Hempel Light Primer is a durable 2-component epoxy primer for boats, supplied as a complete primer kit with base and curing agent. The primer is developed for effective priming and protection of surfaces both above and below the waterline and is suitable for new applications, maintenance, and repairs.
The cured epoxy primer forms a robust and waterproof barrier that reduces the risk of water ingress. On fiberglass and fiberglass hulls, Hempel Light Primer can be used as part of a protective treatment against osmosis, while on steel and aluminium it provides effective protection against corrosion.
Hempel Light Primer can be used on fiberglass, steel, aluminium, and plywood and provides a strong surface with good adhesion for subsequent treatments. It is therefore suitable as a primer before antifouling as well as for building complete paint systems on the boat.
The primer can also be used as a pre-treatment before Hempel Silic One Tiecoat and thus be part of the Hempel Silic One system.
Hempel Light Primer is biocide-free and a versatile choice for boat owners who want a durable epoxy primer with high resistance to water and corrosion.
