Limelite Easy Bond - Breathable Plastering Primer - 5kg

Breathable, Salt-Resistant Primer for Plastering onto Smooth or Porous Substrates

Limelite Easy Bond is a pre-blended, breathable primer designed to enhance adhesion and control suction when applying Limelite plasters. It is ideal for use on smooth or low-suction substrates, such as dense masonry, stone, or previously painted surfaces. Its salt-resistant formulation also makes it suitable for damp or salt-contaminated areas, including basements and heritage restoration projects.

Key Features & Benefits

• High Bond Strength: Ensures effective adhesion of Limelite plasters to challenging substrates.
• Breathable: Allows moisture vapour to pass through, preventing trapped damp and avoiding re-emulsification under humid conditions.
• Salt Resistant: Contains a salt inhibitor to prevent surface efflorescence and minimise the risk of sulphate attack and staining on plasters from contaminated substrates.
• Rapid Drying: Reduces waiting time between primer application and plastering.
• Easy to Apply: Can be applied by brush or spray machine for efficient coverage.
