Recommended Use

Impregnation Primer 5401 is designed for application on concrete and masonry and is primarily intended for roller and brush application. Provides a good key for adhesion on porous, mineral substrates prior to the application of several Rust-Oleum systems like; 9100, 5500, Pegakote, 9400 and can also be used as a tack-coat for 5180 Epoxy Repair Mortar.  

Surface Preparation

New concrete should cure and dry for at least 30 days prior to the application of the product.Remove oil, grease and all other surface contaminations by alkaline or high pressure- (steam)cleaning in combination with appropriate detergents. Remove all laitance, loose or unsound concrete by vacuum-blasting or etching with Surfa-Etch 108 Etching Solution. Remove concrete curing compounds completely. Large surfaces should preferably be prepared by abrasive blasting (vacuum blasting) or flame cleaning. Profile maximum 0.5mm. Defects in the concrete should be repaired with 5180 Epoxy Repair Mortar. Small (hair) cracks and air-pockets should be repaired with Epoxy Putty 5412. The surface should be clean and dry during application.  

Directions for Use 

Stir individual components thoroughly before mixing them together. Use a low-speed mixer in combination with the boxing method.  

Application and Thinning

Brush

Use natural bristles, longhair brushes. Thinning: Absorbent mineral substrates like concrete: Very porous: up to 20% with RUST-OLEUM 160 Thinner. Normal porosity: 10% up to 30% with RUST-OLEUM 160 Thinner. Power floated (slightly porous): 20% up to 40% with RUSTOLEUM 160 Thinner.  

Roller

Use medium nap, 12 mm, polyester rollers. For textured surfaces use long nap 14-18 mm rollers. Thinning: Absorbent mineral substrates like concrete: Very porous: up to 20% with RUST-OLEUM 160 Thinner. Normal porosity: 10% up to 30% with RUST-OLEUM 160 Thinner. Power floated (slightly porous): 20% up to 40% with RUST-OLEUM 160 Thinner.  

Cleanup
