Description

INTERLUX InterProtect 2000E Two-Part Epoxy Barrier Primer Kit, White – 2002EKIT-QT

Interlux InterProtect 2000E is a high-performance two-part epoxy primer and barrier coating for properly prepared fiberglass, composite, metal and wood surfaces. This white kit is used below the waterline for osmotic blister prevention and repair, and it can also be used as a strong undercoat or filling primer where a durable epoxy base is required.

The Microplates barrier technology helps create an overlapping shield that slows water migration through the coating film. It is a practical choice for boatyards and serious DIY maintenance because it offers excellent adhesion, anticorrosive performance on metal, and flexible overcoating windows when used as part of an Interlux bottom paint system.

• Two-part epoxy barrier primer for fiberglass hulls, metal corrosion protection, and high-build priming work
• Microplates technology creates an overlapping barrier to help reduce water absorption into fiberglass laminates
• Excellent adhesion to properly prepared fiberglass, composite, steel, aluminum, wood and epoxy surfaces
• Compatible with Interlux antifoulings, Interlux primers and Interfill fairing compounds when used according to the system directions
• Useful as a blister prevention coating, anticorrosive metal primer, tie coat, or undercoat/filling primer for repair work
