Installation

Shown at the right is Paramol being used as a primer for a concrete overlay installation being applied over a residential plywood floor substrate.

Please read the technical data shoot, or consult a Duraamen representative for detailed instructions.

 

  • Paramol must be applied over 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 on the surface.
  • 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
  • Apply a thin primer layer leaving no bare spots, puddles or excess primer. Allow to dry to a clear, thin film.
  • Important: The concrete overlay must be applied within 24 hours of priming to insure that a good bond is achieved between primer and the substrate. It is very important that the primed substrate is not contaminated in any way prior to the installation of the overlay.
