Product Description

UltraScape Pro-Prime Slurry Primer provides the bond between paving elements though can also be used to promote the bond between your road-base and the UltraScape Pro-Bed HS/Eco-Bed bedding mortar layer. Traditionally paving elements would be laid directly onto the bedding mortar, which with general wear and tear and increasing traffic load bearing, could result in costly and high profile failures. Pro-Prime helps to eliminate this.

The use of Pro-Prime in conjunction with UltraScape Eco-Bed ensures full and even contact will be made with aggregate particles as well as promoting adhesion to greater than 2 N/mm²
as per the requirements of BS 7533. The product is suitable for application in town centre pedestrian schemes, pathways and carriageways. Pro-Prime can be used with all types of natural stone, concrete flags and clay paviours.

Technical Details

Pro-Prime is supplied pre-blended in 20 kg bags. With the simple addition of water on-site, the product creates a liquid slurry paste, which can be applied to the underside of all paving elements at a thickness of 1 mm to 2 mm immediately prior to their placement on Pro-Bed HS/Eco-Bed.

 

Preparation

Correct surface preparation is critical in order to guarantee successful application and durable product performance.

• Remove all debris and ponded water from the supporting structure/road-base

• The road-base as well as the paving elements should be cleaned by brushing or washing with water to remove dust, loose material, packaging and/or production aids prior to the application of Pro-Prime

 

Mixing

• Place 7 litres of clean water in a suitable container

• Add Pro-Prime powder slowly and mix for 3 to 5 minutes to create a smooth lump-free slurry

• The primer should be used on the supporting layer/road-base immediately prior to the application of the laying course (Eco-Bed). Always prime the underside of paving elements at a thickness of 1 mm - 2 mm immediately before their placement upon Pro-Bed HS/Eco-Bed

 

Application

• All surfaces should be pre-soaked with clean water immediately prior to the application of Pro-Prime slurry primer

• The supporting layer/road-base should be coated with the primer at a thickness of 1 mm - 2 mm immediately before the application of Eco-Bed

• The slurry should be fresh and wet when the fine bedding concrete is laid
