ElaProof Primer installation instructions

Applications

Porous materials such as new or old concrete surfaces, mineralite, plastered surfaces and gypsum. The treatment improves the adhesion of ElaProof to the substrate and clogs the pores of the substrate. Air bubbles rising to the surface are often a sign of too little priming. Suitable for indoor and outdoor use.

Chassis

Before applying ElaProof Primer, dirt, grease, dust and other loose material are removed from the substrate and the substrate is cleaned of old paint and surface layers.

• The new concrete floor surface must be at least 4 weeks old before coating, sufficiently strong and hardened so that the moisture in the concrete casting is bound and the surface is sufficiently dried.

• It is also important to remove cement adhesive from concrete surfaces, for example by sanding, so that the primer penetrates well into the pores of the concrete.

• If porous mineral substrates are to be cleaned, the requirements and legislation for asbestos removal must be complied with. After priming, ElaProof can be applied to new concrete castings when the relative humidity of the concrete, measured from the casting surface, does not exceed 90% RH. For fresh concrete casting, ElaProof test coating is recommended after priming.

Instructions

Before application, dirt, grease, dust and other loose material are removed from the substrate and the substrate is cleaned of old paint and surface layers.

Operating temperature:

(air and surface) over +5°C. The primer is applied in a thin, even layer so that all the substance is absorbed on the surface and no ponds are formed. Only one treatment is sufficient if the substrate is not very dry and absorbent.

Tools:

roller, brush or syringe. Tools are cleaned with water.

Shelf life:

12 months from manufacture, see jar. The product must be protected from frost and direct sunlight.

Drying time:

1-4 h depending on conditions and substrate.

Mixing ratio:

1 part ElaProof Primer and 2 parts water (1: 2). Make the mixture in a sufficiently large, clean container. First measure the water and then add ElaProof Primer. Stir gently.

Consumption:

Depends on the roughness and porosity of the substrate, typically 0.1 to 0.5 l / m2 (primer diluted with water)

Chassis • Consumption l/m²

N.B! Always mix the product before use. The mixture diluted with water must be used within a week. The mixture is a milky liquid that dries to a transparent surface and leaves a breathable surface.
