AquaSeal FlexPrimer – flexible primer

Description: AquaSeal FlexPrimer is a high-quality water-based acrylate primer reducing side bonding, for application beneath our AquaSeal finishes. AquaSeal FlexPrimer features a medium grain enhancement and a neutral color look. It can be applied on all floors sanded down to the wood base. Giscode W2+.

Special notes

Not suited as topcoat. The Primer has a low side-gluing effect and is recommended especially for edge lamella parquet and under floor heating. For exotic woods we recommend our AquaSeal ExoBloc.

Application

AquaSeal FlexPrimer is roller applied uniformly rich onto the puttied and sanded raw wood. If the coat applied is too poor there is the risk of a non-uniform color picture, which shows even only after the subsequent finish coats.

Being a primer, AquaSeal Flex Primer due to the danger of sanding through should not be intermediately sanded; a slight beheading of upstanding wood fibres though is possible. The trowel application crosswise of AquaSeal FlexPrimer is possible on suitable wooden substrates. Nervous or heavily absorbent wood species, for example beech, maple and ash or dried woods must not be trowelled but roller-coated! The conditions as per DIN 18 356 are to be met. Do not apply this material with temperature below 15°C floor temperature. Clean the working tools with water.

Draying

Recoatable after 1 h at 23°C/50% rel. humidity. With a view to the wood we recommend one rollered coat per day, so that the wood can give off the absorbed water. In case of bad ventilation, low temperature or increased coat thickness the drying may be delayed considerably.

Consumption

Depending on wood surface and method of working: 100 ml/m2 resp. 10 m2/l . When applying onto heavily absorbing surfaces (such as beech) an increased consumption must be expected.

Factory finished engineered wooden flooring: this primer is not suited to additionally supplemental coat the UV-engineered wooden flooring.
