Applications & Uses

Application Method
Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
Surface Preparation

Surfaces must be clean, dry, and free of frost, damage, releasing agents, including dirt, efflorescence, form oil and other foreign matter. Loose or damaged material must be removed by water blasting, sandblasting or mechanical wire brushing and repaired. Avoid application over irregular surfaces. Resurface, patch or level surfaces to required tolerance and smoothness with appropriate Tique leveling materials.

Pressure washing is a recommended means of surface preparation. Follow necessary safety precautions and adjust pressure to avoid damage to the underlying substrate or substrate condition. For mold, algae, and mildew removal, treat surfaces with a commercial mildew removal and/or wash product carefully following manufacturer's application and safety directions.

Mixing

Mix with a clean, rust-free electric drill and paddle to a uniform consistency. Close container when not in use. Clean tools with water immediately after use.

Application

Apply only to sound and clean, dry, properly prepared surfaces.

Airless Spraying - Use airless sprayer with minimum 19 mil tip. Use a starting pressure of 1900 psi and adjust as necessary.

As a primer - Apply at 4-6 wet mils per coat. Multiple coats may be required, depending on surface condition.

Curing/Drying - Time Times assume 70°F (21°C) and 50% relative humidity. Drying time varies with temperature/ humidity and surface conditions. Protect installed product from rain, freezing, and continuous high humidity until completely dry.

Clean Up - Clean all tools and equipment immediately with water. Cured material may be removed by mechanical means.

Coverage

800-1000 ft² (74.3-92.9 m²) per pail applied at 4 to 6 wet mils per coat.

Limitations
  • Use Tique Primer only when surface and ambient temperatures are above 40°F (4°C) and below 100°F (38°C) during application and drying period.
  • Store Tique materials in a cool, dry place.
  • Sloped surfaces: Refer to Tique details.
  • Tique Primer should not be used on horizontal surfaces unless protected with appropriate Tique Finish materials.
  • Do not apply Tique Primer to frozen surfaces.
