Solvent-Free Primer

TESCON® PRIMER RP

Advantages

  • Adhesion Promoter
  • No drying required prior to application of tapes
  • Deep penetration into the substrate
  • Application on damp surfaces is possible
  • Solvent free

Areas of application

TESCON® PRIMER RP is applied to porous substrates to prepare the surface for optimum adhesion of TESCON®VANA, TESCON® PROFIL, TESCON EXTORA®, TESCON EXTORA® PROFIL & TESCON EXTOSEAL®. Use TESCON® PRIMER RP to prime substrates such as timber flooring, concrete, masonry, fibre cement, plywood, oriented strand board (OSB), and other porous or friable surfaces prior to application of pro clima tapes.

Installation instructions

General conditions

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

  • Secure bonds: penetrates deep and strengthens dusty subsurfaces or friable subsurfaces
  • Saves time: no drying time is necessary on absorbent subsurfaces
  • More flexible work: use on dry and slightly moist subsurfaces

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

TESCON® PRIMER RP is an acrylic copolymer designed to penetrate and impregnate the pores of porous substrates to provide a suitable surface to bond pro clima tapes to. TESCON® PRIMER RP forms an essential part of your tool kit when installing air barrier systems. Made from copolymers it maintains excellent adhesion for a secure and permanent airtight seal of connections between pliable membranes and porous or friable structural components or mineral surfaces.

WEATHER EXPOSURE

This product is not designed to be exposed to the elements. pro clima tape is typically applied straight after or very soon after application. The product should not be left after priming for any duration of time which may result in dust collection on the primed surface.

APPLICATION NOTES

Although no drying time is necessary on absorbent surfaces it is often beneficial to wait until the product tacks to apply the tape the surface. This is typically a matter of minutes depending on temperature and humidity conditions at the time.
