What
is epoxy primer?
Epoxy primer provide excellent metal adhesion,
and also act as a proper base for extra undercoat and top coat products. Epoxy
primers are also commonly used to coat metal cans and containers, especially
those used to contain acidic food, such as tomatoes. It is applied directly to
concrete so that the surface is not affected by heavy materials and remains
durable for a long time. We at Zigma Paints Pvt. Ltd. , have pledged to provide you with
the epoxy primer solutions for keeping your walls, and floors safe, and clean
for long!
Epoxy primer provides warehouses, water
treatment facilities, shopping malls, marine applications, theaters, etc. with
the leverage to be safe for staff, inventory, and machinery. Epoxy primer paints provide a tough, durable protective
coating that is easy to maintain. Due to its unique properties, it is
rust-resistant, resistant to chemicals and easy to clean.
BENEFITS
OF AN EPOXY FLOOR PRIMER
Prior to
coating your flooring, there are numerous advantages to applying an epoxy floor
primer:
·
Epoxy
primers are thin and provide better adhesion as they penetrate into the
concrete substrate to enable better bonding.
·
When
using thicker epoxy base coats, primers have a stronger chemical bond. This
results in a longer lasting floor coating and a more durable one.
·
Elimination
of air bubbles and pinholes formed as a result of concrete outgassing
·
Ability
to achieve greater dry film thickness and uniformity of the coating since it is
not soaked in the concrete.
·
Effective
in providing concrete flooring with moisture resistance that has issues with
humidity.
·
For
concrete flooring, primers form a tenacious waterproof barrier that is devoid
of an effective Damp Proof Membrane (DPM) that usually results in virtually any
surface lifting and peeling of paint.
·
Most
epoxy primers are moisture tolerant and work well when applied to concrete that
has not been completely dried or etched with acid.
·
Some primers are specifically manufactured as oil blocking primers. These
solvent based primers are designed to cover concrete that has been contaminated
by oil and can’t be completely cleaned.
How
Epoxy Primer works on flooring applications?
The
foundation of your floor coating system is an epoxy primer. Without it, no matter what kind of epoxy you apply,
your epoxy system won't work as well. The layer that you will build on with
other base coats and topcoats is the epoxy primers. Usually, they are a bit
more forgiving and, as they are thin, allow for much more coverage. Unless you
use a single coat epoxy primer system, we strongly recommend that you use
an epoxy primer on all concrete surfaces to achieve maximum durability,
strength, and bondage that will lengthen the lifespan of your floors in turn.
By forming a
chemical bond, primers bind to concrete. What you're actually doing when you
mix your primer is creating a chemical reaction that initiates the hardening
process. To achieve a strong bond, epoxy
primers are formulated to seep into the pores of your surface. This binding
would not be as effective if you were to apply a primer on an unprepared
surface, which is why it is crucial to either acid etch and power wash or
prepare your floor mechanically so that the primer can bind properly.
