What is a Weltlack primer?
A Weltlack primer is a type of primer used in the automotive industry to prepare the bodywork surface prior to the application of the final paint. It is designed to create a uniform, smooth surface and improve adhesion of the final paintwork, as well as protecting the bodywork from corrosion, UV rays and the elements.
There are different types, such as acrylic primers, epoxy primers and polyester-based primers. The choice of primer depends on the type of bodywork and paint you are going to use, as well as the conditions of application.
What is Weltlack primer used for?
Dedicated to bodybuilders, Weltlack primer is a coating product used in the automotive industry for a number of purposes:
1- Improving paint adhesion
It creates a uniform, smooth surface, which improves the adhesion of the paint to the bodywork. This prevents the final paintwork from peeling.
2- Protection against corrosion
The use of Weltlack primer protects bodywork against corrosion, UV rays and bad weather. This extends their life and keeps them in good condition.
3- Improving the quality of the finish
Weltlack primer is an automotive coating product that masks minor imperfections on bodywork surfaces, such as scratches or dents. This improves the quality of the paint finish.
What are the different types of Weltlack primer?
There are several types of Weltlack primer on the automotive market. Each has its own characteristics and its own specific application approach.
Here are the types of Weltlack primer most commonly used by bodywork professionals:
1- Acrylic primer
This is a water-based Weltlack primer. This product is easy to apply and dries quickly. It can be sanded very easily and is suitable for all types of bodywork.
2- Epoxy primer
This Weltlack primer is a type of automotive primer based on epoxy resin. It is highly resistant to corrosion, water, chemicals and the elements. It is suitable for bodywork in bare metal, aluminium or stainless steel.
3- Polyester primer
This is a Weltlack primer based on polyester resin. It is highly resistant to corrosion, water and the elements. This primer is often used for fibreglass bodywork repairs.
4- High solids primer
This bodywork primer is resin-based. It contains a high proportion of solid particles, giving better coverage than traditional primers. It is often used to repair damaged bodywork and requires a longer flash time than other types of primer.
It's important to choose the right type of Weltlack primer for the specific needs of the bodywork you want to repair and the conditions of application.
How can I use Weltlack primer?
Weltlack primer is very easy to use. Here are the steps to follow:
- Make sure the surface is clean, dry and free of rust, grease and dirt before applying the product
- Repair imperfections on the bodywork, such as scratches or dents
- Apply the primer in thin, even coats using a basecoat spraygun (the distance between the spraygun and the surface should be approximately 15 to 20 cm)
- Make sure the layers are thin enough to avoid drips and air bubbles
- Leave each layer to dry for a good while (read the manufacturer's instructions for drying times)
- Once the primer is dry, sand the surface with fine abrasive paper to remove any irregularities (sand gently to avoid damaging the primer)
- Clean and dust the surface before applying the final coat of paint
- Once the surface is sanded and clean, apply the final paint using a basecoat spraygun (follow the manufacturer's instructions to apply the final paint correctly)
To reap the full benefits of this product, it is essential to follow the recommended steps for use, including cleaning, repair, application and sanding. As a result, you'll enjoy a professional, long-lasting result for your vehicle.
