#27 - DeBeer 1-60 Plastic Adhesion Primer
One way to think about 1-60 is that its function is “
Its job is to create the layer of adhesion between the raw plastic and the overlaying paint coating.
Note: without it, the chance of paint delamination from the plastic is very high.
1-60 is suitable for all common plastic types currently used to produce OEM exterior parts used in the Automotive Industry.
Application is just 1 x light coat (followed by a 15-minute flash).

Important Notes
- Do not use on Polyethylene (PE) and pure Polypropylene (PP).
- Do not use on pre-primed plastic parts. If you're unsure of the plastic type, test the adhesion prior to refinishing.
- Do not use on factory pre-primed parts.
Don't forget: if you are applying a 2K primer as a surfacer, followed by a 2K colour or, 2K clearcoat over, e.g. a modern plastic bumper-bar, you should add 47-39 flex-additive to these products to ensure the 2K coating can “flex” on the bar without cracking or splitting.
Nothing worse than seeing cracked clearcoat on the bumper-bar of a nice car.
