German term or phrase: Schweißfarbe

My text says "Farbe,Schweiss-", which presumably is "Schweissfarbe", but the most promising reference to "welding paint" or "weld paint" is: http://www.proz.com/kudoz/english_to_dutch/metallurgy_castin...
Is there such a thing as "weld paint" or "welding paint" (without a comma in between!)?

weld/welding/weld-through primer

Explanation:
If the term is part of your miminal-context list, this at least an option. A weld primer is a corrosion protection coating that does not have to be removed for welding.
