The Bartoline Etch Primer is an essential solution for DIYers and professionals looking to prepare difficult metallic surfaces like aluminium, stainless steel, and galvanised steel for painting. It provides superior adhesion and durability, serving as a robust foundation that enhances the performance and finish of your topcoat. While it offers excellent protective qualities for cars, tools, and machinery, users must ensure they have a well-ventilated space for application due to the nature of the aerosol spray.

No, this product is specifically formulated for metallic surfaces like aluminium, stainless steel, and galvanised steel.
You should allow at least 24 hours for the primer to fully harden before applying your chosen topcoat.
It must only be used in a well-ventilated area; outdoor use is highly recommended due to the aerosol fumes.
The primer is designed to provide a smooth finish, but if you require an ultra-flat surface for a high-gloss finish, you may lightly sand it once fully hardened.
No, for optimal adhesion and drying, the temperature must be maintained between 15C and 25C.
Ensure you are inverting the can after use and spraying until clear; if already clogged, soak the nozzle in a compatible solvent.
You are likely holding the can too close or applying too much product at once; increase the distance to 15-25cm and apply lighter coats.
The surface likely still contains grease or oil residue; clean the metal thoroughly with a degreasing agent and re-apply.
Before starting, ensure your workspace is well-ventilated and the ambient temperature is between 15C and 25C. The surface must be perfectly clean; use a degreaser to remove all oil, grease, and dirt, as contaminants will prevent the primer from etching into the metal. Shake the can for two minutes before starting and keep it shaken throughout the process. After your final coat, hold the can upside down and spray for 2-5 seconds to clear the nozzle. Store the product in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the formula.
