Formulated for use above or below the waterline (interior or exterior), it inhibits corrosion and creates a stable foundation for topcoats, including Tuff-Coat rubberized non-skid deck coatings. Fast-drying and low-odor compared to solvent-based etching primers, it lets boat builders, fabricators, and DIY owners move from bare metal to finish coat in the same day. Choose the Quart for touch-ups, small hardware, and trailer components, or the Gallon for hulls, decks, tanks, and larger fabrication runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Tuff Coat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer Part Number: 9506\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaint Type: Water Based\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSurface Recommendation: Metal (Aluminum or Steel)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish Type: Matte\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eItem Form: Liquid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContainer Type: Can\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry Time: 2 Hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull Cure Time: 4 Hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoverage: 250 sq.ft. per gallon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecific Uses For Product: Interior\/Exterior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSizes \u0026amp; Options\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAvailable in Quart and Gallon sizes. As a rule of thumb, one gallon covers roughly 250 square feet at a standard coat, so a quart (about 60-65 sq.ft.) suits small parts, brackets, trailer frames, and spot repairs, while the gallon is sized for full hulls, transoms, swim platforms, and metal decking. Measure the bare metal surface area first, and round up to account for a second coat on pitted or heavily corroded steel.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tuff-Coat Marine","offers":[{"title":"Gallon","offer_id":49049211240667,"sku":"TUF-UT-95G","price":117.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Quart","offer_id":49049211273435,"sku":"TUF-UT-95Q","price":53.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/51XoqiqjLPL_8dfb8105-3dbf-4b2b-874b-bb25ae4c79e3.jpg?v=1785455332","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/tuff-coat-marine-metal-primer-water-based-aluminum-steel-gallon-quart","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
