Uses
Ventilation
The table below summarises which Nitoprime product

should be used in different situations. Where multiple
choices exist, final choice will then depend upon the cure
times required and site conditions such as ventilation.
Where H.C.A. preparation techniques are used, only
Nitoprime 30 or 31 is suitable as primer.
Adequate ventilation should be provided with all Nitoprime

Primes. If only poor ventilation is possible itoprime 31 can
be used.

Description
Nitoprime 31 is used for flooring work with the Nitoflor
resin flooring range, it is also recommended for some
coating systems.
Adequate mechanical preparation of the substrate is vital

before any priming takes place.
Consult Fosams
Technical Sales staff for guide on substrate surveying and
preparation.
Mixing
Nitoprime 31 is supplied as two component systems in
premeasured packs. Empty the content of small pack
component into the large component pack and mix for 2
3 minutes using a slow speed electric drill and mixing
paddle, until uniform consistency is achieved. Do not mix
part packs.
Application
Nitoprime 31 is a two-part solvent free, general purpose

aromatic amine cured epoxy based primer. Particularly
suitable for normal weather conditions allowing sufficient
time to finish the flooring / coating application.
Nitoprime 31 should be applied by brush or short haired

quality wool roller. When applying by roller use suitable
roller tray to avoid primer ponding on the floor and to
reduce exotherm effects which will shorten the pot life.
Nitoprime 31 is designed for roller or brush application to

concrete substrates.
The primer should be applied evenly across the surface

avoiding thick layers which could result in air entrapment .
Temperature
The following drying regimes apply depending upon the

Fosroc product system to be used.
All Nitoprime primes should be applied at temperatures of

o
5 C or above. Use Nitoprime 32 for conditions of above
dew point. Consult Fosam Technical Department for
specific conditions.
All Nitoflor FC and SL systems, Antistatic and Nitocote EP

range, allow the primer to dry completely before applying
the flooring/coating product.
Physical properties
Nitoflor TF5000/10000, Cicol ET Slurry and Nitomortar HB

and S should be applied whilst primer is tacky.

Precautions
Package and coverage
Health and safety
Approximate coverage
Some people are sensitive to epoxy resins so gloves and a

barrier cream, Kerodex 71, Rozalex 9, Debba-Wet work or
similar, should be used when handling these products. If
contact with the resin occurs, it must be removed, before it
hardens, with resin removing cream such as Kerocleanse
22, and Rozalex 42 follow by washing with soap and water.
Do not use Solvent.
