SURFACE COMPATIBILITY

Where Bleed-Thru Ink Water-Based Primer Markers Work

Mighty Marker® Bleed-Thru for Water-Based Primers is built for bare, unpainted steel and metal surfaces, including oily metal conditions.

Mark before the water-based primer coat goes on, the ink bleeds through the primer so layout lines stay visible during layout and prep. When the marks are no longer needed, seal them with an oil-based sealant for a completely flush finish with no visible trace.

Rated for use from 32°F to 100°F (0°C to 38°C).

Does Arro-Mark® offer custom marker solutions for specific applications?

Mighty Marker® Bleed-Thru for Water-Based Primers is a low VOC, non-hazardous marker line built for one job most markers can't do: mark bare, unpainted metal so the layout lines stay visible through a water-based primer during layout and prep. The ink penetrates the primer layer instead of disappearing underneath it, so structural steel and metal fabrication marks remain readable while the work is in progress.

Bleeds Through Water-Based Primer, Then Seals Away Clean

Available in three formats, IM-63 (10mL, reversible 2.3mm bullet nib with a belt clip), IM-64 (30ml, single broad-edge tip with three usable line widths), and IM-65 (45ml, large dauber applicator for broad single-dab coverage).

Seal marks with an oil-based sealant when the layout work is done, the surface becomes completely flush with no visible trace of the original mark. Rated from 32°F to 100°F (0°C to 38°C).

Where Mighty Marker® Bleed-Thru for Water-Based Primers Marking Matters Most

Mighty Marker® Bleed-Thru for Water-Based Primers marking shows up in metal fabrication, manufacturing, and construction, wherever bare metal gets marked ahead of a water-based primer coat, including enclosed or ventilation-limited work areas where a low VOC, non-hazardous formula matters.

It's built for steel and bare metal surfaces, including oily metal conditions. If the job calls for an oil-based primer instead, our Mighty Marker® Bleed-Thru for Oil-Based Primers line delivers the same bleed-thru result in a different chemistry.
