Description

MR. JO Eco Primer is a two-part, solvent-free epoxy primer. It is flowable, non-porous, and easy to apply. Moreover, it gives strong adhesion and protection. You can use it on wet, moist, and damp surfaces. Therefore, it is a smart choice for tough site conditions.

  • Good Adhesive strength
  • Good flowability
  • Sufficient working time
  • Good mechanical properties
  • Resistance to dynamic loading
  • Excellent water proofing properties
  • Suitable for underprepared substrate
  • Sealing minute pinholes
  • In between substrate & topcoat to enhance
  • adhesion
  • Structure strengthening
Surface Preparation 
  • The mixture should be applied on a clean and rough surface. For good results, it is required that the substrate is free from loose particles.
  • Suitable degreasing agent should be used to remove any grease, oil or traces on the surface.
Application Method 
  • Surfaces should be freed from laitance and dust by sand-blasting. In case sandblasting is not possible, thorough abrading with a hard wire brush should be preferable. Suitable degreasing agent should be used to remove any grease, oil or traces on the surface.
  • Mix the two components together thoroughly for at least 2 minutes so as to achieve uniform mixing and thorough consistency of the mix. Apply the mix using brush or spatula to the pretreated surfaces.
  • Allow 4-5 hours for surface to dry and 24 hours to achieve full strength.
Q1. What is MR. JO Eco Primer used for?

A1. MR. JO Eco Primer is a two-component, fast-setting epoxy primer designed for:

  • Self-leveling epoxy flooring systems
  • Projects with time constraints
  • Sites where fast recoating is needed It helps seal the concrete and provides basic adhesion enhancement, especially when timelines are tight.
Q2. What is the mix ratio of MR. JO Eco Primer?

A2. The mix ratio is 100:50 by weight (resin: hardener). It must be mixed thoroughly and used quickly due to its short working time.

Q3. How is MR. JO Eco Primer different from MR. JO Primer – MVC or LVC?

A3.

Feature Eco Primer MVC LVC

Dry Time

Fast (~1–2 hrs) Standard (4–6 hrs) Standard (4–6 hrs)
Viscosity Medium-low Medium Low
Moisture Tolerance Slight Low Low
Coverage ~4–5 m²/kg ~4–5 m²/kg ~4–5 m²/kg
Cost More economical Mid Mid

Eco Primer is best suited when speed and affordability are priorities.

Q4. Is MR. JO Eco Primer suitable for damp surfaces?

A4. It can tolerate slightly damp concrete, but not wet or waterlogged surfaces. Remove all standing water before application.

Q5. What types of projects or users benefit from using MR. JO Eco Primer?

A5.

  • Flooring contractors under time pressure
  • Self-leveling floor installers
  • Projects where fast turnaround is critical
  • Budget-sensitive jobs requiring a primer before overlay
Q6. What is the pot life and drying time of MR. JO Eco Primer?

A6.

  • Pot Life: ~15–25 minutes at 25°C
  • Tack-Free Time: ~1–2 hours
  • Overlay Time: As soon as surface becomes tack-free (generally <2 hours) Work in small batches and apply quickly due to its fast reactivity.
Q7. How should MR. JO Eco Primer be applied?

A7.

  • Prepare surface (clean, dry/surface-damp, dust-free)
  • Mix resin and hardener (100:50 PBW)
  • Apply using roller or brush
  • Recoat with self-leveling floor once primer is tack-free
Q8. Is a second coat needed on porous floors?

A8. On very absorbent or old concrete, a second coat may be required. Alternately, thin the first coat slightly to improve penetration and coverage.

Q9. What if I miss the recoat window?

A9.

  • If overcoated within 6 hours, no sanding needed
  • After that, light sanding or mechanical abrasion is advised for proper bonding of the topcoat
Q10. Can I use MR. JO Eco Primer under all epoxy coatings?

A10. It is ideal under self-leveling systems. For heavier-duty coatings, wet surfaces, or coving, consider MR. JO Primer-MVC, LVC, or UPS depending on conditions.

Q11. How should I store MR. JO Eco Primer?

A11.

  • Store in cool, dry, sealed containers
  • Avoid high humidity or direct sunlight
  • Shelf life: 12 months unopened
