Contego Rustex 710 Metal Primer

This high solids, low VOC phenolic alkyd metal primer is designed to provide long-lasting corrosion protection for steel and metal substrates. The coating offers strong adhesion, surface hardness, and durability while delivering corrosion resistance exceeding 1,000 hours of cyclic testing in accordance with ASTM D5894 Salt Fog/UV Exposure methods. Its formulation supports economical application at low film builds while also allowing higher film thickness to effectively cover aggressive surface profiles, even under challenging environmental conditions.

Features and benefits :

• High Solids Formulation – Enables efficient coverage and reduced material consumption.
• Low VOC Content – Compliant with environmental regulations for non-shop applications.
• Excellent Corrosion Resistance – Surpasses 1,000 hours of ASTM D5894 cyclic corrosion testing.
• Strong Adhesion and Hardness – Enhances coating durability and long-term performance.
• Flexible Film Build Capability – Effective at both low and high film thicknesses.
• Fast Drying Properties – Supports quicker turnaround times during application.
• Low Temperature Curing – Suitable for use in cold and winter conditions.
• Standards Compliance – Meets CISC/CPMA STD. 1-73A and MPI 76 requirements.
