NAME:
ENVIROCRYL 160-TB TANNIN BLOCKING WHITE PRIMER
DESCRIPTION:
ELPR160-TB is a universal water based primer with tannin blocking properties that provides an excellent foundation for any solid colour systems on solid wood, veneer, MDF or for refinishing as a 1K product. It offers fast dry times and is easy to sand. ELPR160-TB can also be applied over T9000 that has dried for 1-2 hours. It has excellent leveling and anti-sag for vertical applications and very easy to spray brush or roll. It can also be used as a 2K product by adding 5% CAT100LV Hardener. After priming, PR160-TB is suitable to be topcoated with Envirolak’s 200, 400 or 800 series and many other topcoats. Do not use 100 series over PR160-TB.
