Do you have a really tricky surface to paint? Ultra Grip allows for Fusion™ to adhere to surfaces that are typically not for painting, such as a lacquered surface, melamine, thermofoil or laminate. It is a non-toxic and water-based.
When do I use Ultra Grip™?
Use on surfaces that you can’t sand, such as thermofoil or some laminates, or even really detailed surfaces that are too difficult to scuff. A good way to tell if you need Ultra Grip™ is to paint a test area with just Fusion. If the paint laces or beads, you likely need Ultra Grip™.
Will it dry clear?
Yes, it will! This means that if you have a piece you want to distress to show the original finish but it is too difficult to sand, you can use Ultra Grip™ with no worries.
Is Ultra Grip™ a primer?
Ultra Grip™ is an adhesion primer, so it helps Fusion stick to slippery surfaces. It is not a transition primer for painting over dark or bright colours. For that, we recommend Sterling or another light grey. Ultra Grip™ will also not stop bleed-through from tannins or rust. For that, we recommend Zinsser BIN shellac-based primer.
