In the world of painting, we are often faced with the challenge of choosing the right paint for various types of surfaces, such as wood and iron. EMCO Primer Wood & Metal, one of Mataram Paint’s leading products, offers an innovative solution: paint specifically designed for these two types of materials. What makes it unique, and why should you choose it?
The main advantage of this paint is its flexibility. Its special formula allows it to deliver maximum results on both wood and iron. This is possible because EMCO is alkyd-based, a key ingredient known for its versatility and suitability for various substrates.
On wood, this paint effectively fills pores and reduces the movement of the wood caused by shrinkage and expansion. This provides several benefits: it is more durable, less prone to cracking, and creates a smoother, more even surface that is ready for a top coat. Meanwhile, on iron, EMCO paint protects against corrosion, extends the material’s lifespan, and maintains its prime appearance. These advantages make it a practical solution for those looking for a versatile paint without needing to purchase separate products for each surface type.
One of the secrets to EMCO paint’s excellence is the use of high-quality alkyd resin. This resin provides bright, even, and long-lasting colors, even when exposed to sunlight and extreme weather. Alkyd-based paint layers are highly resistant to peeling, fading, and cracking, ensuring the final result looks like new for an extended period.
Unique Alkyd Primer Function: Reduces Pore Movement and Prevents Corrosion
EMCO primer paint for wood and iron is a product designed with cutting-edge technology to provide maximum protection and a perfect finish on various surfaces. Its special formula ensures superior performance in terms of coverage, adhesion, and resistance to environmental factors. Some of its main advantages include:
- Reduces Wood Pore Movement:
Wood is naturally porous, so regular paint often fails to cover it perfectly. EMCO primer effectively fills these pores, creating a smooth surface ideal for applying the main paint - Prevents Corrosion on Iron:
Iron is prone to rust if not coated with the right primer. EMCO creates a strong barrier layer on iron surfaces, effectively preventing corrosion. This can be seen in the results of the rust resistance test using the Salt Spray Test method, as shown in the image below:
- Excellent Coverage and Adhesion:
EMCO paint adheres strongly to both wood and iron substrates, providing a perfect and durable finish
