Not priming substrates is among the top three causes of installation failure (along with moisture issues and subfloor deterioration that is not addressed). Primers provide options for flooring professionals. To keep primer decisions and their uses efficient, Schönox provides a concise 3-product acrylic primer series, addressing every subfloor need.
This dilutable primer reduces the absorbency of porous concrete and cement substrates, improved the adhesion of self-leveling compounds, and protects the underlying porous substrates from the moisture within compounds, drying in 10 minutes when used on concrete and gypsum substrates.
This ready-mixed, solvent-free acrylic primer is ideal for use on gypsum substrates to bind residual dust, reduce absorbency and improve adhesion prior to installation of luxury vinyl tiles, drying in as little as 10 minutes.
This primer addresses non-porous substrates such as ceramic tiles, epoxy sealer, vinyl, rubber, linoleum and wood substrates in preparation for self-leveling compound use, drying in 1 to 2 hours.
