- Carboxide grey oxide metal primer is lead free and replaces the traditional 'red lead' with all the same protective qualities. Red lead, while not actually banned is harmful to health and our grey oxide is a much safer alternative. If you're concerned about working with painted surfaces that may contain lead, refer to this guide from the British Coatings Federation - Apply by brush, roller or conventional or airless spray.

If painting non ferrous or galvanised metal, use Mordant Solution or Etching Primer. If you're unsure about which primer to use, try our online chat or drop us an email: sales@palatinepaints.co.uk. - Also available in Black and Red.
