Who This Product Is For

This primer is designed for paving contractors, landscapers, and experienced installers working with porcelain or natural stone paving in residential and commercial settings.

It suits projects where a strong, reliable bond between paving slabs and wet bedding mortar is needed to prevent issues like delamination or shifting over time.

Key Features

• High Bond Strength: Creates a strong connection between the paving slab and the base for stable laying.

• Easy Mixing: Mix with water for straightforward preparation.
• Wide Application: Works with natural stone and porcelain.

Practical Applications

The Sika Sikaceram 62 Porcelain Flowfix Paving Bonding Slurry Primer suits porcelain paving and natural stone installations. It also suits larger outdoor areas in residential and commercial settings.

How This Fits Into a Typical Job

This primer is applied during the slab installation phase, after surface preparation but before placing the slabs onto wet bedding mortar. It forms the bonding layer between the slab underside and the mortar bed.

After application, slabs are immediately placed onto wet bedding mortar, followed by jointing work once the bedding has cured.

How to Use

1. Surface Preparation:
   • Make sure the paving slab’s back is clean and dust-free.
2. Mixing:
   • Combine 20kg of primer with 4.4 litres of water until smooth.
3. Application:
   • Apply the mixture evenly to the back of the paving slab using a brush or roller.
4. Laying:
   • Place the treated slab onto the wet bedding mortar immediately.
5. Curing:
   • Allow approximately 72 hours for full curing.

After the bedding cures, finish the joints with a porcelain paving jointing compound.

Storage and Maintenance Tips

• Keep in a dry, cool place to maintain product integrity.
• Seal the container tightly after use to prevent moisture exposure.
• Regularly check the product for any signs of settling and stir if necessary before use.
