Know before you buy
Yes, this primer is essential if you are using seam tape to join EPDM liner panels. It cleans the surface and chemically prepares the rubber to ensure a secure, watertight bond that won't fail over time.
The 1-gallon container provides significant coverage, as the primer covers approximately 25 linear feet per quart. Calculate your total seam length to determine if one gallon is sufficient for your specific pond dimensions.
For the best results, use a dedicated scrubber pad to apply the primer to the EPDM surface. This helps clean the material effectively and ensures an even application before you apply your seam tape.
You should wait for the primer to reach a 'flash-off' state, which is a quick drying period where the solvent evaporates. Once the surface is no longer wet to the touch but remains tacky, it is ready for the tape.
No, this product is specifically formulated for EPDM rubber liners. Using it on other materials may not provide the necessary adhesion and could potentially damage the liner.
