Everflex Supaprime: A Technical Overview

Everflex Supaprime is a moisture-curing, polyurethane-based primer engineered to deliver optimal adhesion on both porous and non-porous substrates. With its very low viscosity and rapid dry time, this single-part formulation penetrates deeply into substrates, creating a robust foundation for Adheseal’s waterproof membranes and hybrid, MS, or polyurethane sealants. Supaprime resists mould and mildew in high-humidity areas, cures to a translucent film within approximately 1 hour at 23°C, and supports internal or external application scenarios. The ready-to-use format eliminates mixing errors, enabling faster site preparation and reducing callbacks.

Core Features & Specifications

  • Moisture-curing, single-part polyurethane formula with no mixing required
  • Fast tack-free time — dries to translucent film in ~1 hour at 23°C and 60% RH
  • Clear amber liquid for easy visual confirmation during application
  • Excellent adhesion to concrete, timber, screeds, render, cement board, and more
  • Low viscosity (30–60 cps) promotes deep penetration into porous surfaces
  • Application temperature range: 5°C to 35°C; humidity below 85%
  • Shelf life of 12 months when stored cool and dry between 5°C and 35°C
  • Coverage: approx. 5–10 m² per litre depending on substrate porosity

The Everflex Supaprime Advantage

  • Enhances bond strength for membranes and sealants, reducing failure risk
  • Ideal for site conditions requiring fast turnaround or limited downtime
  • Improves substrate compatibility, even over aged masonry or cement sheet
  • Reduces moisture-related adhesion failure in hot and humid climates
  • Supports both internal and external sealing and waterproofing systems

Best Practices: Do's & Don'ts

Do

  • Apply only to dry, clean, structurally sound substrates
  • Use mechanical surface prep like diamond grinding for best bond
  • Allow full cure (~1 hour at 23°C) before applying membranes or sealants
  • Store product between 5°C and 35°C to maintain shelf life

Don't

  • Apply if rain is imminent or substrate is damp
  • Expose the primed surface to prolonged UV without overcoating
  • Use on surfaces subject to hydrostatic pressure — use Everflex VBS instead
  • Use solvents or acid etching for surface prep

Applications in Practice: Trade Scenarios

For Builders (On-site Installer): Concrete Prep Before Membrane

The Engineering Challenge

Builders often face variable concrete surface conditions. Dust, laitance, and residual moisture can all weaken membrane adhesion and result in costly call-backs or delamination.

The System-Based Solution with Everflex Supaprime

After mechanically grinding the surface, a single coat of Supaprime ensures deep penetration and substrate sealing. Coverage of 5–10 m²/L provides excellent prep efficiency with rapid cure time.

Best Practice Note

Use a roller for even film thickness and always confirm the primer stays visibly wet on the surface for 2 minutes before curing.

For Waterproofers (Remedial Specialist): Sealing Masonry in Humid Zones

The Engineering Challenge

Waterproofers operating in hot, humid regions struggle with mould growth and inconsistent substrate porosity on rendered or cement sheeting surfaces.

The System-Based Solution with Everflex Supaprime

Supaprime’s mould-resistant formula penetrates masonry and renders (cured for ≥4 days), improving system performance in bathrooms, balconies, or basements.

Best Practice Note

Always conduct a water drop test to assess porosity. Apply a second coat on high-suction substrates like Hebel block.

Frequently Asked Questions

What substrates can Everflex Supaprime be applied to?

Everflex Supaprime is suitable for both porous and non-porous substrates including concrete (cured 28 days), masonry/render (cured 4 days), cement sheeting, structural plywood (Type A), Villaboard, Hebel, and timber. Surface must be clean, dry, and contaminant-free before application.

How long does Everflex Supaprime take to dry before overcoating?

Supaprime typically dries to a translucent film within 1 hour at 23°C and 60% humidity. Membranes or sealants can be applied once the surface becomes tacky (not wet). Dry times may vary with substrate porosity and site conditions.

Can Everflex Supaprime be used in external waterproofing applications?

Yes. Everflex Supaprime is formulated for both internal and external use. However, it has limited UV resistance and must be overcoated with a membrane or adhesive system. Do not expose the primer film to long-term sunlight without protection.

What is the recommended method for cleaning tools after using Supaprime?

While still wet, clean tools and spills using acetone or xylene. Once cured, removal may require mechanical methods. Always wear gloves and PPE during clean-up, especially in confined or poorly ventilated areas.

How do I test if my surface is porous before using Everflex Supaprime?

To assess porosity, place a small puddle of water (size of a $1 coin) on the surface. If it absorbs within 2 minutes, the surface is porous. If the water beads or remains, it's non-porous. Supaprime is effective on both but may require a second coat on highly porous substrates.

Applying Everflex Supaprime: Enhanced Protocols & Best Practices

  1. 1. Surface Evaluation & Porosity Test

    Check that substrate is clean, dry, structurally sound, and properly cured. Perform a porosity test by applying a puddle of water (~$1 coin size) and timing absorption.

    Porous Surface

    If water absorbs in under 2 minutes, it's porous. These surfaces may require one or two coats of Supaprime.

    Non-Porous Surface

    If the water puddle remains, surface is non-porous. Apply a thin coat and test compatibility if unsure.

    Timing: Perform test immediately prior to application to confirm surface condition.
    Pro Tip: Mechanical prep like dry diamond grinding improves surface profile and bond strength.
  2. 2. Primer Application

    Apply Everflex Supaprime using a roller, brush, or spray to achieve full coverage over the prepared surface.

    Standard Method

    Use a roller to apply an even coat at approx. 5–10 m² per litre depending on surface porosity.

    Spray Application

    Spraying can be used on large, open areas with low-wind conditions. Ensure atomisation does not cause overspray.

    Timing: Surface should remain visibly wet for ~2 minutes post-application.
    Pro Tip: On porous substrates, a second coat may be required to prevent pinholes or suction loss.
  3. 3. Curing and Overcoating

    Allow Supaprime to dry until it forms a translucent film. Avoid foot traffic during cure time.

    Standard Cure

    Approx. 1 hour at 23°C and 60% RH. Humidity and substrate temperature may affect cure rate.

    Accelerated Cure

    Use forced air flow in cooler temperatures to maintain conditions within 5–35°C and <85% RH.

    Timing: Do not overcoat until surface is tacky-dry, not wet. Typically 60 minutes cure.
    Pro Tip: If rain exposure occurs before curing, re-apply primer once substrate is dry.
