PrimoShield is often compared to Nylac—and that’s fair. Both coatings have their place in the market.
But when it came to alloy boats, PrimoShield had one major drawback: it bonds extremely well. Once fully cured, removing it for repairs was nearly impossible. The only real option? Sanding it off—slow, messy, and not something anyone wants to deal with.
Over the years, we tested just about every paint stripper available. None delivered a complete removal. There were always stubborn patches left behind, often leading to extra work and, worse, potential damage to the alloy surface.
Then we got a tip-off from KiwiRail about a new remover they’d been using.
We gave it a go.
Game changer.
For the first time, we’ve found a solution that removes PrimoShield cleanly, efficiently, and without the usual headaches. It’s fast, thorough, and—honestly—about as close to the “perfect” paint stripper as we’ve ever seen.
If you’ve ever struggled with coating removal, you’ll understand just how big this is.
In the video, only water is on the cloth being used. The remover itself is 100% natural.
