A special sealer based on modified acrylic resin containing inert pigments. Its alkali resistant, thermoplastic, anti-carbonation and excellent penetrating properties make it an ideal sealer or primer for properties on or by the sea. Berger Luxatex Salt Inhibitive Primer is a unique primer, in its ability to be top-coated by both oil based and water based topcoats, such as Berger 404 Gloss Oil Paint, Berger Rustpro Anti-Rust Enamel and Berger WeatherProof Ultra Exterior Emulsion.

Surface preparation:

• Surface must be thoroughly clean and dry before painting
• Surface should be clean and free from dust, damp, grease, and contaminants
• Remove salt deposit
• Very strong alkaline surfaces may require two (2) coats
• Pressure-wash where possible
• Treat any fungi and algae before applying Berger Luxatex

Application Procedure:

• Luxatex Salt Inhibitive Primer may be applied by brush, roller or spray
• Can be top coated with Berger premium oil or water-based acrylic coating
• Coverage is approximately 5 – 6 m² per litre, but may vary depending on porosity of surface
• Touch dry – 1/2 hour
• Recoat time – 12 hours
• Thin if necessary with Berger No. 4 Reducer
• Wash Equipment after use with Berger No. 4 Reducer
• Luxatex Salt Inhibitive Primer dries to a smooth white finish

Tips: Follow label directions for recoating times. It is always better to have two thin coats than one thick hard-to-dry coat of paint.
