MARITRANS TILE-PRIMER is a transparent, one-component adhesion promoter that chemically activates ceramic and glass surfaces providing excellent adhesion to the coating that follows. Solvent based. Cures by reaction with ground and air moisture.
Uses
The MARITRANS TILE-PRIMER is mainly used as an adhesion promoter (primer) for MARITRANS transparent polyurethane coatings on non-absorbent glazed surfaces like:
Glazed ceramic tiles
Glass
Glass bricks, etc
The MARITRANS® TILE-PRIMER can also be used in combination with other MARIS POLYMERS polyurethane coatings.
Advantages
Simple application.
Excellent anchoring to “difficult” glass and glazed surfaces
UV-stable
Quick drying
Consumption
30-80 gr/m2 in one or two layers.
This coverage is based on application by roller onto a smooth surface in optimum conditions. Factors like surface porosity, temperature and application method can alter consumption.
Application
Surface Preparation
Careful surface preparation is essential for optimum finish and durability.
The surface needs to be clean and sound, free of any contamination, which may harmfully affect the adhesion. Old coatings, dirt, fats, oils, organic substances and dust need to be removed. Maximum moisture content should not exceed 5%. Any loose surface pieces and grinding dust need to be thoroughly removed. Do not wash surface with water
Priming (Activation of surface)
For best results, the temperature during application should be between 5C and 35C, and relative humidity should be between50%and 70%. Low temperatures and low humidity retard cure. High humidity may affect the final finish.
Apply the MARITRANS® TILE-PRIMER by soaking a clean and dry cloth, and wipe the entire surface off. Change cloths often. By this application procedure, you ensure that besides the chemical surface activation, the surface is getting also very effectively degreased. Make sure that enough quantity of MARITRANS® TILE-PRIMER is applied on the entire surface without leaving any untreated spots.
After approx. 1-2 hours, apply the MARITRANS or other MARIS POLYMERS polyurethane coating.
