RLA Universal Primer

DESCRIPTION:

RLA UNIVERSAL PRIMER is a rapid drying, solvent free, low VOC water-based acrylic primer.

RECOMMENDED USE:

For use over porous and non-porous substrates such as ceramic tiles and painted surfaces (water-based only). RLA Universal primer is compatible with cement-based ceramic tile adhesives and levelling compounds.

POROUS SUBSTRATES:

Dilute 1-part Universal Primer with two parts clean water. Apply primer using a roller or brush, ensuring the entire area is completely primed. Very porous concrete may require a second coat of Universal Primer diluted 1 part Primer with three parts water. Allow curing for 30 minutes.

NON-POROUS SUBSTRATES:

Apply an even layer of Universal Primer NEAT (undiluted to non-porous substrates) using a roller or brush, ensuring the entire area is completely primed. Allow the primer to dry to a transparent film (approx. 1 hour @ 23°C). Once Universal Primer is a tack-free transparent film, levelling compounds can be applied over the primer. For extremely non-porous substrates, it is recommended that a light grind or sand be conducted to enhance adhesion. Do not apply Universal Primer on ceramic tiles with a high gloss coating.

COVERAGE:

Approximately 5 to 10m² per litre. Spread rates may vary depending on substrate absorbency.

NOTES & PRECAUTIONS:

• Drying times can be extended when applied in cold ambient temperatures.
• Do not apply Universal Primer on tiles that have a wax or excessively high gloss coating
• Do not apply to substrates with rising damp. Internal use only

IMPORTANT

This primer is required when using RLA Trulevel EconoPro Plus.
