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.
