Larsen Primer Acrylic (5 Litres)

Larsen Acrylic Primer is a premium, water-based polymer emulsion designed for priming porous and difficult substrates before tiling or screeding. It is the ideal solution for sealing gypsum plasters or anhydrite screeds prior to the application of cement-based adhesives. Specialised for its ease of use, this versatile primer can be applied neat to seal highly absorbent surfaces or diluted for general-purpose priming, ensuring a professional-grade bond every time.

Why Choose Larsen Acrylic Primer?

• Improved Bond Strength: This primer is prioritised for enhancing the physical adhesion between the substrate and subsequent tile adhesives or floor screeds.

• Visible Coverage Technology: The formulation is specialised with a subtle tint, allowing for easy visual confirmation of coverage to ensure no areas are missed during application.

• Dust Suppression & Porosity Control: It is optimised to seal porous surfaces, preventing the substrate from "sucking" the moisture out of adhesives too quickly, which ensures the adhesive cures correctly.

• Versatile Application: Whether you are working with concrete, plaster, or timber, this primer is engineered to adapt, providing a reliable surface for both residential and commercial projects.

• Environmentally Friendly: As a water-based polymer emulsion, it is non-toxic, low-odour, and safe for use in enclosed bathroom and kitchen environments.

• Time-Saving Formulation: Ready to use straight from the 5L container for sealing, it requires minimal preparation and applies smoothly with a brush or roller.
