The "Purple Primer" is essentially "Acetone" which PVC makers recommend for priming PVC. The purple coloring is for building inspector's benefit. It's an indication that the PVC piping was primed before the bonding solution/agent was applied.
@mrgcav Жыл бұрын
Purple Primer usually has four active ingredents, plus dye. Its not just acetone.

I use rubbing alcohol to clean the surface first. When dry then I prime with Rustoleum Self Etching Primer - Gray. Then what ever Rustoleum 2X color I need. Finish with Rustoleum Matte Clear Coat. I have camo painted all my pellet rifles, shooting benches / tables (folding tables which are plastic). I have also painted T-Fal frying pans, these make excellent cheap plinking targets. Any paint I used without the self etching primer would flake off in big chunks when struck with pellets. This stopped when i switched rustoleum self etching primer. I know its a bit off topic, but the point Im trying to make is this Self Etching primer is awesome on plastics and tough as nails. I don't have to repaint my plastic surfaces anymore due to normal wear and tear. Great Video! :)

Chemist here with a few years coating chemistry experience. Never though of purple primer for polyethylene especially HDPE. Makes sense. Solvent softens HDPE and let's materials penetrate the polymer network. I looked at ingredients over 10 years ago and, back then, listed a chemical used to bond scratch resistant coatings to polycarbonate eyeglass lenses. So it makes sense for purple primer to help bond paiit to plastic. Now I have a resin shed converted to home office that needs its roof painted and this looks better than anything made by paint companies.

people are looking for an adhesion test , not a wire brush scratch test because any coating in gonna get scratched from using a steel wire brush on it , even a 5000 dollar factory automotive paint job is gonna easily get scratched from using a steel wire brush on it. he should have tested it with using his fingernails or cleaning it to see what the results of that would be because that would be the most likely thing to come in contact with most surfaces . but contact with a wire brush is not common so this video was kind of useless .

Caution ! The purple PVC primer is a great bonding agent! .. However if you are going to spray paint a white or lighter color the purple color will bleed up through the paint and leave a splotchy purple cast in your finished paint, Even with numerous coats of paint the purple will reappear. Oatley does make a clear PVC primer that works very well and won't bleed through your finished paint.

Main solvent in pvc primer is acetone. Fast acting solvent used to soften, clean and prepare plastic. Nothing of adhesion is left behind. You are painting chemically treated raw plastic. Purple is mainly a visual indicator. Once opened, they both quickly disappear from the can. Even with the top on. Makes it hard to keep on our trucks.

Haven't looked recently, but they used to sell untinted PVC primer. They started making it purple so plumbing inspectors could easily tell primer had been used in construction. Also, you can get the primer in a spray can now, more expensive, but I know you weigh cost vs ease vs time too. You may also be able to use it through an air gun, but I don't know, it is quick drying so it might clog up quickly.

What I did was to remove the trim and make a block from 2×4 to support the back side.then with a piece of the old textured trim 2"×6" glued to a radius on another 2"×4 .using a heat gun and heating the trim (I practiced on the old peice) I was able to transfer the texture to the damaged trim by pressing and with a roll motion using it as a sort of die,make sure to also put a champher on the edges.i then (using the clear primer ) painted it with flat black from the auto paint storei its holding up great.it takes so time to get the texture right but with some practice on the old trim,with different heat and pressure methods it can come out prity good.also for small spots I used a plywood backing on a smaller die using vice grips.id like to see a expearamint with that.any other methods you come up with.thanks for the great info,if been searching for a good adhesive to hold the paint,I think you nailed it buddy.😉

Then lastly, 4) I saw on another video that you have to first wash the deck box with soapy, sudsy, water, wipe it down, apply paint thinner and let it dry. Then spray with spray paint meant for plastic. I'm curious to see if a spray paint designed for plastic works better with a prepping stage or without.
