Description E•Z•PREP™ is an economical primer for general purpose applications. It has good adhesion to non-porous surfaces like oil based paints, glossy surfaces, vinyl wallcovering or existing painted surfaces.

 

Prominent Features

» Fast drying - one hour
» Splatter-resistant with low odor
» Tintable - up to 4 ounces per gallon

Uses Recommend to prepare an existing surface for hanging wallcovering. May also be used to prep new bare drywall for pre-pasted and Type-I wallcoverings. Compatible with all water or oil/alkyd based products and all ALLPRO® adhesives.

 

Limitations Not recommended for exterior applications or use in vinyl-over-vinyl applications. Ready for wallpaper hanging after dry - usually one hour for untinted product. Allow overnight drying if product is tinted.

 

Surface Preparation Surface must be free from grease and other residues, dry, smooth and structurally sound. Check surfaces for paint bonding, loose wallcoverings, damaged wallboard or plaster by cutting a small X with a sharp knife and attempt removal with a small piece of "Scotch" tape. Repair all unsound surfaces. Before proceeding with any unusual conditions, consult your adhesive or wallcovering supplier.

 

Application Use only when the room temperature is above 50ºF (10ºC). Apply a full-bodied thin, even coat of primer with a brush, roller, or spraying system. Do not dilute. Suggested settings for airless spray:

Pump: 45:1
Hose: 1/2" I.D.
Tip: .015 or larger
PSI: 2,100

Clean Up Before primer dries, remove the excess with clean water. Brushes and rollers should be cleaned immediately after use with warm, clean water.

 

Disposal E•Z•PREP is water based and does not contain organic solvents. Place empty containers in normal refuse for disposal. Contact your local sanitation department or household hazardous waste coordinator for information concerning possible reuse or disposal of unused water based paints, primers or adhesives.
