SikaWall®-08 Fijador

SikaWall®-08 Fijador — Fixing Primer for Porous Surfaces Before Painting

Before painting any porous surface, there is a step that many professionals skip and pay for later: the fixing primer. Without it, paint does not adhere correctly, dust is dragged from the substrate and the finish is uneven. SikaWall®-08 Fijador is Sika's solution for correctly preparing porous surfaces before painting — one-component water-based acrylic, solvent-free, ready to use. Available at Plana Online, official Sika distributors in Spain.

What is SikaWall®-08 Fijador Used For?

Fixing and Sealing Porous Surfaces Before Painting

SikaWall®-08 Fijador acts as a fixing coat prior to painting with three key functions:

• Consolidates the substrate — prevents loose particles from being dragged and detaching the paint
• Seals porosity — closes the substrate pores so the finish coat goes on uniformly, without absorbent patches consuming extra product
• Improves adhesion — creates the bonding bridge between substrate and finish coat, ensuring the final coating stays in place

Application Surfaces

• Cement renders — new or highly porous
• Plaster and plasterboard — highly absorbent surfaces that consume paint without primer
• Lime wash — dusty substrates with low internal cohesion
• Lime and plaster — alkaline and porous surfaces

Characteristics and Advantages

• Prevents dust drag when painting — substrate is consolidated before receiving paint
• Improves adhesion of subsequent paint — final finish is properly anchored
• Solvent-free — eco-friendly, safe for the applicator and the environment
• Improves performance of subsequent paints — less finish paint consumed per square metre
• Does not impair breathability — the wall continues to breathe after application
• Ready to use — no mixing or thinning required under normal conditions
