Activators for Paint and Coating Systems

Boost performance and reduce cure times with the right activator from GracoRoberts. We carry a variety of activators designed for use with paint, primer and coating systems. These activators are essential for initiating the curing process in multi-component products and when paired correctly, they enhance chemical bonding to speed up drying times. The right activator can also improve the quality of the finish, creating a harder, more durable surface. Whether you're working with primers or topcoats, the right activator from GracoRoberts can help ensure consistent results and a long-lasting finish.

Designed for Demanding Systems

In aerospace settings, time and precision matter. Activators support fast turnarounds without compromising quality, getting you off the ground and back in the sky in less time. They’re used to initiate reactions in urethane and epoxy systems — both of which are critical when applying corrosion-resistant primers or high-gloss topcoats that need to perform under pressure.

GracoRoberts offers activators that are compatible with our paint, primer and coating systems.  Because these activators are compatible with a wide range of our high-performance systems, you can easily get the finish you want in less time. Whether you’re painting aircraft exteriors or coating structural components, the right activator helps get the job done right.

Compatible with Leading Coating Brands
