When it comes to substrate preparation, it’s very important that all contamination are completely removed. Whether it’s grease, paint, dirt, dust, overspray – anything that can inhibit the bond of a product that you’re placing over the top must be completely removed.
A common question we receive here at ARDEX is “Will the primer fix the bond problem?”. The answer is no. The primer is only as good as what it’s adhered to. So, all contaminations must be completely removed prior to the application of the primer.
Remember, priming will not fix the bond issue.
