The Mipa Aktivprimer is an acid-curing, chromate-free 2K primer (wash primer) developed specifically for aluminium substrates, with active corrosion protection and excellent adhesion on iron, steel and galvanised substrates. It can be overcoated with all Mipa 1K and 2K systems (exception: epoxy systems and water-based basecoats) – including the three-layer build-up of Aktivprimer / filler / topcoat.
