Do I Need to Use Primer for the Waterproof Sealant?Updated 9 months ago

No, you do not need to use a primer before applying our Liquid Rubber Waterproof Sealant. The product is designed to adhere directly to a wide range of surfaces without requiring a primer. However, proper preparation of the surface is crucial to ensure the best adhesion and long-lasting results.

The Waterproof Sealant can be applied directly to clean, dry, and stable surfaces. This includes:

  • Metal
  • Concrete
  • Wood
  • EPDM and similar roofing membranes
  • Masonry

Surface Preparation Guidelines

For optimal adhesion and performance:

  1. Clean the Surface: Remove dirt, grease, oil, rust, and any loose materials using a pressure washer or scrub brush.
  2. Repair Damage: Fill cracks and holes, and reinforce seams with Geo-Textile Fabric where needed.
  3. Dry Completely: Ensure the surface is completely dry before applying the sealant.
