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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoeller'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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSelf-etching base coat: bonds directly to bare aluminum and steel with no separate etch step\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc phosphate green pigment: a corrosion-inhibiting primer base for marine metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12-ounce aerosol can: spray application for brackets, trim tabs, and transom hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAbrasion resistant film: holds up to handling and masking before your topcoat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle can: sized for touch-ups and small bare-metal prep jobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Moeller reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhat surfaces is this base coat made for?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eBare aluminum and steel on marine applications.
