  • Color: Pale yellow
  • Pot life @25°C: 100-120 mins
  • Mixing Ratio: 100:50 PBW
  • Mixture consistency: Low viscosity liquid
  • Coverage: 4 m2/kg
  • Optics: Transparent/Translucent
  • Sealing minute pinholes
  • In between substrate & topcoat to enhance
  • adhesion
  • Structure strengthening
Surface Preparation 
  • Surfaces should be freed from laitance and dust by sand-blasting. In case sand blasting 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.
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 Primer – LVC used for?

A1. Mr. JO Primer – LVC is a two-component, low-viscosity epoxy primer and sealer designed for:

  • Priming porous or absorbent concrete surfaces
  • Sealing old, dusty, or rough floors before epoxy coating
  • Base coat before applying epoxy screeds, mortars, or underlays Its deep penetration, strong surface wetting, and dust-binding properties make it a top choice for ensuring long-term adhesion and durability of resin flooring systems.
Q2. How is MR. JO Primer-LVC different from MR. JO Primer – MVC?

A2.

  • LVC is lower in viscosity, offering better penetration and coverage
  • Especially useful on open-pore concrete and screed bases
  • Works better as a sealer coat for underlays and mortars, while MR. JO Primer-MVC is slightly thicker and preferred for smoother floors
Q3. What is the mix ratio of MR. JO Primer – LVC?

A3. The mix ratio is 100:50 by weight (resin: hardener). Accurate mixing ensures deep penetration and strong bonding.

Q4. Is MR. JO Primer-LVC suitable for use beneath epoxy screeds or underlays?

A4. Yes! LVC is an excellent primer beneath:

  • 3–5 mm epoxy screeds
  • Self-leveling underlays
  • High-build epoxy mortar applications It helps lock down surface dust, fill micro-voids, and provide an ideal bonding surface.
Q5. Is MR. JO Primer-LVC comparable to any industry-standard epoxy primers?

A5. Yes, Mr. JO Primer – LVC is functionally similar to Araldite GY257 with Aradur XY54, offering reliable performance in industrial and commercial flooring environments.

Q6. How should MR. JO Primer – LVC be applied?

A6.

  1. Mix resin and hardener thoroughly (100:50 PBW)
  2. Apply with a roller, brush, or trowel
  3. Allow to penetrate the surface and avoid puddling
  4. Proceed with screed, mortar, or coating after tack-free stage (4–6 hrs)
Q7. Can it be used as a primer before textured epoxy layers or covings?

A7. Yes. Its good wetting behavior and absorption make it ideal beneath non-slip toppings, coving mortars, and textured layers.

Q8. What’s the coverage of MR. JO Primer-LVC on concrete or screeded surfaces?

A8. Approx. 4–5 m²/kg, depending on porosity. Very porous surfaces may need a second coat or a thinned first layer.

Q9. What kind of surfaces can MR. JO Primer-LVC be applied on?

A9.

  • Old, dry concrete floors
  • Newly ground screeds
  • Under-repaired or rough patches
  • Any substrate requiring epoxy sealing before heavy-duty overlay
Q10. What if the primer dries too long before applying screed or coating?

A10. If overcoated within 24 hours, no issues. If it exceeds that:

  • Lightly sand the surface
  • Clean to remove any dust
  • Then apply the next layer for best intercoat adhesion
Q11. Can MR. JO Primer – LVC be overcoated with water-based coatings or hybrids?

A11. Generally, it’s recommended to use solvent-free or solvent-based epoxy systems on top. For specific hybrid systems, do a compatibility test.

Q12. How should I store unused MR. JO Primer-LVC?

A12.

  • Keep in tightly sealed containers, stored in cool, dry conditions
  • Avoid exposure to heat, frost, or moisture
  • Shelf Life: 12 months unopened
