AQUALIT – Filled-in primer (for dispersion interior paints)
The AQUALIT primer is a filled-in product based on dispersion and silicate binder for the proper preparation of a substrate for finish paint coatings applied inside buildings. It is especially recommended for “difficult” substrates of differentiated absorption and colour scheme (such as patched plasterboards). It is intended for substrate priming before applying dispersion paints: PROFILATEX, PROLATEX, OPTILATEX, TOP WHITE ANTI-REFLEX, OPTIMA, PERFEKTA, MILAMAT. To be applied on all typical, absorbent mineral substrates (such as plasterboards, gypsum finishing compounds, levelling compounds, as well as gypsum renders, lime renders, cement renders and cement-lime renders). Note: The primer should not be used for priming substrates with low wettability (such as dispersion paint coatings and plastic-based renders).

• Reduces substrate water absorbency
• Improves paint coating adhesion
• Strengthens the substrate surface
• Intended for all typical mineral substrates (especially on non-uniform substrates)
• Unifi es colour scheme of the substrate
• Easy to apply
SUBSTRATE PREPARATION: Substrate should be sound/stable (without scratches and cracks), degreased, clean and dry, and free of biological contamination and chemical efflorescence. In case of fungi growth, the substrate should be cleaned mechanically and then disinfected with fungicidal agent for interiors. Discolourations, nicotine stains and efflorescences caused by water stains should be painted fi rst with MILAMAT stain blocker. Any loose layers, not bound to the substrate (e.g., loose render or flaked coatings), should be removed. Old and/or dirty substrates should be washed and degreased with water and CLEANFORCE cleaning agent. For particularly uneven substrates, first use KOMBI FINISZ filling compound, and then smooth out the whole surface with PROFINISZ smoothing compound. Small unevenness can be smoothed right away with PROFINISZ smoothing compound. Absorbent substrates should be primed with BUDOGRUNT WG prior to applying smoothing compounds and/or renders. If the product is applied on new mineral substrates (e.g., cement render and cement-lime render) – a minimum 2-week curing period should be maintained.
PRODUCT PREPARATION: The packaging contains a ready-to-use product. It cannot be diluted.
APPLICATION: The product should be applied on the substrate in one layer with a brush, paint roller or by spraying (including also “airless” method).
DRYING: Typical drying time for the primer applied onto a substrate is approx. 3 hours (at air temperature +20°C, 55% RH). Closed rooms should be ventilated after priming.
USEFUL HINTS: Primer application and drying should take place at temperatures over +5°C. Tools should be cleaned with water immediately after fi nishing work.
