GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Fast drying, water-based primer for use on untreated or machine sanded wooden floors in commercial, residential or sports areas.
By use of a primer the risk of side-bonding between the individual floor boards is minimised. Protective coats with one of Junckers' water-based floor lacquers have to be applied after priming.
Choose WB Primer clear for the traditional look or WB Primer colour to create a lighter or darker atmosphere in the room. A coloured primer is slightly transparent and emphasizes the natural grain structure of the wood.
For tropical timbers, oily woods and dark coloured patterned floors e.g. herringbone, best results will be achieved by using our solvent based primer, SB Primer.
WB Primer has received the Danish Indoor Climate Labelling and has therefore undergone extensive emission and odour tests. This ensures that there are no chemical substances in the lacquer which adversely affect the air quality in the room.
For professional and private use.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Untreated/sanded floors:
The surface should be clean, dry and free from dust, wax, grease, polish etc. Machine sand the surface to remove dirt and irregularities. Vacuum thoroughly and wipe off with a cloth well wrung in clean water.
The final sanding, before applying WB Primer clear, should be carried out by using sandpaper grit 120-150.
The final sanding, before applying coloured WB Primer, should be carried out by using sandpaper grit 150-180. This gives the lacquered surface a more uniform appearance.
- Apply 1 coat of WB Primer in an even layer.
- When using coloured WB Primer an additional coat can be applied to obtain more colour intensity.
- Make sure that overlapping edges on the lacquered area do not dry out during treatment.
- Do not apply more than 2 coats per day.
- When the primer is dry, sand with sandpaper grit 150-180 or a black screening pad.
- Finish with 2 coats of one of Junckers' water-based floor lacquers.
Previously sealed floors:
- Machine sand before applying WB Primer.
- Use sandpaper grit 24-36 to strip privious coats.
- Then remove abrasion marks with sandpaper grit 60-80.
- Prime the floor as described under “Untreated/sanded floors”.
