Thermoguard Steel Fire Paint Primer is a fast-drying, high-build solvent-based primer for structural steel, offering exceptional corrosion resistance and superior grip to steel, existing primers and gloss finishes. It forms the perfect base layer for Thermocoat WI, WO and S intumescent systems.
Formulated with Zinc Phosphate and Micaceous Iron Oxide, it delivers a tough, attractive metallic finish and is ideal for both internal and partially exposed external steel. Can also be used as a standalone primer finish in two coats under normal exposure or as part of a severe exposure system when overcoated with Thermoguard Flame Retardant Topcoat.
Apply promptly to blast cleaned steel or steel abraded to ST2
May also be applied to sound primers, gloss or eggshell finishes
Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry and sound
Avoid flash-rusting before application
