International’s Primocon is the perfect primer if you want to minimise the time your boat spends out of water. Even at a low temperature of 5C, you can apply multiple coats of the primer in one day.
You can apply the primer with a brush, paint roller or airless spray, although it is only recommended that you use the airless spray if you are a professional. Once complete, your boat will have a matt finish. The primer can be used on a range of materials including steel, zinc, lead, aluminium, fibreglass and plywood.
