What do we know about metal paint?

The answer is: a lot.

We started out as contractors to the offshore oil-industry, spray-painting the North Sea rigs. We went on to develop a hard-wearing coating suitable for use in cold and harsh environments and later sold this formulation to Crown Paints. Industrial Protective Paints Ltd was born. Over the last 30 years the business has grown as we formulate and manufacture a wide range of protective metal-coatings. Here on our dedicated Metal Paints page, we share our knowledge with you to help you to choose the products most suitable for your project.

WHAT IS "TWO-PACK" EPOXY METAL PAINT?

Two-Pack Epoxy Metal Paint is our most hard-wearing metal paint. Here, ‘Two-Pack’ refers to the fact that there are two items per pack. If you order a Regal Two-Pack Epoxy Metal Paint, your order will come to you in two cans: the pigmented resin (in the larger can) and the epoxy activator (in the smaller can). To use, you will need to pour the activator (the smaller can) into the pigmented resin (the larger can). You will also need to thoroughly and gently mix the two parts together before the paint can be used.

What makes a good metal paint?

What Makes a Good Metal Paint?

Protection is key. There are many metal coatings out there in the market and we understand that you need products that will perform. As with floor paint, the end product is only as good as the quality, quantities and combination of the raw materials that are used. We source and use raw ingredients from world-respected market leaders. Our metal primers contain high-quality phosphates and pigments to protect against corrosion and are designed to cross-link with the appropriate topcoats to give maximum protection.

The importance of using a metal primer

Why do I need to use a metal primer?

The use of a primer coat is always recommended when painting or spraying metal. The primer coat will penetrate the metal and the top-coat paint will penetrate the primer coat, creating a cross-link and longevity of coating.  The metal primer also has the additional benefit of containing calcium phosphate which helps to prevent corrosion.

You have three different metal primers: what is the difference between them?

Our metal primers fall into two categories: Single-Pack and Two-Pack.  Regal Single-Pack Metal Primers are the Anticorrosive Quick Dry Primer and the Highbuild Phosphate Quickdry Primer.

Both are based on xylene and are suitable for spray application. The main difference between the two products is that the Highbuild Phosphate Quick Dry Primer contains a higher level of calcium phosphate to give superior protection against corrosion. Both of the single-pack primers are suitable for use with any of the single-pack metal topcoats.

Regal Two-Pack Epoxy Metal Primer is only suitable for use with our Two-Pack Epoxy Metal Topcoat. The epoxy metal-paint system is our most hardwearing coating.

Metal preparation help and advice

How do I prepare a metal surface for painting?

Can I paint over rusty metal?

No. The rust will always appear again unless you treat it prior to painting. There are industry standards for blast-cleaning corroded steel, but in general you will need to blast the rust away

What is mordent solution and do you sell it?

Sorry, we do not sell mordent solution. Mordent solution neutralises aluminium and galvanised steel before paint is applied. It works by drawing the salt out of galvanised steel. Galvanised steel forms a salt soap which will cause the paint to peel away from the metal. 

Can I paint galvanised steel?

Yes, you can paint galvanised steel. However, if using our Regal Metal Paints you will need to prepare the steel first. In painting untreated galvanised steel you run the risk of the paint delaminating with time.

Why does metal paint peel?

This is usually due to painting un-treated galvanised steel.
