Teamac Zinc Rich Primer P219 is an essential coating for metalworkers and contractors looking to protect iron and steel surfaces from corrosion. Featuring a high concentration of metallic zinc, it provides sacrificial cathodic protection, effectively acting as a form of cold galvanising to extend the lifespan of metal assets. A key caveat for users is that the primer must be applied in direct, intimate contact with the bare metal substrate to function properly, meaning it cannot be applied over old paint or rusted surfaces without thorough surface preparation.

Yes, the high metallic zinc content ensures the dried film remains conductive.
This product is specifically designed for iron and steel. It is not recommended for aluminium or non-ferrous metals.
The surface must be clean, dry, and free of any rust, scale, grease, or contaminants. Ideally, blast-clean or wire-brush to a bright metal finish.
Ensure the surface was completely cleaned of oils and loose contaminants prior to application.
This often occurs if the primer was applied over old rust or paint; re-strip the area to bare metal and re-apply.
