Moeller Self-Etching Base Coat Primer, Green 12 oz
Moeller Self-Etching Base Coat Primer, Green 12 oz — Product description
Moeller's self-etching base coat is the primer you spray on bare metal before paint. It's a 12-ounce zinc phosphate green aerosol that etches and primes aluminum and steel in one step, giving your topcoat something to grab on brackets, trim tabs, and transom hardware.
Moeller's self-etching base coat is the primer you reach for when you're painting bare metal on a boat. It's a 12-ounce aerosol in zinc phosphate green, and it goes down right on bare aluminum or steel with no separate etching step needed. The self-etching chemistry bites into the surface so your topcoat has something to grab.
This is prep, not a finish coat. Spray it over clean, bare metal, let it flash, then follow with your color. It's abrasion resistant, so it holds up while you're handling and masking parts on the bench. Boat owners and anglers use it on outboard brackets, aluminum jack plates, trim tabs, and transom hardware, any spot where paint tends to peel off raw metal.
One can covers small jobs and touch-ups. If you're prepping a larger surface, plan on more than one. Shake it well, keep your coats light, and let it cure before you topcoat.

Frequently asked questions
What surfaces is this base coat made for?
Bare aluminum and steel on marine applications. It's built to bond to raw metal like brackets, trim tabs, and transom hardware before you topcoat.
Do I need a separate etching primer first?
No. It's self-etching, so it etches and primes in one step on clean, bare metal.
What color is it?
Zinc phosphate green. It's a base coat, so you'll cover it with your finish color.
How big is the can?
12 ounces, in an aerosol can. It's sold as a single can.
Can I use it as a finish coat?
No. It's a primer base coat, not a topcoat. Spray your color over it once it has flashed and cured.
