Alclad II Primers
Alclad II Primers are formulated to create smooth, durable base coats that maximize adhesion and surface quality for Alclad II lacquer paints. Proper priming is essential for achieving realistic metallic finishes, especially when working with High Shine and specialty effects.
These primers help eliminate surface imperfections, improve paint grip, and create a consistent foundation for subsequent layers. When applied correctly, they enhance color uniformity and allow metallic and effect paints to perform at their best.
Why proper priming matters
