Asian Paints SmartCare Terrace Tile Primer is a water-based acrylic primer designed for terraces with porous and non-porous surfaces like china chips, tiles, old paint, and sealed concrete roofs. This easy-to-use hybrid primer offers strong adhesion and works perfectly with SmartCare Damp Proof, making sure it’s long-lasting waterproofing protection for your terrace.
Whether you're renovating an old terrace or starting a new waterproofing project, SmartCare Terrace Tile Primer is the perfect choice for you. Here are a few reasons why it should be on your terrace waterproofing list:
SmartCare Terrace Tile Primer provides exceptional adhesion on smooth and difficult surfaces like glazed tiles, concrete, and china chips, where conventional waterproof coatings fail. It forms a chemical anchor, ensuring a strong bond without the need for mechanical abrasion. This advanced tile adhesion technology helps prevent peeling, cracking, or detachment, increasing the life and durability of the coating. Additionally, its excellent recoatability ensures easy maintenance and future touch-ups, making it a reliable waterproofing solution.
This primer offers excellent flexibility, allowing it to withstand the natural expansion and contraction of concrete due to temperature changes. Many waterproofing solutions fail due to cracks caused by structural movement, but SmartCare Terrace Tile Primer adapts to these changes, preventing surface damage. This property makes it ideal for outdoor applications where exposure to heat, cold, and moisture can cause materials to shift. Its resilient film formation ensures long-lasting waterproofing protection for terraces and tiled surfaces.
Asian Paints SmartCare Terrace Tile Primer is a water-based formulation, making it eco-friendly and safe to use. Unlike solvent-based primers that release harmful fumes, this product has low VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) and does not pose health or environmental hazards. Being odour-free and non-toxic, it is perfect for residential and commercial applications, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment. Choosing an environmentally responsible waterproofing solution like SmartCare Terrace Tile Primer helps in sustainable home improvement.
SmartCare Terrace Tile Primer is formulated with advanced hybrid technology, which improves its durability and waterproofing efficiency. Unlike conventional primers, it does not experience surface de-bonding even after being continuously immersed in water. This makes it an ideal choice for terraces, balconies, and wet areas prone to heavy rainfall or water stagnation. Its long-lasting protection against moisture damage minimizes maintenance and ensures a strong, waterproof barrier over tiles and concrete surfaces.
This primer is designed for ease of application, making it suitable for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts. It comes in a single-pack formulation, eliminating the need for mixing or complex preparation. It can be applied using a brush or roller, ensuring a smooth and even coat. With its quick-drying nature, further waterproofing layers can be applied within hours. Whether you're preparing a surface for waterproofing or improving adhesion, SmartCare Terrace Tile Primer is efficient and hassle-free to use.
Proper surface preparation, repair, and application are crucial for effective waterproofing. A well-prepared and primed surface improves adhesion, durability, and long-term protection against water damage. Follow these step-by-step instructions to get the best results:
Before application, the surface must be thoroughly cleaned to remove oil, grease, wax, curing compounds, dust, and old adhesives that might affect adhesion. Mechanical methods like wire brushing or shot blasting can eliminate stubborn contaminants. Finally, vacuum-clean the surface to remove all loose solids and liquids. A clean, dry surface ensures that SmartCare Terrace Tile Primer bonds perfectly, providing maximum adhesion and protection. Proper cleaning is essential for long-lasting waterproofing.
All surface cracks must be repaired before applying SmartCare Terrace Tile Primer. For cracks up to 3mm, use Asian Paints SmartCare Crack Seal to ensure a smooth, uniform surface. If the cracks are larger (up to 25mm), they must be filled with Asian Paints SmartCare Hybrid PU Sealant. Proper crack repair prevents water seepage and ensures the primer adheres effectively. This step is crucial for preventing leaks and enhancing the longevity of the waterproofing system.
Apply a single undiluted SmartCare Terrace Tile Primer coat on the cleaned and repaired surface using a brush or roller. Allow the primer to dry for 3 to 4 hours before proceeding with further finish coats. If using SmartCare Damp Proof, follow the recommended application guidelines from the product information sheet. Proper drying and application ensure an even coating, enhancing adhesion and long-term performance. Clean all equipment with water immediately after use to maintain its effectiveness.
