TWO COMPONENT PRIMER FOR POLYSULPHIDE / POLYURETHANE SEALANTS
Sealants are used to seal joints and openings (gaps) between two or more substrates, and are a critical component for building design and construction. The main purpose of sealants is to prevent air, water, and other environmental elements from entering or exiting a structure while permitting limited movement of the substrates. PolySeal P - 11 is a two component epoxy system with adhesion promoting ingredients. The low viscosity primer facilitates proper bonding of sealants with concrete, steel surface, aluminium and glass.
ADVANTAGES
• Low viscosity and easy to apply.
• High penetration to concrete surface.
• High wetting property for non porous surface.
APPLICATION
• Concrete joints
• Aluminium / steel to concrete gaps
• Glass - Aluminium cavity
APPLICATION METHODOLOGY
• Ensure that the surface is sound, free from dust, laitance and other contaminants.
• Ensure thorough surface preparation, preferably by mechanically scarifying, grit / sand blasting, and removing of all laitance, loose particles and contaminants.
• Remove oil / grease etc by using 60 grit sand paper and roughen the surface to a 3-4 mill profile. Mechanical method may also be followed.
• Add the entire contents of the Component B to Component A and mix thoroughly for 3 minutes using a slow speed drill ( 400 - 500 rpm) fitted with a suitable mixing paddle till homogeneous mix is achieved.
• Apply the mix onto the surface using a brush or roller.
• Allow it to dry for 30 minutes, when tacky, apply Sealant – Polysulphide or Polyurethane - on the primed surface.
• If the sealant is not applied on the primed surface (while primed surface is tack free), re-prime is mandatory before use the sealant.

HEALTH & SAFETY
• Avoid swallowing and contact with skin / eyes. If swallowed, seek medical attention immediately. Do not induce vomiting.
• In the unlikely event of contact with skin, rinse with plenty of clean water and then cleanse with soap and water. Do not use solvent to clean the contacted area
• Ensure adequate ventilation and avoid inhalation of vapours.
• Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye protection during application.
• In the unlikely event of fire, use carbon-di-oxide or dry powder to extinguish fire.
