How to use?

Start by ensuring the surface is clean, dry, and free of dust or grease. For best results, sand any glossy surfaces to improve adhesion. Apply the Sikkens Rubbol BL Primer with a brush or roller, ensuring even coverage. Typically, one coat is sufficient, but for porous surfaces, a second coat may be necessary. Allow the primer to dry completely before applying your chosen topcoat. The coverage is approximately 10-12 m² per liter, depending on the surface porosity.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use this primer on metal surfaces?

While the Sikkens Rubbol BL Primer is versatile, it's primarily designed for wood and certain plastics. For metal surfaces, a specialized metal primer is recommended for optimal adhesion and protection.

How long should I wait before applying the topcoat?

Typically, the primer dries to the touch in about 1-2 hours. However, it's best to wait at least 4-6 hours before applying the topcoat to ensure the primer is fully cured.

How to use this primer

First of all, you always need a good preparation. You'll have to clean and degrease the surface, let it dry thoroughly and sand it if necessary.

Protect anything that shouldn't be painted, such as the window or wall, to paint tamper-free. Use tape and cover foil if necessary.

Next, apply Sikkens Rubbol BL Primer. The number of coats (the actual coverage) depends on what you are painting. Usually, you do need at least two coats of primer. Finally, you can finish with one or possibly two more coats of your favourite paint.
