NanoPrime: The Ultimate Rust-Converting, Eco-Friendly Primer
NanoPrime is a revolutionary water-based primer with a patented formula that dramatically reduces surface preparation time while delivering a superior bonding base for all topcoats. Unlike traditional primers, NanoPrime is non-toxic, non-flammable, and contains zero VOCs (volatile organic compounds), making it a safe and environmentally friendly solution for industrial, commercial, and residential applications.
What sets NanoPrime apart is its advanced rust-converting technology. It transforms rust into iron phosphate and oxidized aluminum into aluminum phosphate, creating a chemically stable and paint-ready surface. This unique chemical transformation enhances corrosion resistance and eliminates the need for abrasive blasting or harsh chemical cleaners.
There is no other primer on the market that combines rust conversion, green chemistry, and exceptional topcoat adhesion like NanoPrime. Whether you're painting steel, aluminum, or other metal surfaces, NanoPrime is the most effective and sustainable primer solution available.
Coatings typically rely on a mechanical bond for adhesion, and this means roughing the surface to provide a surface profile. NANOPRIME’s patented formulation chemically bonds to new steel and this eliminates the need to sand or grit blast. NANOPRIME only requires a clean, oil-free surface typically achieved by pressure washing. Any rust that remains is no problem. The phosphates in NANOPRIME’s formulation chemically react with existing rust to create iron phosphate that is a corrosion resistant compound.
NANOPRIME only requires a clean, oil-free surface typically achieved by pressure washing. What loose, flaky rust that remains can be removed by wire brush or power tool. NANOPRIME will chemically bond with existing paint that remained after pressure washing. Any light or heavy rust that remains is no problem. The phosphates in NANOPRIME’s formulation chemically react with existing rust to create iron phosphate that is a corrosion resistant compound.
Surface preparation to coat new and oxidized aluminum typically requires aluminum to be chemically etched. NANOPRIME’s patented formulation chemically bonds to new and oxidized aluminum and this eliminates the need etch the surface with hazardous acids. NANOPRIME only requires a clean, oil-free surface typically achieved by pressure washing.
Light and heavy rust on corroded galvanized steel is no problem for NANOPRIME. The phosphates in NANOPRIME’s formulation chemically react with existing rust to create iron phosphate that is a corrosion resistant compound.
NANOPRIME’s patented formulation chemically bonds to cured concrete that creates a high adhesive bond even for smooth concrete surfaces. This then provides a solid base for compatible topcoats on floors and high traffic areas.
NANOPRIME’s patented phosphate water-based formulation allows the coating to be applied in humid conditions. The substrate can also be damp. And for salt air environments such as offshore oil structures, coastal houses and facilities, the presence of salt has no adverse effect on NANOPRIME’s adhesion and performance.
NANOPRIME can be spilled in the water or in the grass and has no VOCs to go into the air. The phosphate water-based formulation is biodegradable and because of the phosphate, will even make the grass grow.
NANOPRIME has no toxic fumes, VOCs that can be inhaled and are safe to use by the applicator. Because NANOPRIME is water-based and non-hazardous, the coating is non-flammable and can be stored with no risk of fire. And transporting the coating requires no special consideration and markings on the packaging.
