Sikafloor®-01 Primer

One Component, multi-Purpose primer

Sikafloor®-01 Primer is a one part, multi-purpose, universal dispersion primer used to prime and seal concrete or mortar substrates prior to underlayment mortar application. Suitable for use in hot and tropical climatic conditions.

  • Effectively seals concrete surfaces in a single, economic operation
  • Preventing water loss into the substrate and bubbles forming in the leveling material, reducing absorbency
  • Improving adhesion on smooth and sound substrates
  • For interior use
  • Low consumption / high coverage
  • Suitable for application on subfloor heating systems
  • Short waiting time
  • Compatible to many substrates
  • Can be sprayed
  • Easy to apply
  • Can be diluted with water
  • Coloured

Consumption

Consumption

Undiluted ~70 g/m2 depending on absorbency of the substrate, applicator device and mixing ratio. This figure is theoretical and does not include for any additional material required due to surface porosity, surface profile, variations in level and wastage etc..
Application steps

APPLICATION

  • Shake or stir Sikafloor®-01 Primer before use.
  • Apply Sikafloor®-01 Primer with a roller or brush (whichever achieves better penetration
    and productivity).
  • Avoid formation of puddles.
  • Sikafloor®-01 Primer can be sprayed (mixing ratio at least 1:1 ).
  • On very absorbent substrates a second application is recommended.

CLEANING OF EQUIPMENT

Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use. Dried material can only be removed by mechanical means.
