MTN Pro: A Line of Products You Can Trust for Anti-Corrosion Treatment Projects

Anyone who’s ever worked with bare, or unprotected metal knows that rust is more than just an unsightly surface covering: it’s a chemical bonding process which, once it starts, is virtually impossible to stop. The fact is, whether it’s in a vein of iron ore running through a mine, or covering a treasured article of wrought iron garden furniture, oxidation, in the form of rust, is not only one of the most commonly occurring natural compounds on the planet, it’s also one of the most destructive.

While surface rust’s general unattractiveness is all but unavoidable, it’s the compound’s penchant for compromising the structural integrity of iron-based items that it’s most notorious for, especially when you’re working with delicate metal forgings. That’s why when you’re working with iron-based metals, you need to be able to protect them from unwanted oxidation. Fortunately, you can get all the rust protection you need in a can.

Smooth Corrosion Protection with MTN PRO Corrosion Inhibitors

Make no mistake: it doesn’t matter if you’re building an iron-framed desk for your office, or are in the process of restoring an antique iron statue – applying a protective coating to your project is the key to stopping rust. This is where a heavy-duty anti corrosion primer like one of Montana Colors’ MTN PRO spray inhibitors can come to your rescue.

The MTN PRO family of primers and converters are created by combining Montana’s special acrylic-bound resins with corrosion inhibitors, rust neutralisers, and pigments to form a range of rust blocking and encapsulation layers that topcoats adhere to perfectly. These components are especially beneficial for MTN PRO’s Anti Rust Primer blend though, as this premium grade inhibitor boasts a variety of application characteristics, that include:

• A choice of grey or red zinc phosphate pigmentation;
• Superior elasticity and adhesion to oxidised surfaces; and,
• High temperature corrosion resistance to 160°C.

With a dry-to-touch time of 10 minutes, dry to re-coat time of 15 minutes, and a completely dry time of 30 minutes, a 400ml can of MTN PRO Anti Rust Primer spray offers smooth, uniform coverage over an area of 2.5m/sq. That makes it the most effective anti-corrosion primer spray for any steel, or cast or wrought iron project that would otherwise need hours of post-application sanding and surface preparation.

MTN PRO Anti Corrosion Primer is the Perfect Pre-treatment Against Unwanted Corrosion

Because fine-finishing MTN PRO Anti Rust Primer paint cuts down on the amount of time and effort you need to put into prepping for a high-quality finish, it’s the perfect pre-treatment coating for projects where aesthetics are just as important as corrosion resistance, including:

• Delicate, and detailed automotive parts and accessories;
• Industrial, and services equipment; and,
• Home, hobby, and garden projects.

What’s important to remember about MTN PRO’s flagship anti rust primer spray paint, is that it’s a genuine anti corrosion pre-treatment. While rust (the oxidation of iron whenever it’s exposed to air and moisture) is easily the most common type of corrosion, corrosion itself constitutes any type of material deterioration that’s caused by a chemical reaction. All metals corrode, and some metals will even corrode when exposed to other metals; this makes MTN PRO primer spray a valuable pre-treatment protectorant for a wide array of alloys other than iron, including:

• Zinc;
• Bronze;
• Copper;
• Aluminium; and,
• Stainless, and galvanised steel.

Not all causes, rates, or even consequences of corrosion are the same though, with the oxidised surface layers of aluminium and copper actually forming their own protective patinated layer that blocks oxidation from going deeper. What’s generally true, however, is that with few exceptions, no one actually wants to see corrosion. That’s where the full range of MTN PRO primers, inhibitors, and coatings are able to help you turn the page on all forms of offensive oxidation.

MTN PRO Offers Anti-Corrosion Primers for all Surfaces

While MTN PRO’s basic anti rust/anti-corrosion primer is their most versatile corrosion fighting mixture, it’s just one member of a hard working family of combination primers and basecoats that are all engineered with their own unique characteristics. These synthetic primers and pre-treatment coatings do more than just protect: they actually help improve the bonding properties of paints and topcoats. That gives them a level of durability that no other anti-corrosive primer paint can offer. You have the:

• MTN PRO Epoxy Primer. This high-adhesion, anti-corrosive primer is perfect for building up unified surface thicknesses on bare metal that can be sanded down prior to painting.
• MTN PRO Universal White Primer. This fast drying, final coating primer is suitable for both metal and plastic, and is used to enhance the adhesion of paint to glossy surfaces.
• MTN PRO Wash Primer. This grey anchoring primer has excellent adhesive properties, and is ideal for polished metals like aluminium, as well as galvanised steel.
• MTN PRO Plastic Primer. Clear plastic primer provides a superior adhesion and anchoring layer for all types of plastics, and makes for easy topcoating with acrylic, synthetic, and nitrocellulose paints.
• MTN PRO White Base Primer. This solvent-based acrylic resin primer offers an ideal base coat for applying fluorescent, photoluminescent, and vivid coloured paints atop dark backgrounds.

MTN PRO even offers a white gesso primer for fine arts and crafts on fabric, wood, cardboard or concrete. It’s the optimal sealant for use all types of porous materials that need maximum adhesion and flexibility.

At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter if you need a bare metal primer to fill gaps, or are prepping a highly polished surface for an equally glossy topcoat, MTN PRO has a tough, anti corrosion treatment for the job. And starting with a heavy duty, anti-corrosion all purpose primer like MTN PRO’s Anti Rust Primer, you can put rust behind you once and for all.
