Pinaka QD ZCR Primer 1440
Pinaka QD ZCR Primer 1440 is a fast-drying, high-performance zinc chromate primer engineered to deliver superior corrosion resistance on metal substrates. Its modified alkyd formulation provides dual protection through zinc ions and chromic acid ion passivation, making it significantly more effective than conventional red oxide primers. Designed for environments prone to humidity, oxidation, and early-stage rusting, it ensures strong adhesion and forms a stable base for synthetic and industrial topcoats. The primer supports quick recoating cycles, making it ideal for maintenance and fabrication settings requiring speed and durability.
Available Packs: 1L, 4L, 20L
