Crommelin positions it as a sealer, primer, undercoat and stain blocker in one product. It grips both porous and non-porous surfaces, seals off stains and gives topcoats a uniform surface to bond to. The manufacturer also describes it as a mould-resistant undercoat, which makes it a sensible choice for bathrooms, kitchens and laundries. It is designed to be overcoated with water-based paints and cleans up with water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere to use it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIndoors: walls and ceilings in bathrooms, kitchens, laundries and hallways, especially where steam, condensation or past moisture damage has caused staining or peeling.\u003cbr\u003eOutdoors: eaves and exterior walls and other masonry or timber surfaces that will be topcoated with a water-based paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuitable surfaces include plasterboard, brick, concrete and concrete blocks, cement sheeting, render, masonry, timber, plywood, particleboard and suitably prepared steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMake sure the surface is clean, dry, sound and free of dust, grease, loose paint and mould before you start. Stir the product well, then apply it with a brush or roller. Check the label for the recommended number of coats and the spread rate for your surface. Apply only when the temperature is at least 5°C. The retailer lists a recoat time of about 120 minutes. Clean brushes, rollers and tools with water straight after use, before the product dries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis product is not tintable and is supplied in white only. Crommelin advises it is not suitable over white set plaster and should not be used as a base before tiling. It is a primer and undercoat, not a decorative finish, so topcoat it with a water-based paint. Surface and weather conditions affect drying and performance, so test a small area first on unusual or heavily stained substrates. Check the label for full application details.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCrommelin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAquaBlock Waterproof Primer Undercoat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1L tin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite (not tintable)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWater-based\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApplication\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrush or roller\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCoverage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 to 14 m² per litre (retailer figure; check the label)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecoat time\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAbout 120 minutes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMinimum application temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5°C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClean up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWater\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTopcoat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWater-based paints\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUse\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInterior and exterior\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSafety\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEven so, avoid contact with skin and eyes, wear suitable protective clothing and gloves, and use it in a well-ventilated area.
