PerfectPrimer Safely Encapsulates Asbestos Mastic in Concrete Floored Foyer
DESCRIPTION
A DIY homeowner in Madison, Wisconsin was refinishing the concrete foyer floor of their home when they ran into a problem: the black mastic used to hold down the original flooring tested positive for asbestos. Normally, this problem calls for bringing in an Asbestos Mitigation Team to safely remove the mastic. However, there is a much easier and much less costly, economical option: The PerfectPrimer. The PerfectPrimer is an easy to use low voc 2 coat solution, with each coat applied at an average 350 sq’/gallon.
Customer Review
“I applied your Perfect Primer product over black mastic (tested positive for asbestos) on a concrete floor. Very impressed with ease in application and clean up. Would highly recommend your product to others. Product is expensive but less costly than an asbestos removal contractor. The advantage of applying your sealant is the asbestos remains undisturbed.” -Kathy K.
PerfectPrimer Sealer is a one part, water-based solution that safely SEALS and PRIMES difficult and dangerous substances such as asbestos mastic, black mastics, cutback glue and adhesives, carpet glue, failed soy gels, and lead paint without disturbing them. PerfectPrimer Sealer then allows most decorative coatings to be applied on top including all acrylic and latex paints, epoxies, polyurethanes, urethanes, polyaspartics, both water and solvent based, decorative/leveling cements, adhesives and mastics.
When installing new floating flooring systems including new carpet, hardwood, linoleum, laminates and sheet vinyl recommend our companion product PerfectPaint Floating Floor Prep .
After using the included PerfectCleaner (included with all US based orders of PerfectPrimer and PerfectPaint) to properly clean the surface, our customer, Kathy, used one gallon of the PerfectPrimer to apply the recommended two coats to the foyer floor. After allowing 24 hours to cure, the asbestos was now safely encapsulated and she was able to apply a new flooring system to her foyer.
