NRX
A revolutionary and environmentally friendly Nanotech based rust converting system compatible with most high performance low VOC top coats.
Steel
NanoPrimeTM can be applied on painted or unpainted steel surfaces with or without rust. It chemically reacts with rust creating an inert corrosion resistant surface. After mechanical cleaning and pressure washing the surface to remove loose scale, oil, grease and dirt, apply two coats of NanoPrimeTM and a low VOC high performance top coat to create a durable anti-corrosive system.
Aluminum
Aluminum corrodes, especially in high humidity, industrial and marine environments. NanoPrimeTM solves this problem by chemically reacting with any grade of aluminum and provides excellent adhesion and long term corrosion protection.
NanoPrimeTM on aluminum requires no surface preparation other than removal of grease, oil, and dirt. One coat is required as a base for many high performance top coats.
Galvanized
NanoPrimeTM chemically reacts with weathered galvanized surfaces. Pressure wash to removal oil and dirt from the surface and apply one coat of NanoPrimeTM. Etching may be necessary on new galvanized surfaces prior to applying NanoPrimeTM to remove chromates on the surface for proper adhesion.
About 70% of the cost and 75% of the failures of coating systems, relate directly to surface preparation
Why Do Coatings Fail?
NRXTM NanoPrimeTM is a “one step” process and requires minimal surface preparation. With conventional paint systems, surface preparation can account for as much as 70% or more of the total cost of painting compared to 5%-15% for NRXTM. This equates to significant cost savings.
NRXTM is the Solution to the Proble
No sand blastingFast application process, quick drying 30 minutes to touch, 2 hours for re-coat.No VOC’s.Safer for employees and the environment.Can be applied to rust, galvanized, painted/ unpainted steel, aluminum & concrete. |
Conventional painting requiressand blasting. |

NRXTM Product Description
NanoPrimeTM works by chemically reacting with iron and iron oxide (rust) to form iron phosphate and creates a Nano bond with both metallic and painted surfaces.
The chemically bonded layer is insoluble and extremely corrosion resistant. This “bonding” process also provides superior adhesion and flexibility and stops under film corrosion that occurs when conventional coatings are damaged. The elasticity of NanoPrimeTM makes it very durable in temperature variations from -670C to +2000C (-900F to 4000F).
NanoPrimeTM forms an excellent foundation for a variety of high performance top coats, many of which have already been tested and qualified for application over NanoPrimeTM.
Characteristics and Application Parameters
NanoPrimeTM is a water based, “single pack” self-priming coating system that is easy to use:
- Environmentally friendly: no VOC’s, non-toxic, non-flamable, free of heavy metals.
- Versatile: can be used and applied over damp rusty surfaces, galvanized steel, aluminum or stainless with minimal surface preparation.
- NanoPrimeTM can be used as a maintenance tool to repair corroding painted surfaces.
- Protect concrete structures from moisture by creating a sealed layer as a result of the chemical reaction of NanoPrimeTM with the concrete.
NanoPrimeTM as a foundation for high performance coating systems.
NanoPrimeTM is compatible with water based or 100% solids based top coats, such as Epoxy, Polyurethane, Polysiloxane, etc.
NanoPrimeTM is compatible with most top coats that have a low VOC content.
