Substrate Preparation
The primer must only be applied to a prepared substrate. Please refer to the appropriate application guide for information about correct surface preparation.
Mixing
First stir the tub contents thoroughly. Then add the Ennis-Flint MMAXGRIP PRMX CATALYST while stirring the resin at the slow-speed setting and mix for 2 minutes. Make sure the that the product on the base and sides of the container is mixed in. At product temperatures <10˚C the product should be stirred for 4 minutes, as the MMAXGRIP PRMX CATALYST will take longer to dissolve.
Application
Use the sheepskin roller to apply an even film-forming coat of primer. Avoid creating puddles of primer. Once the coating has cured, apply a second coat to cover any defects (bubbles, areas not fully coated).
Preparation for Subsequent Layers
For the subsequent application of Mortar: Once the primer has hardened, apply a second layer and top with a little quartz sand (0.1 – 0.2kg/m² at 0.2 – 0.6mm) while the primer is still wet. The sand topping creates the necessary key. i.e. roughness, for application of the mortar. Never apply the topping to the first coat of primer.
