Luxaprime 1501 is a two-component, etching primer based on polyvinyl butyral resin, phosphoric acid, and zinc chromate pigments. It is designed to etch and promote adhesion on non-ferrous substrates prior to topcoating. The primer dries quickly, can be overcoated within 3 months, and provides excellent intercoat adhesion. It is recommended for use on galvanized iron, aluminum, zinc, and copper through conventional spray application.

LUXAPRIME 1501 REVISION 06- JULY 2017
H6 BERGER PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS SURFACE The service life span and the service performance of LUXAPRIME 1501 are directly related to the degree of surface preparation. PREPARATION NON FERROUS METALS Remove all wax, oil and grease by solvent cleaning in accordance with the guidelines given by SSPC-SP1. A wet abrasion using SOLVALUX 5-30 and abrasive paper will improve subsequent adhesion and ensure removal of surface contaminants. The surface to be coated must also be clean and dry. GALVANISED STEEL OR ZINC METAL SPRAY Ensure that white zinc salts and other surface contaminants are removed by abrading with abrasive paper or suitable mechanical tools. Remove all wax, oil and grease by solvent cleaning in accordance with the guidelines given by SSPC-SP1. The surface to be coated must be clean and dry. To avoid condensation of moisture onto substrate prior to coating application, relative humidity should not exceed 85% and substrate temperature should be more than 3C above Dew Point.
SUITABLE FINISH Luxol 1000, Epilux 610, Epilux 78, Epilux 685, Epilux 218, Epilux 58HS, Epimastic 3000HS, COATS Luxol 5000, Luxathane 5075, Luxathane 5150HS, Luxathane 5000 HB, Epilux 4, Epimastic 3100 NOTES The coating specifications given above are typical. For specific recommendations to suit individual applications, please refer to your Berger Paints representative. Do not over-apply. Do not exceed 20m. Over-application may lead to loss of adhesion. Do not apply after the pot-life has expired although the paint still appears liquid. This product is not designed to confer opacity on the substrate.
