Pettit Paint 751Q Express Prime Activator Quart

The Pettit Paint 751Q Express Prime Activator is a critical component for two-component marine metal primer systems. This quart-sized activator is mixed with compatible Pettit metal primers to create a self-etching wash primer designed for use on bare metal surfaces including steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper, bronze, galvanized steel, cast iron, and lead.

Key Features:

• Essential activator component for two-part marine metal primer systems
• Quart size provides adequate volume for typical marine applications
• Mixed at a ratio of 1 part activator to 4 parts metal primer
• Creates a chemical bond that etches and adheres to bare metal surfaces
• Suitable for above and below waterline applications

Application Guidelines:

• Shake activator bottle thoroughly before use
• Add slowly to metal primer with constant stirring
• Mixed primer and activator should be used within 8 hours for optimal adhesion
• Resulting primer can be applied by brush, roller, or spray

This activator is designed for marine environments and is compatible with Pettit's metal primer systems used on boat hulls, keels, centerboards, and underwater running gear. Once cured, the primed surface can be top-coated with epoxy primers, tie-coat primers, topside enamels, or antifouling paints.
