Best Practices for Dow Barrier Primer
-
Surface Preparation
Surfaces to be primed should be clean, dry and free from contaminants. Use an abrasive cleaning method and then blow with compressed air to remove dust.(Air compressors used for this purpose must be equipped with traps capable of providing moisture- and oil-free air.)
-
Application
Mix together equal parts of Parts A and B (by volume). After mixing, the primer should be used within 8 hours. Apply a thin, uniform layer by brush to the surfaces to be primed, avoiding contact with areas that will not be sealed. Allow the primer to air dry for a minimum of one hour before sealant application (primer should be dry to the touch). Sealant should be applied within 6 hours of primer application.
