Description

Silexcolor Primer is a modified potassium silicate-based primer in water solution. It is used to promote bonding and to even out the absorption of the substrate before final application of coloured finishes from the Silexcolor range.

When used in conjunction with Silexcolor coloured finishes, Silexcolor Primer forms a finishing system which guarantees protection of masonry substrates against attack by aggressive chemical products, U.V. rays and damp in general.

Transpiration of the substrate remains unchanged, and the product forms a highly decorative and attractive finish on the surface.

Features & Benefits


  • A modified potassium silicate-based primer in water solution used to make the absorption property of the substrate uniform before applying the Silexcolor finishing coat
  • Penetrates deep down into absorbent substrates without forming a surface film, and without altering its water vapour diffusion capacity
  • Promotes bonding for products from the Silexcolor range, and helps the silicatisation process
  • Helps to consolidate surface dust of the surfaces to be treated
  • Odourless and does not contain solvents, which makes it suitable for applications in closed or poorly ventilated areas



Application of the Product


Mix Silexcolor Primer well before use, and apply it using conventional techniques with a brush, a roller or by spray. One single coat is sufficient to guarantee good impregnation.

Protect from rain for at least 12 hours. Silexcolor Primer may be painted over with Silexcolor finishing compounds after 12-24 hours



Cleaning


Clean Silexcolor Primer from brushes, rollers and spraying equipment before it dries with water.



Recommendations


  • Do not apply the Silexcolor Primer cycle on painted substrates. Do not apply Silexcolor Primer on gypsum-based substrates
  • Silexcolor Primer must always be applied on substrates before applying the final Silexcolor silicate finishing coat
  • During application, wear suitable protective goggles and gloves
  • Use masking tape to protect adjacent areas not to be painted (fittings, glass, tiles, etc.) to avoid them coming into contact with Silexcolor Primer, as it could stain these materials
  • While pouring the product, do not use unlined glass or metal containers
