AKFIX PRIMER S80 STANDARD EPOXY PRIMER
1 – DESCRIPTION
Akfix Primer S80 is a two component, epoxy based, solvent free surface preparation primer which
creates moisture barrier on damp surfaces and penetrates to the cracks in the concrete.
2 – PROPERTIES
Excellent adhesion to damp concrete surfaces.
Easy application
Perfect resistance to water, freeze, humidity and harsh weather conditions.
Can be used indoor and outdoor applications.
Economical
3 - APPLICATIONS
It can be used before polyurea, polyurethane and epoxy coating applications for humidity and
water vapor prevention on damp concrete surfaces.
To avoid osmosis bubbles that formed via the effect of the pressure from the negative side.
4 – INSTRUCTIONS
Surface must be dry, clean and free of all contamination such as dirt, oil, grease, and
coatings etc. which hinder adhesion.
Surface must be firm and have enough strength. If in doubt, apply a test area before beginning.
Weak concrete must be removed and surface defects such as blowholes and voids must be
fully exposed.
All dust, loose and friable particles should be removed from the surface before application with
brush and/or vacuum cleaner.
A and B components should be thoroughly mixed for 3-4 minutes in order to
achieve a homogenous mix using a low speed electric stirrer or other suitable
equipment until a homogenous mixture has been achieved. After mixing, primer is ready for
application.
Spread the primer to the cleaned surface via a rickshaw, rub in to the surface via a liner brush
with caution and press regularly and evenly with a short pile roller. Completely cover the wet
primer with quartz sand (0,5–1,0 or 0,7–1,2 mm Ø). After the hardening, (before the application
on the primer) sweep the non-sticked quartz sands carefully.

9- IMPORTANT
Surfaces must have enough structural strength.
Concrete should have minimum of 25 N/mm² compression resistance and minimum 1,5 N/mm²
tensile strength.
Applications below 10°C should be avoided.
High temperatures lower the pot life of the product, while low temperatures extend cure time
and consumption.
Be careful about product mixing ratios.
The surface should be protected from moisture and rain for 4-6 hours after application.
All application tools and equipments should be cleaned with thinner immediately after the use.
Cured material can only be removed mechanically.
