Why doesn CERAM-KOTE require a primer?
CERAM-KOTE s ability to adhere to a substrate is one of its major advantages. If applied over a primer, the adhesion strength is only as good as the adhesive strength of the primer. Adhesive strength is much higher using CERAM-KOTE alone without a primer than it is with a primer. In addition, the elimination of a primer eliminates the cost associated with the use of that primer and makes the use of CERAM-KOTE more economical.
