| Typically,
a 5.0 to 6.0 mil DFT will provide excellent protection.
If hide is not a factor, primer thickness can often
be increased with corresponding decrease in the topcoat
(thus saving money). Deep, bright red, yellow or blue
colours can be achieved by using Starpoxy ™ High
Build Primer which is available in bright red, yellow
or deep blue. A single topcoat at 1.0 to 1.5 mils DFT
is commonly sufficient if primer is increased accordingly. |
