Substrate Requirements:
- Clean the areas and remove all unsound concrete, grease, oil, paint, asphalt, tar and any other foreign materials that will inhibit performance.
- Substrates must be stable, solid and structurally sound.
- The substrate must be mechanically profiled by shot-blasting, sandblasting or scarifying to achieve a CSP 4 to CSP 5.
- After cleaning and profiling, test for MVER (moisture vapor emission rate).
- For applications over cutback adhesive residue, wood surfaces, non-porous substrates such as terrazzo, ceramic and quarry tile, burnished concrete, epoxy coatings, painted surfaces and metal, please contact Duraamen’s technical staff.
Priming:
- Paramol must be applied over the entire substrate that is at least at 50°F.
- For porous substrates, 2 coats of Param primer may be necessary.
- The primer is dilution @ 1:1 with clean potable water before applying it to the surface. Coverage: 350 - 400ft²/gal.
- The primer must be applied evenly with a fine hair push broom.
- Do not use paint rollers, mops, or spray equipment except over wood and metal (contact Duraamen technical staff for correct priming applications).
- Apply a thin primer layer leaving no bare spots, puddles or excess primer.
- Allow drying to a clear, thin film.
Important:
- Param 5500 must be applied within 24 hours of priming to ensure that a good bond is achieved between the primer and the substrate.
- The primed substrate mustn't be contaminated in any way before the installation of Param 5500.
- Coverage
Paramol yields 350-400ft² per gallon when diluted with water at 1:1 ratio.
