Primax Hi-Build Aluminum Paint Heat Resisting 1000FH
Primax Heat Resisting Paint – High-Temperature Protection for Steel Structures
Steel structures exposed to continuous high temperatures require a coating specifically designed for demanding heat conditions. Ordinary decorative coatings may not be suitable where surfaces are repeatedly subjected to extreme temperatures.
Primax Heat Resisting Paint is specially formulated for direct application on steel structures exposed to continuous temperatures ranging from 500°F to 1000°F. It provides durable protection in high-temperature environments while helping maintain the integrity of the underlying steel surface.
Formulated with aluminium flakes and modified silicone resin, Primax Heat Resisting Paint is suitable for a wide range of indoor and outdoor steel applications including chimneys, furnace doors, heat exchangers, rotary kilns, hot piping, mufflers, exhaust systems, and other high-temperature structures.
Designed for High-Temperature Steel Surfaces
High-temperature steel surfaces face operating conditions that are very different from ordinary metalwork. Continuous heat can affect conventional coatings and reduce their ability to maintain a protective film.
Primax Heat Resisting Paint is developed specifically for steel structures operating within a continuous temperature range of 500°F to 1000°F. Its modified silicone resin-based formulation helps provide effective protection in demanding heat-exposed environments.
Key Benefits
- High-Temperature Resistance: Formulated for steel surfaces exposed to continuous temperatures from 500°F to 1000°F.
- Direct Steel Application: Designed for direct application on properly prepared steel structures.
- Indoor & Outdoor Protection: Suitable for high-temperature steel applications in both indoor and outdoor environments.
- Durable Protective Finish: Helps protect the underlying steel in demanding heat conditions.
- Modified Silicone Resin: Uses a resin system developed for high-temperature coating performance.
- Aluminium Flake Pigment: Provides the characteristic silver appearance of the coating.
- Fast Touch Dry: Touch dry in approximately 20–30 minutes under normal conditions.
- Multiple Application Methods: Can be applied by spray, roller, or brush.
- Normally No Thinning Required: Supplied for practical application without routine dilution.
Recommended Applications
Primax Heat Resisting Paint is ideal for steel structures and equipment exposed to continuous high-temperature conditions, including:
- Chimneys
- Furnace doors
- Heat exchangers
- Rotary kilns
- Hot piping
- Mufflers
- Exhaust systems
- Other suitable high-temperature steel structures
The coating should be selected according to the actual operating temperature and service conditions of the steel structure.
Temperature Resistance
Primax Heat Resisting Paint is specifically formulated for continuous exposure within the following temperature range:
500°F to 1000°F
This makes it suitable for steel structures where elevated temperature is a regular part of operating conditions rather than occasional short-term exposure.
For applications operating outside the stated temperature range, project-specific technical guidance should be obtained before use.

Silver High-Temperature Finish
Primax Heat Resisting Paint is supplied in Silver. The formulation contains aluminium flakes, which contribute to its characteristic metallic appearance.
The final appearance may vary depending on steel preparation, application method, coating thickness, and service conditions.
Surface Preparation
Proper steel preparation is essential before applying a high-temperature protective coating. The surface should be clean, sound, and free from contamination that could interfere with adhesion.
- Remove oil, grease, dirt, and surface contaminants.
- Remove loose rust, scale, and poorly adhering previous coatings.
- Clean welds, edges, corners, and difficult areas thoroughly.
- Ensure the steel surface is suitably dry before application.
- Make sure the substrate is properly prepared for direct application of the coating.
The supplied information describes Primax Heat Resisting Paint as suitable for direct application on steel structures. No separate primer requirement has been specified in the supplied product data.
Application Methods
Primax Heat Resisting Paint can be applied using:
- Spray
- Roller
- Brush
The application method can be selected according to the size, shape, accessibility, and requirements of the steel structure.
General Application Guidance
- Inspect the steel surface and complete the necessary preparation.
- Remove rust, dirt, grease, oil, loose material, and contamination.
- Mix Primax Heat Resisting Paint thoroughly before use.
- Normally, thinning is not required.
- Apply an even coat using spray, roller, or brush.
- Maintain consistent coverage over the complete steel surface.
- Pay particular attention to edges, welds, corners, and difficult-to-reach areas.
- Allow the coating to dry adequately before recoating.
- Clean all application equipment immediately after use.
Thinning
Primax Heat Resisting Paint is stated as normally not requiring thinning.
Unnecessary dilution may change the application consistency and coating film. If adjustment is required for specialized equipment or site conditions, follow current technical guidance rather than adding thinner without confirmed instructions.
Drying & Recoat Time
Under normal conditions, the stated drying characteristics are:
- Touch Dry: 20–30 minutes
- Recoat: 16–24 hours
Actual drying and recoating time may vary depending on temperature, ventilation, humidity, film thickness, application method, and steel surface conditions.
Allow the coating to dry adequately before applying another coat or placing the coated structure into service.
Protection for Indoor & Outdoor High-Temperature Areas
Primax Heat Resisting Paint is designed to provide protection against extreme temperatures in both indoor and outdoor environments.
This makes it suitable for industrial structures and equipment where high operating temperatures are combined with demanding service conditions.
Equipment Cleanup
Clean brushes, rollers, spray equipment, mixing containers, and other tools with Primax Wood Care Thinner immediately after use.
Prompt cleaning helps prevent coating material from drying inside application equipment.
Common Application Mistakes to Avoid
- Poor steel preparation: Rust, oil, grease, scale, and loose coatings can affect adhesion and coating performance.
- Applying over contaminated steel: The surface should be thoroughly cleaned before painting.
- Unnecessary thinning: The product is stated as normally not requiring thinning.
- Recoating too early: Allow approximately 16–24 hours before applying another coat under normal conditions.
- Uneven application: Maintain consistent coating coverage, particularly around welds, corners, and edges.
- Using outside the stated temperature range: The product is formulated for continuous temperatures between 500°F and 1000°F.
- Delaying equipment cleaning: Clean tools immediately after use with the specified thinner.
