning can be employed if blast cleaning is not possible. Apply to a small test area first to check compatibility, especially over existing coatings.

Mix well before use to ensure an even consistency.
Apply by brush, roller, or airless spray, following recommended drying times between coats.
Always allow a minimum of 8 hours between coats for optimal curing.

Limitations & Precautions
Metaclor Antifouling Primer should not be used on surfaces that have not been properly prepared, as this may affect adhesion and performance. Avoid applying in high humidity or low temperatures, as this can slow drying and curing times. Always follow safety guidelines, including wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), and ensure adequate ventilation during application.

Do not use on unprepared surfaces.
Avoid application in conditions of high humidity or low temperature.
Not suitable for use in confined spaces without adequate ventilation.
