HQC Stabilising Primer - 5L

Its main purpose is to seal and consolidate unstable, powdery, or chalky areas on masonry surfaces that remain after preparation, creating a solid base for painting.

No, the surface must be sound, clean, and dry before application for the primer to work effectively and adhere properly.

It can be applied to brick, stone, render, concrete, plaster, pebble dash, stucco, existing painted surfaces, and other friable surfaces.

Typically, one coat is sufficient. However, for extremely powdery or chalky surfaces, a second coat may be necessary after the first has dried.

No, the HQC Stabilising Primer is colourless and dries clear, so it will not alter the final color of your masonry paint.

You should allow the primer to dry completely, which usually takes 4-6 hours, but always refer to the specific product instructions for exact drying times.

This primer is specifically formulated for use with HQC Masonry Paints. It is recommended to apply two coats of the selected HQC Masonry Paint for best results.

Ensure the surface was adequately prepared and is completely dry. Very heavy chalking may require more than one application of primer. Check that you are using the correct HQC Masonry Paint as a topcoat.

This primer should dry clear and matte. If a sheen is present, it may indicate incomplete drying or an incompatible surface. Ensure adequate ventilation and drying time.

Apply the primer evenly, avoiding overworking it. Use a high-quality brush or roller suitable for masonry primers. Ensure smooth, consistent application.

This usually indicates the underlying surface was not properly prepared (not clean, dry, or sound) or the primer has not bonded correctly. Ensure all loose material was removed before application.
