Rust-oleum 208113 Epoxy Acrylic Primer 1 Gallon Gray

Product Description

The RUST-OLEUM 208113 is a water-based epoxy acrylic primer designed to maximize the performance of Sierra Performance epoxy topcoat systems. Supplied in a 1-gallon container with a flat, gray finish, this primer contains low VOCs, low hazardous air pollutants, and low solvent odor, making it suitable for enclosed or occupied spaces where fume exposure is a concern. It is engineered as a two-component system, requiring a separately ordered activator, and dries to touch in approximately 30 minutes. Facility maintenance professionals, industrial painters, and coating applicators working in food-processing or commercial environments are the primary installers.

This primer is formulated for spray application in settings where chemical resistance and corrosion protection are required. It serves as the foundation coat beneath S60 Water-Based Epoxy Maintenance Coating and other Sierra Performance epoxy finishes. Its low-odor, water-based chemistry makes it appropriate for interior industrial and commercial environments, including food-processing facilities, where it meets USDA requirements for incidental food contact. The flat gray finish provides a neutral base well suited to subsequent topcoat adhesion.

Key Features

• Water-based formula with low VOCs, low HAPs, and low solvent odor for use in occupied or ventilation-limited spaces
• Dries to touch in approximately 30 minutes when spray applied
• Superior adhesion with outstanding resistance to chemicals and corrosion
• Meets USDA requirements for incidental food contact
• Two-component system — base and activator ordered separately for controlled mix ratios
• Increases adhesion and performance of Sierra Performance epoxy topcoat systems

Compatibility

Designed for use as a primer coat beneath Sierra Performance epoxy systems, including the S60 Water-Based Epoxy Maintenance Coating. Top coat compatibility is limited to products specified in the Sierra Performance system; do not assume cross-line compatibility with non-specified coatings.

Installation Notes

Application is performed by trained coating applicators or maintenance professionals familiar with two-component coating systems. Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and properly prepared before primer application per the manufacturer coating system requirements. Order and measure the activator component separately; mix components at the specified ratio before spraying. Follow all applicable safety regulations and local codes governing VOC-compliant coatings in the project jurisdiction.
