Alesta® ZeroZinc

Primers


Corrosion of steel leads to high repair and maintenance costs. Surface pre-treatment and use of the most appropriate anti-corrosion system will extend the life of the painted structure. After more than 10 years of research and development, the Alesta® ZeroZinc range of products is expanding to provide the best solution for every substrate. There is a ZeroZinc primer for each substrate to be coated: steel, parts with sharp edges, degassing substrates (galvanised steel and metallisation)

Alesta® ZeroZinc Steel Prime
especially suitable for heavy ferrous metal parts.

Alesta® ZeroZinc Edge Prime
for parts with sharp edges, thanks to its specific viscosity profile. Dedicated colours are available for general industry and the automotive market.

Alesta® ZeroZinc Antigassing Prime
for substrates prone to outgassing such as galvanised steel and metallised steel.

Alesta® ZeroZinc Antigassing Reactive
specially designed for thick parts and substrates prone to outgassing such as galvanised steel and metallised steel.

Alesta® ZeroZinc Uniprime
The universal primer - entirely safe
