Awlgrip has announced its latest technical breakthrough, Controlled Fusion (CF), a unique chemical system that allows extended re-coat times, removes the need for sanding prior to applying the next coat and gives excellent substrate adhesion.

Controlled Fusion technology has been used in the production of Max Cor CF, a chromate-free anti-corrosive direct to metal primer, and also in Wash Primer CF, a chromate-free etch primer suitable for metal substrates such as anodized aluminium and stainless steel parts.

Max Cor CF Primer features and benefits include:-

1.    Chromate-free replacement for 30-Y-94 and Max Cor
2.    Flexible recoat times in comparison to the out-going 30-Y-94 and Max Cor
3.    Overcoating interval of up to 72 hours without sanding allows for better application scheduling and less work
4.    Provides maximum corrosion protection when overcoated with Hullgard Extra
5.    Major reduced work time for the scheme when used in conjunction with Hullgard Extra – Both primers do not require sanding before overcoating reducing labour costs and time
6.    A low Volatile Organic Compound formula improving environmental emissions
7.    Also available as a 250ml 2-pack aerosol, complete with adjustable spray nozzle producing a spray-gun effect.
