The Importance of Pretreatment

The ultimate quality of a finish depends on how well the substrate is prepared. The term “pretreatment” is used to describe any chemical process undertaken before a surface is painted. PPG TrueFinish pretreatment products range from simple one stage pressure wash cleaner/coaters up to three and five stage spray or dip systems.

The pretreatment product line is designed with maximum flexibility to clean and coat your parts under a wide variety of temperatures, metal substrates, and metal qualities. The standard product offering features one-stage spray wand and three-stage systems. Designed with PPG's latest technology, these products offer solutions to many of your pretreatment needs.
