Characteristics
Ames® Super Primer™ is an acrylic plastic sealant, primer
and adhesive for concrete, stucco, cement block, tile, brick,
chimney, wood, metal, and many hard-to-stick surfaces. It
penetrates deeply into the surface to bind together the
molecules of the surface it is being applied to. Rotting and
deteriorating surfaces can be restored to a somewhat new
condition and often the surface life can be extended for one
or more years of usefulness.
