Priming of pavement
Priming is a preliminary treatment before the application of a sprayed seal or asphalt surfacing on a prepared pavement using a suitable primer. Primers improve the bond between the pavement and the cover surface by penetrating the pavement.
SAMI research and development has resulted in specific primers for special applications. SAMI provides both solvent based and emulsion primers.
SAMIprime K2
Emulsion based penetrating primer formulated to penetrate and prime stabilised surfaces.
SAMIprime K2/P
Penetrating primer designed for use on concrete in confined areas such as tunnels.
SamiBioPrime
SamiBioPrime is an environmentally friendly prime coat emulsion. SamiBioPrime is a penetrating primer emulsion specifically formulated for use on compacted stabilised or bound base course surfaces (lime or cement), or on unbound compacted surfaces.
