DISSCO® 501 Primer
DISSCO® 501 Primer is a thin non-fibered asphalt base compound designed to be used as a primer for hot applied waterproofing materials and/or polymer modified rolled sheet products. It may also be used with almost any other product requiring an asphalt base primer. It is manufactured using the highest quality industrial grade materials available to produce the best primer possible. It is manufactured using industrial grade blown asphalts and slow drying aliphatic solvents that enable the primer to thoroughly penetrate the surface being primed allowing for better adhesion of the material being applied to it.
