does tanking count as a primer

Tanking counts as a physical barrier between the substrate and the adhesive. I assume your implied question is "do I need to prime tanked surfaces?", and the answer is "no, you don't". Just make sure to follow the application guidelines of the waterproofing system you use. You may still need to prime before applying the actual waterproofing, in order for it to stick properly.
