3. DESCRIPTION

TEC Skill Set Self-Leveling Underlayment Primer works as a

primer for TEC Skill Set Self-Leveling Underlayment and

other TEC Skill Set surface preparation products. For peel

and stick tile installation, primer can be used on dry, porous

concrete, gypsum cement underlayments and plywood. It

based underlayments, vinyl, concrete treated with certain

types of curing compounds (silicate or acrylic resin curing

compounds only) and well bonded epoxy coatings.

Key Benefits and Features

 Easy to apply with brush, roller, or push broom

 Enables installation of most floor coverings directly

to metal, gypsum underlayment, glazed tile (without

scarifying) and well bonded epoxy coatings

 Enhance the bond of Peel and Stick tile to porous

substrates

 Covers up to 410 sq. ft. per gallon (10.0 m

/L)

 Dries to a clear finish in 30 minutes to 3 hours

 Solvent-free
