ECP199 Adhesion Promoter - Clear Automotive Paint Primer - 11 oz. Aerosol Can

Awesome product Awesome seller totally 10 stars . Great communications

DupliColor has done it again! This stuff is honestly a game-changer. So far, I’ve used it for repainting my Mazda emblems/badges (I jumped on the blackout bandwagon, no regrets!), as well as to help prep for a clear sealant coat on a craft project. Admittedly, it worked better on the car badges, but I can only assume that’s because I was able to sand before spraying this. It still worked great for both, and I certainly couldn’t have gotten durable results on the craft project without this, but a light pre-sanding is the way to go whenever possible. For the craft project, I needed to seal some vinyl lettering on a small metal sign. I bought it from the store pre-painted, and I’m not sure what type of paint was used, but it’s very durable and very smooth. Pre-scuffing before applying the vinyl wasn’t an option, and I was nervous that the clear coat would peel from the painted surface, so after applied the lettering, I sprayed it down with I think 3 light coats of this product. After applying several coats of a triple thick clear coat and letting it cure for a week, I have had ZERO issues with anything. No flaking, peeling, lifting or adhesion failure at all. And the adhesion promoter is crystal clear and goes on so smooth that you can’t even tell it’s under the clear coat. It lays down REALLY well; doesn’t leave any weird texture or anything, and a little goes a long way (at least, for my smaller jobs; I can’t really speak to the coverage per can on larger jobs like auto body panels/bumpers/etc.) I just bought another can of it as I’m planning to paint my clear acrylic makeup organizers when I refinish my vanity. I WILL say, though - this stuff has a VERY strong smell that lingers, so make sure you’re using it in a well ventilated area with a good crossflow of air, and wear a high quality respirator mask with clean filters rated for organic vapors. I like the 3M 6001 with the kit that allows you to clip on a P95-P100 filter in front of the vapor filter. The strong smell is really the only downside to this stuff, but it’s worth ‘fumigating’ the garage for final results that look great and hold up extremely well! I’ve not once bought a DupliColor product and wound up disappointed or underwhelmed. There are MANY reasons why the DIY automotive community consistently recommends their products, and this hella smelly miracle in a rattle can is one of ‘em!

Bien

I grabbed this adhesion promoter for repainting some scratched interior plastic trim in my car studio, right next to my desk where i keep client samples. I washed and scuffed the pieces, then hit them with a couple light coats from this can. The color coat gripped way better than when i skipped primer on a previous project, no weird fisheyes or random peeling. Smell is strong though, so i had to crack the window and run a cheap fan, which made spraying in my tiny room a little annoying. The nozzle sprays evenly but clogs if u don’t wipe it between passes. For quick plastic fixes and prototype mockups, it does its job and saves me rework.

Used dupli colour adhesion promoter, fabric paint and clear coat to paint some interior trim pieces on my 7 year old car. Only did it a week ago but it turned out great. Really happy with the product.
