Uses

Goes over

  • Bare steel, galvanized and aluminum
  • OEM e-coat and non-reversible OEM or old finishes
  • Body filler, and self-etch, 1K and 2K primers
  • Raw rigid, flexible and soft plastics, and primed plastic parts
Why it works

Primer that builds

  • Fill and build. Transtar calls out superior fill and build.
  • Protects. Helps prevent rust and seals out moisture.
  • Easy sanding. Ready to sand in 15–20 minutes at 70°F.
  • Topcoat ready. Transtar says it's compatible with virtually all automotive paints.
Test before you trust. Transtar says to solvent-test aftermarket e-coat with 6700 reducer in a hidden spot, and to test pre-primed plastic with acetone or thinner. If it fails, strip to bare plastic. Raw plastics may need adhesion promoter.
How to use

Application

  1. Clean with a wax and grease remover, then sand with 240 grit.
