PRIMERS/UNDERCOATERS/SEALERS
CLEAR WATERBORNE PRIMER - SOMAY Product No. 777 - SOMAY "PREMIUM" "PST" - PRIMER-SEALER-TOPCOAT - A Premium Quality, 100% poly-acrylic, waterborne, universal, all-purpose, exterior and interior, clear, non-yellowing coating that can be used as a Primer, a Sealer, a Waterproofing Coating and a Topcoat or Finish Coating. It has excellent resistance to ultraviolet (sun) light degradation, excellent adhesion to practically every properly cleaned and prepared surface, and dries to a hard finish that has excellent resistance to wear due to normal pedestrian traffic. No solvents, no fumes & exceptionally user and environmentally friendly. "PST" will NOT "blush" or turn "white" if moisture develops under the coating, but will remain clear. Because SOMAY "PST" will always "breathe", it allows moisture vapor to escape through the cured coating film. "PST" can be applied to concrete, stucco, masonry, non-glazed porous brick, stone, concrete blocks, coral rocks and other porous decorative facade materials, wood shingles, wood siding, wood decks, docks or porch floor surfaces, wood paneling (interior and exterior), metal including aluminum, copper, brass, zinc, galvanized steel or primed tin or ferrous metal. "PST" can be used on practically any well-drained roof surface, including wood shingles, split cedar shakes, asphalt shingles, fiberglass shingles, concrete tiles, clay tiles, barrel tiles, 90-lb. slate, roll roofing, etc. Over 20% Vol. Solids = 182 sq.ft./gal./mil DFT.

CLEAR SOLVENT BORNE PRIMER - SOMAY Product No. 7751 - SOMAY "PRIME & SEAL" - Primer-Sealer. A modified acrylic, solvent-thinned, heavy-duty, industrial strength, all purpose, clear sealer for interior and exterior use as a first coat, primer, undercoater or surface conditioner. Very effective as a primer on porous or chalky surfaces, including flat tile, barrel tile, concrete, masonry, stone, brick, wood, metal, asphalt shingles, slate, roll roofing and other surfaces. This primer enhances the waterproofing properties of elastomeric top coatings, and is recommended as the primer for SOMAY's "ROOF MASTIC" waterproofing coating system on asphalt based roof surfaces such as asphalt shingles, roll roofing, tar paper, etc. Also especially useful on buildings in the Caribbean, where masonry surfaces are frequently contaminated with salts, since SOMAY "PRIME & SEAL" acts as a chemical barrier to keep the salts from leaching out of the surface and attacking the surface coating. Maximum spreading rate is 200 sq.ft./gal, but can be considerably lower (maybe only 100 sq.ft./gal.) on very porous surfaces.

WHITE WATERBORNE PRIMER FOR WALLS - SOMAY Product No. 530 - "PREMIUM" 100% ACRYLIC LATEX SURFACE CONDITIONER & PRIMER for POROUS SURFACES (White).

Because of the unique oil emulsion in the formulation, Surface Conditioner & Primer will prime, seal, penetrate and help to bind light surface powder or chalk. This is NOT a substitute for proper surface preparation. Over 41% Vol. Solids = 663 sq.ft./gal./mil DFT = only 2¢/sq.ft/mil DFT.
