• In order for this type of primer to work effectively, enough must be applied
to penetrate the surface pores. It must be worked into the substrate pores.
• Increases Working Time of Adhesives • Extra care is required when priming very porous surfaces. It is recommended
that in these cases the surface is dampened down with a wet sponge
immediately prior to priming. More than one coat of primer may be needed.
INDOOR & • Avoid applying onto hot surfaces or in very warm or dry conditions. This can
OUTDOOR lead to the primer “flash” drying before it can be absorbed into the substrate
pores resulting in a surface film and reducing the overall bond strength.
• Take care to use enough material when applying with a roller or sponge. These
tools can thin out the primer and not work it into the pores. It is recommended
that a long nap roller is used and that the primer is flood coated whenever
possible. If the primer seems to be drying within minutes it is probable that not
enough is being used.
