Product Details

RUST-PROOFING PRIMER IN RED – 2025 NEW FORMULA 3:1 MIX RATIO

PRODUCT COLOUR: OXIDE RED

Rustbuster Custom Epoxy Primer serves as the ideal base for priming steel, aluminium, and GRP bodywork. It resists moisture absorption, preventing rust from forming within the primer, even when exposed for long periods. Unlike soft, porous easy-sand primers, Custom Epoxy primer provides durable protection, making it perfect for home auto restorers and garages without a controlled body shop environment.

After a light sanding with P320 abrasive, you can easily over-paint Custom Epoxy Primer with either single-pack cellulose or two-pack finishes.

Product description 2 pack modified epoxy rust-proofing primer.
Pack description The 1.25L kit covers approximately 10m² and includes 750ml of Component A, 250ml of Component B, and 250ml of thinner.

The 2.5L kit covers approximately 20m² and includes 1.5L of Component A, 500ml of Component B, and 500ml of thinner.

The 5L kit covers approximately 40m² and includes 3L of Component A, 1L of Component B, and 1L of thinner.

Application temperature Can be applied to steel as low as 5c. The steel must be at least 3 degrees above the current dew point. (See our dew point calculator.)
Thinning Use only the epoxy thinner supplied, from 5 to 20% max.
Application & recoating

You can apply Custom Epoxy by brush or spray. A second coat or topcoat can be added after approximately 8 hours* without the need for abrasion between coats. If recoating or applying a topcoat after the first coat has fully cured (about 7 days), lightly sand the surface with P320 paper.

*At 20°C. In colder conditions, longer drying times may be necessary.

Spraying Minimum 1.8mm nozzle or an HB (high build) primer set up. Test atomisation on a test panel first. Viscosity will vary, i.e. thicker in colder temperatures. Data correct at 20c.

Conventional Spray (Air) 3-4bar – 44-58psi

Airless Spray 18thou tip, 150 bar – 2176psi

Pot life

Pot life is the time between mixing the two components and when the paint becomes unusable. For Custom Epoxy, the pot life is 2.5 hours at 20°C.

In colder temperatures, the pot life increases, allowing you more time to apply the mixed paint.

Shelf life It is advised to store the product upside down in a dry location at approximately 20°C. Under these conditions, the product will have a shelf life of up to 12 months.

Please avoid storing it at temperatures below 20°C, as it may impact the product’s performance.

Disposal Allow any excess mixed paint to cure in your mixing cup and be thrown away as dry waste.
Cleaning Clean the equipment with standard thinner or gun wash. Avoid using standard thinner to thin the paint, as it can adversely affect the curing process.1
Safety Ensure usage in a well-ventilated area. When spraying or brushing in an enclosed space, wear a respirator mask. Refer to the MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) in our data sheet section for more information.

Always wear appropriate protective clothing, gloves, and eye protection.
