• Over cutback and other adhesive residues, over metal, and the mesh-reinforced wood subfloor system
• Use with ARDEX K 520 for high stress areas subject to forklift traffic

ARDEX P 51™

ARDEX P 51™ is a solvent-free primer for the installation of ARDEX underlayments and toppings over absorbent concrete.

Key Features

• For absorbent concrete, wood*, gypsum* and non-water-soluble adhesive residue on concrete*
• Concentrated primer – dilutes with water
• Seals the substrate
• For bonding ARDEX underlayments and toppings to appropriate substrates
• For interior use only

*For specialized applications and with select underlayments, ARDEX P 51 also can be used for priming wood, gypsum and non-water soluble adhesive residue over concrete.

ARDEX P 82™

A high-strength, solvent-free primer for the installation of ARDEX underlayments over smooth, non-absorbent substrates, such as ceramic, quarry and porcelain tile, terrazzo and metal decking, as well as wood subfloors and non-water-soluble adhesive residues on concrete.

Key Features

• For the installation of ARDEX underlayments over non-porous, wood and metal substrates and adhesive residue on concrete
• Waterborne, two-component primer
• Use for interior applications only

SIKA® LEVEL-01 PRIMER PLUS

Sika® Level-01 Primer Plus is a one-part, water-dispersed and solvent-free, acrylic-based solution used to prime and seal floor surfaces prior to the application of Sika® Level products.

Where to Use: Use as a primer for absorbent substrates including concrete and cement screeds. Particularly suitable as an adhesion promoter and surface sealer beneath Sika® Level products, enhancing the bond and integrity of the underlayment when applied onto porous substrates. | Suitable on OSB and plywood

Advantages: Can be diluted | Water-based and solvent-free | Penetrates substrate to reduce outgassing and formation of bubbles in the underlayment | Prevents water loss from the underlayment into the substrate | Quick-drying and fast film formation to increase productivity | Effectively seals concrete surfaces in a single, economic operation | Low VOC and low odor.

Packaging: 1 US gal. jug and 5 US gal. jug

SIKA® LEVEL-02 EZ PRIMER

Special Acrylic Primer for use on sound, smooth and non-porous substrates in interior areas. Applied prior to the use of Sika®  Level products on epoxy, ceramic tiles, old vinyl, linoleum and rubber coverings.

Where to Use: Many tight substrates like- terrazzo, ceramic tiles, natural stone | Old substrates with water resistant adhesive residues | Fully-bonded old elastic coverings | Old sealed/coated substrates | Epoxy moisture barrier | Metal | LVT, PVT.

Advantages: Provides optimum adhesion | No dilution required | Quick dry time | Low VOC | Solvent free | Suitable for application on subfloor radiant system | Low consumption of material

Packaging: 1 gal. pail
