Fosroc Primer 24 - Technical Details and Specifications

Overview

Fosroc Primer 24 is a specialized primer product designed for preparing excessively porous or friable concrete surfaces prior to sealant application. It serves as an optional surface preparation step to ensure optimal adhesion of subsequent coating or sealant products on challenging substrates.

Application Purpose

Fosroc Primer 24 is specifically recommended for use on:

• Excessively porous surfaces - Substrates with high absorption characteristics that may compromise sealant adhesion
• Friable surfaces - Weakened or deteriorating concrete surfaces with loose or crumbling material

The primer is typically applied before Nitoseal MB180 application. When dealing with porous or friable substrates, Fosroc Primer 24 should be considered as part of the surface preparation protocol to achieve optimal performance of the primary sealant product.

Product Classification

Fosroc Primer 24 is classified as:

• Primer product - Part of Fosroc's comprehensive primer portfolio
• Surface preparation material - Essential for porous surface priming applications
• Optional preparation step - While recommended for challenging surfaces, it represents a discretionary component of the application process rather than a mandatory requirement for all standard applications

Manufacturer and Availability

Fosroc Primer 24 is manufactured and supplied by Fosroc International Limited, the original manufacturer and trademark owner of Fosroc products. The product is distributed through authorized channels including Parchem Construction Supplies Pty Ltd in Australia.
