One-Pack - One-Part Inorganic Zinc Rich Primers - How They Can Help Your Business

Another problem with inorganic zinc rich primers with multiple components is you have to use all the material that has been mixed within a certain period of time. For instance, you might mix a four gallon kit, but after completing the paint application you find you have only used two gallons. The remaining material will go bad before you need it again. This can be quite expensive as well because as we know zinc coatings are expensive on a per gallon basis.

Now enters into the industrial painting world the one part / one pack inorganic zinc rich primer. You don't have to worry about mixing the dust or getting the mixture correct, because you have a one-part product that only needs aggressive agitation before application. Even better, this type of product can usually be re-sealed and used at a later date. This alleviates the problem with wasting material, which is of course, very expensive per gallon.

This can be a very profitable move for your business if you go to a one-pack / one-part inorganic zinc rich primer. It will save you money on wasted gallons and possibly future mishaps with mixing. Cross-reference the paint supplier with the product you are using to make sure it will meet the performance levels of your current zinc primer. Another way to check quality is to look at the Master Painter's Institute specification #19 (this number is for an inorganic zinc rich primer).

In any case, take a strong look at moving to this type of product to ease headaches and increase profitability in the long run!
