Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Apply primer to a clean, dry surface and allow it to dry per the manufacturer's instructions before laying Bituthene membrane; unprimed or dusty surfaces are a common cause of bonding failures. Stir or agitate per the product data sheet and use the low-VOC B2 LVC version where VOC limits apply. Estimate coverage from the listed 325 sq ft per pail and adjust for substrate porosity.
Use in a well-ventilated area and wear appropriate gloves and eye protection when handling solvent-based primers; follow the safety data sheet.
Order GCP Bituthene Adhesive Primer B2 LVC in a 5 gallon pail to prep your waterproofing surfaces.
