The primer for cementitious slurry, EASYPrime, is enhanced using polymers. This high-strength bonding solution is simple to apply when laying natural stone and porcelain paving. It ensures that the aggregated mortar in the bedding layer is fully and permanently in touch with it. Applications in public, business, and residential settings are appropriate.

The depth of the coated film, as well as the porosity and texture of the rigidly bonded sub-base, all affect coverage. A single 11-pound packet of EASYPrime, as a general rule of thumb, should cover at least 86 square feet.

How to use EASYPrime

Installation Guide

Before you start - The supporting sub-base should be stable and free from the risk of movement or heave. Allow for adequate falls and drainage from the finished surface. Extra precautions may be necessary to ensure the area is prepared properly. Certain types of tile and stone paving may be unduly porous and hence prone to surface discolouration. Natural stone and porous, un-glazed tiles are particularly at risk from permanent discolouration. To avoid this always carry out a small trial test, applying freshly mixed EASYPrime to a spare tile to determine whether staining is likely.

Step 1. Mix

Step 1. Mix

Add 2ltr of clean, cold water to the tub. Slowly mix a 11 lb. sachet of EASYPrime into the water using a powered paddle. Continue to mix for 3-5 minutes, creating a smooth, lump-free slurry.
Step 2. Apply

Step 2. Apply

Apply EASYPrime to the back of the paving to a thickness of 1-2mm using a roller or brush.

Top Tip! Leave an inch-wide gap around the edge for handling.
