- Adhesion to most epoxies with heat distortion level of 201F, 94C, the primer also adheres to fiberglass, properly prepared metal, wood, MDF, brick, concrete and polyurethane foam.
- Rapid coat buildup to 40 mils, 1000 microns, wet on wet, on composite plugs and master mold surfaces; saves time and labor cost.

How much catalyst do i use, and what type?
You would use standard MEKP catalyst as supplied with product, it is actually the same catalyst you would use with Polyester Resins at an addition of 2% ie 20ml per litre.
After applying Durabuild primer how long do i have to leave it before i can sand it down on my mdf plug?
It is best to leave the material overnight before sanding down to ensure full curing has taken place.
