Marine primer paints serve as the crucial preparatory coating of a marine paint system, providing overall durability and enhancing the adhesion and finish of topcoats in aggressive environments. They improve surface uniformity and protect against moisture and corrosion. Common types include acrylic (fast-drying, versatile), epoxy (good adhesion and chemical resistance) and alkyd (easy to use). When selecting a marine primer, consider surface type, compatibility with topcoats, drying time, and the service interval required for optimal results.
