Mighty Marker® Bleed-Thru for Oil-Based Primers is a marker line built for one job most markers can't do: mark bare, unpainted metal so the layout lines stay visible after an oil-based primer goes on top. The ink penetrates the primer layer instead of disappearing underneath it, so structural steel and metal fabrication marks remain readable straight through to the final topcoat.
Bleeds Through Oil-Based Primer, No Re-Marking Needed
Available in three sizes, IM-13 (13ml, reversible bullet/chisel tip), IM-14 (22ml, chisel tip), and IM-15 (30ml, single broad-edge tip with three usable line widths). Marks resist water, UV, fading, and weather, holding up for long-lasting outdoor performance. Rated from -40°F to 150°F (-40°C to 66°C).
To seal your marks and stop bleed through on IM-13, 14, and 15, you must apply a water-based or alcohol based sealant.
Where Mighty Marker® Bleed-Thru for Oil-Based Primers Marking Matters Most
Mighty Marker® Bleed-Thru for Oil-Based Primers marking shows up in metal fabrication, manufacturing, construction, and automotive manufacturing, wherever bare metal gets marked ahead of an oil-based primer coat.
It's built for steel and bare metal surfaces, including oily metal conditions.
If the job calls for a water-based primer instead, our Mighty Marker® Bleed-Thru for Water-Based Primers line delivers the same bleed-thru result in a different chemistry.
