Average is depending on absorbency of the substrate, applicator device and mixing ratio.
Application steps

MIXING

Mix Sikafloor®-01 Primer (TH) at a ratio of 1:2  only with clean cool water.

APPLICATION

Apply diluted
Sikafloor®-01 Primer (TH) by way of a soft bristle broom, or long napped roller 10 – 15mm. Correct amount of mixed primer should always be applied to the prepared substrate, giving good penetration and film build. Thin applications may result in pinholing in finished surface or debonding levelling compound from the substrate.

On particularly porous surfaces where the initial prime coat is absorbed immediately, or mechanically prepared surfaces a second coat is recommended.

Avoid foam during application by adding more liquid.

 

Apply neat
Sikafloor®-01 Primer (TH) over raw timber/chipboard, CFC & scyon with a long napped roller 10 – 15mm.

Note: For best practice it is recommended subsequent construction materials are applied as soon as primer is dry, but no latter than 24hrs.

  • Do not allow primer to pool while drying as this will cause a soft spot under the cement compound.
  • Do not allow dust to settle on the surface.
  • If dust has contaminated the surface, first vacuum clean and apply another coat of primer before subsequent materials are installed.

CLEANING OF EQUIPMENT

Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use.
