Description
Product Overview
Hammerite Red Oxide Primer is a rust inhibiting metal primer designed to prepare steel and iron surfaces before painting. It helps improve paint adhesion while providing a protective anti corrosion base coat for longer lasting results. Ideal for interior and exterior metalwork where a dependable undercoat is essential.
Key Features
- Rust inhibiting primer – helps slow down corrosion and protects metal surfaces before topcoating.
- Improves adhesion – creates a reliable key for your topcoat, helping reduce peeling and flaking.
- Ideal base coat for metalwork – suited to common steel and iron jobs such as gates, railings and posts.
- Red oxide finish – traditional red oxide colour makes coverage easy to see while you work.
Use Case / Application
Designed for priming ferrous metals (such as steel and iron) prior to painting, especially where rust protection is required. Suitable for DIY and trade maintenance tasks including:
- Outdoor metalwork: gates, railings, fences, shed hardware and brackets
- Garage and workshop projects: tools storage stands, metal frames and fabricated steelwork
- Home improvement: internal metal supports, pipes and metal trims (where a primer coat is required)
For best results, remove loose rust and debris, clean the surface, then apply the primer before your chosen metal topcoat.
