Overview
Title:  Metal-Rich Primer
Scope:  This specification governs the performance of metal-rich primers used in corrosion
protection of abrasive blasted steel substrates. These primers use metallic and/or metal-rich
particles that make up part of the pigment content to provide sacrificial cathodic protection to
abrasive blasted steel substrates. The primers are lead and chromate free and meet air pollution
requirements for solvent emissions. The metal-rich primers are compatible with the epoxy
primers and topcoats that are used in the Chemical Agent Resistant Coating (CARC) System and
those used for aviation ground support equipment (see 6.1 for intended use).
