    Applying Mapei Primer G

    I've been told to apply primer G neat, then someone else said 50/50 with water depending on the type of surface it's going on to as you don't want a skin to form. Then, dilute depending on how it's absorbing. How do u guys apply, or doesn't it matter that much?

    Granfix Csa

    Hi all. Got a small job on pumped screed that the customer has supplied Granfix csa. It states on the bag that no preventative primer needs to be used. Would that refer to a water dispersible epoxy and still need an acrylic primer? Thanks.

    Random Thought About Primer

    Most adhesive manufacturers express the need to prime all surfaces (in varying dilution ratios)...so how come we don't prime the backs of tiles? Just a random "thought of the day" ;)
