Outboard Primer Touch-Up Pen – OEM Primer Paint Repair

Properly Prepare Your Outboard Paint Repairs

The OEM Primer Touch-Up Pen is designed to prepare small repair areas before applying color paint on outboard motors and marine equipment. Primer improves paint adhesion and helps create a smooth, uniform base so the final color coat bonds correctly to the surface.
