Bone Dry Concrete Primer and Sealer Prepares Pervious Concrete for Protection

Bone Dry Primer is a colorless, non-toxic solution designed to create powerful alkali bonds. It reacts with Bone Dry product lines to generate a permanent moisture seal in pervious concrete structures. New alkali molecules boost bonding strength by filling wide interstitial gaps characteristic of pervious cement materials.

Pair Concrete Primer and Sealer for Comprehensive Protection

Bone Dry Original – Permanent concrete sealer protects concrete coverings
Bone Dry Plus – Permanently seals concrete with added anti-microbial protections

Combine concrete primer and sealer to prevent critical building material damage:

Microbe, mold and other organic growth
Latex, acrylic, urethane and water-based adhesive failure
Distortion of cement floor and block-wall coverings
Warping of hardwood flooring
Cupping of linoleum tiling
Peeling of carpeting

Comprehensive Sealing for Pervious Concrete Fixtures

Pervious concrete is an affordable building material requiring less cement than less permeable alternatives. Its unique moisture absorption supports various applications – reducing flash floods, rainwater pollution and water table depletion through proper rain absorption in streets and parking lots. However, uncontrolled moisture in homes and businesses can severely damage floor and wall coverings.

Bone Dry Concrete Primer Application Process

Apply low-viscosity Bone Dry Primer with these steps:

Saturate the pervious concrete surface using a hand-pumped garden sprayer for medium areas or an airless sprayer for larger spaces. Disperse pooling liquid on horizontal surfaces with a mop or broom. (Reapply if Bone Dry Primer completely soaks in under 15 minutes)
- Use only on unpainted surfaces – primer cannot penetrate latex, acrylic or polyvinyl paints
- Clean surfaces to remove oil, grease and acidic conditions
Apply Bone Dry Concrete Sealers when the primer reaches a damp condition.

Bone Dry Primer penetrates porous substrates deeply. Active ingredients fill small cracks, voids and interstitial spaces between matrix particles. These deposits react with Bone Dry to create a permanent water barrier.

Product Applications

Concrete primer and sealer work best for:

CMU walls
Extremely porous concrete
Shotcrete surfaces
Gunite applications
Cement block walls

(To ‘Fortify’ Concrete Block, Gunite & Shotcrete With Alkali Prior To Sealing With Bone Dry PCS)

Bone Dry Primer is a colorless, non-toxic, non-flammable, low viscosity, spray applied liquid formulation that adds alkali to porous substrates such as concrete block, shotcrete or gunited concrete prior to subsequent applications of Bone Dry PCS.

Product Description

Bone Dry Primer penetrates deeply into porous substrates where its active ingredients fill small cracks and voids and interstitial spaces between the matrix particles. These deposits will react with Bone Dry PCS to fill all of the small spaces within the substrate to form a permanent water barrier.

Advantages:

allows porous concrete materials to be internally waterproofed with Bone Dry PCS.

Limitations :

Bone Dry Primer is formulated solely for cement based building materials and does not effectively penetrate asphalt, metal or wood, brick or masonry
Bone Dry Primer will not penetrate acrylic or nonporous rubber based paints
Bone Dry Primer must be applied at full strength to attain the desired results
over application of the material may cause white deposits to form on the surface. These deposits should be removed by brushing and/or flushing with water prior to subsequent applications of BONE-DRY.

Composition:

Bone Dry Primer is a non-toxic, (water based) blend of inorganic suspended solids which extend throughout porous substrates to provide the additional alkali required to react with the Bone Dry PCS. Bone Dry Primer contains no organic materials or inorganic heavy metals. Bone Dry Primer is neither flammable or explosive and does not emit any harmful fumes.

INSTALLATION

Preparatory Work:
No preparatory work is generally required. However, if the surface is coated with heavy wax, thick grease, recently applied surface sealer, rubber or acrylic paint or other impervious material, remove such materials so that the Bone Dry Primer can reach the surface where it will be allowed to penetrate into the substrate. Accidental over application will not discolor the surface.

Method of Application:

Dampen surface to be treated (do not saturate) using a fine mist water spray.
Saturate the surface thoroughly with Bone Dry Primer at an approximate rate of 80 – 150 square feet per gallon, depending upon porosity of the substrate. Low pressure spray equipment, such as a hand pumped garden type sprayer works well for medium sized areas. For large areas, airless spray equipment is very efficient. Small areas can be effectively treated using a spray bottle.

Brushes or rollers are not recommended because of the low viscosity of the Bone Dry Primer.

Do not allow the Bone Dry Primer to pond or puddle on horizontal surfaces, as a white residue will likely form on the surface. Move the excess material from the low spots on the floor to the high spots with a squeegee, mop or broom. Any remaining material should be picked up with a wet vac or mop.

The time for additional applications can be judged by observing the time it takes for the Bone Dry Primer to soak into the substrate. If the Primer soaks in quickly, generally less than fifteen minutes after application, additional material should be applied.
Bone Dry Primer will not penetrate latex, polyvinyl or acrylic based paints.

Unpainted surfaces: Generally, no surface preparation is necessary.
For surfaces such as basement and outside walls,follow standard procedures as described above.
Oil, grease or acid conditions: Preliminary cleaning of the surface is necessary before Bone dry primer is applied. Heavy deposits may require scraping, followed by thorough cleaning with a commercial degreaser. After the surface has been cleaned, apply Bone Dry Primer until the substrate has been thoroughly soaked with the material.
Allow the substrate to dry to a damp condition before applying Bone Dry PCS.

Precautions:

Bone Dry Primer should not be applied to glazed floor or wall tile, or glazed or hard-fired brick where the glaze will prevent the penetration of the material. However, Bone Dry Primer may be applied over these materials if the intent is to seal the grout joints. In such cases, after the PRIMER has sufficiently soaked into the grout, remove all excess material from the surface with a wet vac, squeegee or mop. Wipe the surface with a damp cloth or sponge to remove any remaining film. This will greatly minimize the possibility of a white deposit or film from forming on the tile or brick.

Bone Dry Primer should not be applied to masonry structures having a mortar or grout containing a latex binder.

Bone Dry Primer should not be applied or stored at freezing temperatures. 45 degree minimum surface temperature.

If freezing occurs during storage, agitate the thawed material thoroughly to assure uniform solution.

During outside applications, care should be taken to protect vegetation and adjacent areas from direct spray or overspray.
