Paintcor Epoxiprime and Catalyst
Paintcor Epoxiprime & Catalyst is a high‑performance amino‑cured 2‑pack epoxy primer designed for difficult‑to‑coat surfaces such as glass, tiles, pools, ponds, and damp cement. It forms a powerful osmotic barrier, promotes exceptional adhesion, and prepares surfaces for long‑lasting topcoats.
Description
Some coatings protect surfaces — Paintcor Epoxiprime & Catalyst protects the work, the effort, and the pride behind every project. Whether you’re restoring a swimming pool, sealing a floor, or preparing a surface that refuses to bond with ordinary primers, Epoxiprime is the quiet hero that makes everything else possible.
Formulated using advanced epoxy resin technology, Epoxiprime is a 2‑pack amino‑cured epoxy primer engineered to bond to the most challenging substrates: glass, tiles, epoxy, polyester, and damp (not wet) cementitious surfaces. It delivers exceptional internal strength, gripping the surface with the same tenacity as the concrete itself.
One of its greatest strengths is its ability to form a true osmotic barrier — a shield against rising moisture pressure that can blister, lift, or destroy coatings. In pools, ponds, and floors without a damp‑proof course, osmotic pressure can reach up to 20 mPA, enough to crack concrete and ruin coatings. Epoxiprime stands firm against this pressure, protecting both the substrate and the topcoat.
This makes it indispensable for pool renovations: Paintcor even notes that the number one cause of pool‑paint failure is osmotic blistering, and applying Epoxiprime before PoolCure is essential for long‑term success.
The primer is supplied as Part A (resin) and Part B (catalyst), which must be mixed before application. Once combined, you have 40 minutes at 25°C to apply before gel time is reached — a window that ensures strong curing and reliable performance.
Whether you’re a contractor, a DIY renovator, or a perfectionist who wants a job done right, Epoxiprime offers peace of mind, durability, and the confidence that your topcoat will last.
Perfect for:
- Swimming pools
- Ponds
- Floors without DPC
- Glass and tile surfaces
- Damp cementitious substrates
