SkamoWall Primer is a breathable, mineral-based primer specifically designed to prepare surfaces—particularly SkamoWall calcium silicate boards—for finishing with SkamoWall Smooth Plaster or compatible mineral paints. This ready-to-use primer stabilises the substrate, reduces surface absorbency, and ensures optimal adhesion of subsequent coatings, while maintaining the vapour-open and capillary-active properties of the overall system.
Key Benefits:
✅ Promotes Strong Adhesion – Ensures an even bond between calcium silicate boards and finishing plasters or paints.
✅ Controls Absorbency – Regulates surface suction for consistent plaster and paint application.
✅ Vapour Permeable – Does not compromise breathability, allowing moisture to pass through the wall system.
✅ Ready to Use – Supplied pre-mixed in liquid form for quick, clean, and simple application by brush or roller.
Applications:
🔹 Primer for SkamoWall Smooth Plaster – Creates a stable, uniform base for finishing coats.
🔹 Internal Renovation & Restoration – Ideal for use in breathable wall insulation systems in old or moisture-prone buildings.
Technical Features:
- Form: Ready-to-use liquid primer.
- Coverage: Up to 50 m² per 10L tub, depending on substrate porosity and application method.
- Application Method: Brush or roller; apply evenly to dry, dust-free surfaces.
- Drying Time: Typically touch-dry within a few hours under normal conditions.
- Breathability: High vapour permeability – does not block moisture movement.
