Good corrosion resistance when applied to metals, especially aluminium and alloys.
Due to the variations in quality and nature of substrates, and in processing techniques, it is always advisable to carry out process compatibility trials prior to production commencement. This is especially pertinent when using ST3000 Chromate Free 2K Etch Primer, compared to chromate containing products.
