When to Apply Setcrete Acrylic Primer ?
You should use Setcrete Acrylic Primer on:
Absorbent surfaces: Concrete, sand/cement screeds, plywood, and hardboard.
Non-absorbent surfaces: Terrazzo, power-floated concrete, quarry and ceramic tiles, sound asphalt, well-bonded epoxy and polyurethane coatings, and minimal existing adhesive residue.
Coverage and Drying Time
Applied dilute to absorbent surfaces: 50m² per 2.5-liter bottle.
Applied undiluted to non-absorbent surfaces: 25m² per 2.5-liter bottle.
Drying time varies based on temperature, humidity, and subfloor absorbency.
Absorbent subfloors: 20–30 minutes at 20°C.
Non-absorbent subfloors: 60 minutes at 20°C.
Preparation and Mixing
Ensure floor surfaces are sound, smooth, and dry with less than 75% Relative Humidity (less than 65% for wood floors).
Remove any laitance or surface treatments from concrete and sand/cement screeds before application.
Subfloor temperature should be above 10°C during primer application, and underfloor heating must be off for 48 hours before and after.
For absorbent surfaces, mix 1 part primer with 4 parts water. For non-absorbent surfaces, apply the primer undiluted.
Apply the primer evenly and allow it to dry completely.
Tools Needed
A paint roller for easy application. Remember to wash your tools with warm water immediately after use.
