PRIMER & THINNER

What’s the single most important factor in achieving a good finish? It’s not the paint, as important as that is. It’s good preparation. With primer and thinner from CNH Industrial, you’re ready to take on the next paint job. Keep your equipment looking its best, and protect your investment, with genuine CNH Industrial primer and thinner.

Primed for Success

A fine finish starts with a high-quality primer. By providing a smooth, uniform base layer for paint, primer from CNH Industrial promotes a better finish by:

● Helping paint adhere to surfaces

● Sealing porous surfaces so they don’t absorb paint

● Covering marks, such as stains, that may show through paint

● Protecting surfaces from the elements

With a layer or two of primer, you not only get a more even finish but one that’s more durable and more accurate to the color you’ve chosen. For high-gloss paints, or when changing from dark to light colors, it’s indispensable.

Don’t Forget Thinner

Paint thinner comes in a variety of chemical compositions. But in all cases, its main purpose is to reduce the thickness of oil-based paints, enamels, varnishes, stains and primers — for example, to prepare them for use in a sprayer. As a cleaning agent, thinner can remove these same oil-based products from surfaces before they’ve dried. That makes it useful for cleaning wet brushes, rollers, sprayers and other tools. Thinner can also help to soften oil-based paint, varnish and the like before stripping them — but be sure to choose the right thinner for the surface.

As a pre-treatment for priming or painting, thinner is often less useful than other solvents like mineral spirits. But some thinners on some surfaces can help with cleaning and degreasing.
