Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Surfaces should be clean, dry and sound before priming; apply 111AF evenly so the primer penetrates rather than ponds. Let it dry fully before applying mastic, coatings or membranes so the top layer bonds properly. Use on metal and masonry details such as walls, stacks and penetrations that will receive asphaltic materials.
Solvent-based asphalt primers are flammable and emit fumes; provide ventilation and keep ignition sources away during application.
