U-POL #8 Acid Etch Primer is a fast-drying 1K primer designed to promote excellent paint adhesion to difficult metal surfaces, including galvanised steel and aluminium. Its acid-etching formula helps prepare bare metal for painting while providing anti-corrosive protection to help prevent steel from rusting.
Ideal for automotive refinishing, bodyshop repairs and bare metal preparation, U-POL #8 is particularly useful for treating areas where the existing primer has been rubbed through before applying colour. It provides a smooth finish and can normally be overpainted directly without sanding.
