Cactus Industrial PMMA-Based Universal Primer

Cactus Industrial PMMA-Based Universal Primer is a solvent-free 2-component methacrylate resin system. It’s used in conjunction with PMMA-Based waterproofing coating, pmma-based self-leveling mortar, pmma-based top coat / sealer coat and anti-slip paint. A high performance multi-surface primer for absorbent and non-absorbent substrates. It delivers excellent adhesion on to concrete, cement screed, asphalt as well as tiles and metals such as untreated steel, stainless steel, aluminum, galvanized sheet metal and other non-absorbent substrates.

Safety Advice

Avoid skin and eye contact i.e. wear gloves, goggles, etc.; Ensure good ventilation, mechanical if necessary.; Store and use away from heat and flame.; Do not eat or smoke in the vicinity of work.; Wash hands before eating.

Application Methods
  • Brush
  • Roller
Equipment Cleaning

If work is interrupted or when it is completed, clean the tools thoroughly with cleaning agent within the pot life of the material.; This can be done with a brush.; Do not use the tools again until the cleaning agent has evaporated fully.; Simply immersing the tools in the cleaning agent will not prevent the material from hardening.

Practical Coverage

Practical coverage can vary considerably depending on method of application, surface roughness, weather conditions and complexity of the structure.

Application Details
For Mixing the Product
Twin paddle mixer, steel container.
Method of application
Brush, roller.
Surface Preparation

Ensure all areas are clean, dry and free from dust, dirt, corrosion and general surface contamination.; All oils, grease, etc. should be removed with suitable degreasing solution pre application onto any pre-applied PMMA.; Concrete and steel surfaces should be preferably Bristle Blasted/Grit blasted to SA 2½ in accordance with DIN 55929.; Non-ferrous metals must be cleaned and prepared by Bristle Blasting or Grit blasting.

Theoretical Coverage
3.3 kg/m².
Application Advice

Due to exothermic reaction with mixing process, please ensure the product is mixed in a steel container.; First stir the PMMA-Based Waterproofing liquid Coating with a paddle mixer thoroughly.; Then add the PMMA Catalyst while stirring the waterproofing liquid coating at a slow speed.; Mix for 1 - 2 minutes.; You must not dose less than the given quantity of PMMA Catalyst, as this will jeopardize the curing process.; You must also avoid overdosing the PMMA Catalyst, as this can likewise lead to serious curing problems.; The material must be applied as soon as the PMMA Catalyst has finished dissolving in the resin components.; The mixing time is about 1-2 minutes.
