Acrylic primer for walls and floors

Overview
Technical Data
  • BAL Prime APD is a rapid-drying acrylic primer suitable for priming wall and floor backgrounds prior to the fixing of ceramics, mosiacs and natural stone tiles in dry or wet interior and exterior environments. BAL Prime APD stabalises dusty surfaces and reduces the porosity of backgrounds and may be used undiluted on plaster walls and plasterboard, tongue and groove floorboards and anhydrite screed floors. Use diluted on plaster walls (if dusty or porous) and cement floors.

    BAL Prime APD helps stabilise backgrounds prior to tiling in ultra-quick time, allowing for tiles to be fixed with a suitable adhesive in 15-30 minute and producing significant cost and time savings for your project. BAL Prime APD is suitable for a variety of projects including walls and floors, worktops, showers, heated screeds and areas with some movement or vibration.
