Q: Can UCP99-01 be applied directly over rusted steel?
A: Yes, It bonds to tightly adhered rust after light preparation (e.g. wire brushing). Do not remove all rust; the coating "bites" into rough rust for adhesion.
Q: Is a primer or topcoat required with Chassis Saver UCP99-01?
A: No, It is designed as a single-component system with no primer or topcoat necessary. For bare aluminum, however, a suitable primer may be needed.
Q: What substrates or conditions reduce its effectiveness?
A: Bare, smooth aluminum does not adhere well; aluminum should be primed first. Also, apply thin coats; excessively thick layers may trap moisture and cause bubbles during curing.
