Premera FP1 Fusion Primer
Premera FP1 Fusion Primer is a single component, spray on sol-gel based fusion primer that functions as a direct to substrate primer and as an intercoat adhesion primer. FP1 Fusion Primer creates a molecular bridge between a coating and the substrate, chemically fusing substrate and top coat. FP1 is very compatible with many surfaces, and many coatings, though water-based coatings are not compatible as top coats. When used on concrete, tile or existing coatings, as long as surface is clean and free of bond breakers such as oils, greases, etc., no grinding or surface profile is needed to achieve strong chemical bond to surface.
Features:
Removes the need to grind, sand or profile substrates or coatings before top coating
Provides strong bonding to the hard to bond or low/no profile surfaces
➢ 90 minute overcoat window. If window is missed, run a screen or light abrasion and reapply
Provides chemical bonding to substrate and becomes one with the surface they are applied to

Applications
Concrete is a great, cost effective material for a floor, but must be protected to maintain its appearance and allow for easy maintenance. Premera Sol Gels do not require grinding concrete in order to obtain excellent adhesion to a concrete floor, which significantly speeds up installation. Premera Sol Gels provide excellent stain and chemical protection, and are also highly abrasion resistant and easy to clean which creates a durable, low maintenance and easy-clean floor finish.
Premera Sol Gel Primers do not require any grinding or profiling of concrete to obtain excellent adhesion, significantly increasing installation speed of coating systems applied on top and eliminating clean up time from dust producing surface prep.
Polished Concrete - Polished concrete creates a high-end aesthetic that is great for show rooms and other spaces designed to wow visitors. While visually appealing, polished concrete is easy to stain and etch, so it must be protected to maintain its aesthetic. Premera Sol Gels bond directly to polished concrete without the need to grind or profile which significantly speeds up installation. Premera Sol Gels provide excellent chemical and stain protection, and are also highly abrasion resistant and easy to clean which creates a durable, low maintenance and easy-clean floor finish.
Staining concrete is a great, relatively low cost and fast way to add a nice aesthetic to concrete floors. Once stained, the concrete floor must be protected to ensure longevity of the color, protect the floor from damage, and make it easy to maintain. Premera Sol Gels systems can both quickly stain concrete, and be applied directly over stained concrete without needing to grind or create a profile which significantly speeds up installation. Premera Sol Gels provide excellent stain and chemical protection, and are also highly abrasion resistant and easy to clean which creates a durable, low maintenance and easy-clean floor finish.
Coating concrete floors with epoxy is a great, low cost way to provide a color finish to a floor, while also lowering floor maintenance costs versus other types of floor finishes. Epoxy is typically top coated to protect from abrasion, and sometimes needs extra chemical and stain protection in certain environments. Premera Sol Gels can bond directly to epoxy floors without needing to grind or create a profile, and deliver excellent abrasion, stain and chemical resistance to maximize durability and ease of maintenance for your floor. Advantages of Premera Sol Gel Systems:
Premera Sol Gel primers can eliminate the need to grind or profile concrete prior to applying epoxy coatings to significantly increase installation speed and decrease time spent cleaning dust and other debris caused from prep.
Creating a metallic effect epoxy finish on concrete floors is a popular way to create stunning and unique aesthetic effects that will leave an impression on visitors. Metallic epoxy floors must be top coated as they are vulnerable to scratches and abrasion which degrade an otherwise amazing looking floor finish. Premera Sol Gels protect metallic epoxy floor finishes by providing a crystal clear, durable top coat finish that is highly scratch, chemical and stain resistant and very easy to clean and maintain.
Premera Sol Gel Primers eliminate the need to grind or profile concrete prior to applying the rest of the metallic epoxy floor system on top. Eliminating the need to grind or profile significantly increases installation speed and cuts down on clean up time from prep.
Creating a flaked finish on concrete floors is a popular way to create an appealing and durable aesthetic that goes beyond your normal solid color epoxy finish. Premera Sol Gels help protect flaked floor finishes by providing a durable top-coat finish that is highly scratch, chemical and stain resistant and very easy to clean and maintain.
Premera Sol Gel Primers eliminate the need to grind or profile concrete prior to applying the rest of the flaked floor system on top. Eliminating the need to grind or profile significantly increases installation speed and cuts down on clean up time from prep.
Vinyl or VCT floors are a great, low-cost flooring option that allow owners the ability to customize the look of their floors. While Vinyl or VCT floors are relatively low cost to install, they must be regularly maintained to protect their professional appearance. Premera Sol Gels can protect vinyl or VCT tile floors without the need to profile the existing finish. Premera Sol Gels provide a matte or gloss finish with excellent abrasion, stain and chemical resistance that can hold a glossy finish for far longer than any wax on the market and significantly cut down on maintenance cycle cost and frequency.
Stone and tile floors make an impact on visitors and can create a durable high-end feel to any space. While they can enhance the aesthetic of a floor, they must also be regularly maintained to protect their high-end finish. Premera Sol Gels can bond directly to stone and tile without the need to grind or profile, and deliver a gloss or matte finish with excellent abrasion, stain and chemical resistance that is very easy to clean and maintain.
Removing stone or tile floors can be highly labor intensive should owners want to change their floors to a resinous flooring system or create a different aesthetic unavailable with tile. Premera Sol Gel Primers can bond directly to stone and tile without needing to grind or profile, allowing other coating systems to be applied on top and significantly increase installation speed.
While Terrazzo floors take a lot of work to install and are some of the most expensive floors you can create, they are elegantly decorative and are truly hundred-year floors. While long lasting, they must be regularly maintained to protect their high-end aesthetic and glossy appearance. Premera Sol Gels are able to protect the glossy mirror finish so sought after for terrazzo floors by providing a high glossy, reflective finish that has excellent abrasion, stain and chemical resistance in addition to being very easy to clean and maintain.
Premera Sol Gels do not require any profile or grinding in order to obtain excellent adhesion to terrazzo floors which significantly increases installation speed and cuts down on clean up time from prep.
