Silic8 Solo Primer

Silic8 Solo Primer is a mineral based plaster primer which is designed to control many high suction backgrounds whilst still remaining vapour open. MPL1 can also be used to consolidate problematic surfaces and substrates. The primer’s gritted surface provides a key for a new suitable plaster to bond to. MPL1 is the only plaster primer on the market to be independently tested for vapour diffusion to reassure you that water vapour is not trapped in the fabric of your building.

Some typical substrate types are masonry backgrounds, magnesium silicate boards, historic or new plasters (lime, cement or gypsum), wood, and wood type boards, terracotta and some ceramic tiles and paints.

Coverage
On an even surface 1m2 of wall will need approximately 0.5 Kg of Solo Primer.
• A 7 Kg tin will typically cover 14m2
• A 16 Kg tin will typically cover 32m2

Application

Stir well before use. Apply with a broad brush using short strokes and ensuring that the grit is evenly spread across the surface (see typical spread pattern below). The surface to be primed must be sound and dry. Where the surface is powdery or friable, work the primer in to the affected areas with a brush and test for bond strength after 24 hours.

Ensure that surfaces not to be primed are protected, particularly glass. Wash splashes, tools and brushes with water. Do not store or use in extremes of temperatures. The primer can be plastered after 24 hours. Ensure that the plaster is appropriate to the task.
