Blue Dolphin Eco Concrete Primer: Water-based Acrylic Primer for Hard Floors

What is the Blue Dolphin Eco Concrete Primer?

The Blue Dolphin Eco Concrete Primer is an advanced, water-based one-component acrylic primer specially developed for hard floors such as concrete and microcement. This primer is designed to improve the adhesion of the topcoat and provides extra resistance, wear resistance, and durability thanks to its unique composition with mineral ingredients. The formula also contains anti-yellowing agents, making it the ideal choice for floors exposed to heavy loads and intensive use. The Eco Concrete Primer is easy to apply with standard paint rollers and is suitable for indoor use on both new and existing floors.

How the Blue Dolphin Eco Concrete Primer works

The Blue Dolphin Eco Concrete Primer works by creating a strong bond between the substrate and the subsequent topcoat layers. The primer should be applied to a clean, dry, and grease-free surface. For optimal results, the primer should be diluted with 20% water and then applied evenly with a microfiber roller. For highly absorbent substrates, a second coat of undiluted primer may be necessary after a drying time of 2 hours. After 2-3 hours of drying, the first topcoat layer (Blue Dolphin Eco Concrete Seal 2K HD) can be applied, followed by a second topcoat after another 3-4 hours. If longer intervals occur between coats, the floor should be lightly sanded to ensure good adhesion. The floor can be cautiously walked on after 24 hours, but it will not be fully cured and load-bearing until 10 to 14 days later.

Advantages and Properties

The Blue Dolphin Eco Concrete Primer offers several advantages, including excellent adhesion, increased wear resistance, and durability for hard floors. The primer is easy to apply and has a short drying time of about 2 hours, making it an efficient choice for projects with tight deadlines. The mineral components in the primer provide additional resistance to wear and help the floor look like new for longer. Additionally, the formula contains anti-yellowing agents, ensuring a long-lasting clear finish. The primer is economical in use, with a consumption of 10-12 m² per liter for the first coat, depending on the absorbency of the substrate.

Instructions for Use

Before use, the substrate must be completely clean, dry, and free of grease, wax, and dust. Dilute the Blue Dolphin Eco Concrete Primer with 20% water and mix well. Apply the first coat generously and evenly with a microfiber roller (9 or 11 mm). Allow the primer to dry for 2-3 hours before applying the first topcoat. For highly absorbent substrates, a second, undiluted coat of primer may be needed after 2 hours. Ensure even coverage and work wet-on-wet for the best results. After applying the primer and topcoats, the floor can be carefully walked on after 24 hours and is fully cured after 10 to 14 days.

Maintenance and Advice

After applying the Blue Dolphin Eco Concrete Primer, it is important to maintain the finish with suitable cleaning agents. Use the Blue Dolphin Multi Cleaner for regular cleaning and the Blue Dolphin Soft Balm as a special cleaning and nourishing agent. These maintenance products help keep the floor in optimal condition and extend the life of the topcoat. Store the primer in a cool place, in the original packaging, and avoid exposure to frost to maintain the product's shelf life.
