BIOKIL. Aluminium Wood Primer – solvent-borne primer for new & bare timber

BIOKIL. Aluminium Wood Primer is a solvent-borne blend of fine grade aluminium and high quality resin, formulated for interior and exterior use on new or bare timber.

It provides a barrier against the oily exudations of naturally resinous timber, can be used as a sealer on weathered creosote or smoke damaged surfaces, and is also self-knotting.

Key features

  • Barrier against the oily exudations of naturally resinous timber
  • Self-knotting – no separate knotting required
  • Can be used as a sealer on weathered creosote or smoke damaged surfaces
  • Formulated for interior and exterior use
  • Easy to apply by brush
  • Approx. 13–15m² per litre

Typical applications

  • Priming new or bare timber, inside and out
  • Naturally resinous and oily timbers such as teak
  • Sealing weathered creosoted surfaces
  • Sealing smoke damaged surfaces

Preparation

  • All surfaces should be clean, dry and free from loose and flaking material
  • Wash down oily timbers such as teak with white spirit and allow to dry
  • Avoid inhaling dust; wear a suitable face mask if dry sanding
  • Take special precautions when preparing pre-1960s paint surfaces, as they may contain harmful lead – contact our Technical Department for advice

Application

  1. Stir well before use.
  2. Apply by brush, paying particular attention to the end grain.
  3. Touch dry in 4–6 hours; recoatable after 16–24 hours.
  4. Remove as much product as possible from equipment, replace the lid firmly and clean equipment immediately after use.
