Product details
Name: Bitumen Primer
A quality grade, highly penetrative, bituminous solution for priming surfaces prior to the application of bituminous materials and flashing tapes.
Features: Cold applied. – Low viscosity. – Suitable for use with flashing tapes. – Heavy duty formula. – Quick drying. – Deep penetrating. – Promotes the adhesion of bituminous waterproofing systems and sheet coverings. – Stabilises porous and dusty surfaces. – Resistant to rain after approximately 30 minutes. – For exterior use.
Application: Bond It Bitumen Primer can be used to prime concrete roofs and floors, cementitious screeds/renders, bitumen felt, slate, mastic asphalt, weathered corrugated iron, steel, zinc and lead. It is the recommended primer for use with the BITUBOND range of bituminous roof coatings, flashing tapes or mastics. Application by brush or roller.
Instructions: Preparation: All surfaces must be structurally sound, clean, dry and free from surface contaminants such as grease, rust and dirt. If necessary, remove any organic growth i.e. moss or lichen, with a fungicidal wash such as Mould Stop. On bare metal a rust inhibiting product, such as red oxide or zinc phosphate should be applied and allowed to harden.
Application: Apply by brush or roller. Using a brush, scrub the primer into the surface. Ensure that only a thin coat is applied and that there is no pooling. Priming should extend at least 75mm beyond the area to be waterproofed. Leave to dry for 2-3 hours before continuing with further work. With fibre cement or dry rag based bituminous felts, apply generously to saturate the surface.
Drying Time: Resistant to rainfall after 20-30 minutes. May be extended for heavy coatings or in cold weather. Generally leave for 2 hours before commencing top coat products.
Cleaning: Clean with paraffin (kerosene) or Bond It White Spirit.
Limitations: BITUMEN PRIMER may bleed through any paints subsequently applied over it. Apply a primer recommended by the paint manufacturer before overpainting. Do not use in temperatures less than +5°C.
