Whether you’re working on bathrooms, wet rooms, utility spaces, or high-humidity environments, this versatile primer enhances the performance of your entire installation by creating a strong, water-resistant bond between the substrate and tile adhesives or membranes.

A key component of the AquaTank Waterproofing Kit, this premium primer is also sold separately for professionals who need a reliable stand-alone solution for wall and floor surface preparation.

Key Features & Benefits

• Triple-Action Formula
  Functions as a water-resistant primer, bonding agent, and flexi-additive to improve adhesion, flexibility, and long-term durability of your substrate.

• Superior Water Resistance
  Seals and stabilises porous or moisture-sensitive surfaces including plasterboard, concrete, screeds, cement-based boards, and patching mortars. Ideal for areas with constant water exposure or condensation.

• Enhanced Adhesion
  Promotes a strong, uniform bond for tanking membranes, tile adhesives, and finishing products – reducing the risk of failure or water ingress.

• Improves Substrate Performance
  Strengthens the substrate, increases flexibility, and reduces the risk of cracking – essential for wet areas, underfloor heating zones, and wooden substrates prone to movement.

• Quick-Drying & Easy to Apply
  Apply with brush or roller. Dries within 1–2 hours depending on conditions, so you can begin tanking or tiling quickly with minimal downtime.

• High Coverage & Cost-Effective
  Each litre covers approximately 6–8m², depending on substrate porosity, making it a cost-effective solution for large or small projects.
