Grip Coat Primer (Fine)

Auro 505 Granulated Grip Coat is a problem solving primer for difficult surfaces. This preservative-free, granulated primer provides better adhesion for follow-up coatings on interior and exterior surfaces including mineral substrates, plaster, clay, concrete, brickwork, plasterboard, woodchip, vinyl wallpaper, and glass fibre fabrics. Can also be used on some interior latex (acrylic) paints or lacquer finishes after a positive compatibility test.

An excellent universal plasterer's grip coat paint with fine sized granules (0.05mm). If you prefer a more textured appearance please consider Auro 506 Granulated Stain Block.

This odour-free and low VOC primer can be applied with a brush or roller and then re-coated with all Auro wall paints and plasters.

On interior surfaces, one primer coat is sufficient. Prime exterior surfaces twice and then overcoat with Auro 344 High-grade lime paint.

Auro 505 grip coat is also suitable for priming surfaces before applying lime plasters such as Adaptavate Breathaplasta.

*Replebin is an innovative, biogenic binder. It has been developed by Auro throughout a long term and complex research process. Replebin consists of plant alcohol esters with organic acides. This modern binder is legally protected and only available at Auro.

Natural products are neither odourless nor emission-free. The use of organic, natural and plant based ingredients means that allergy and asthma sufferers and people who are chemically sensitive are much more able to tolerate Auro products, however they may cause allergic reactions in some.

Application

See the 505 Technical Data Sheet for full details, however in brief:

For previously treated walls

  • Remove, brush off, repair brittle surface parts.
  • Remove chalky, crumbling substances by brushing and solidify with Auro 301 Natural Plaster Primer, if necessary.
  • Remove sintered skin by sanding down, parting agents by washing.
  • Glue loose wallpaper seams, remove adhesive residues.
  • Remove badly adhering, non-adhesive, non-wettable or otherwise unsuitable old coatings entirely.

Applying the Grip Paint

  • Test adhesion to the surface if necessary (imperative on bleeding substrates like fibreboards).
