What is SabetoFLEX Recycled Primer?
SabetoFLEX Recycled Primer is a PIB-based primer for preparing difficult or porous surfaces before the application of compatible coatings or adhesive systems.
The product is based on polyisobutylene, PIB and naphtha, and contains recycled offcuts from SabetoFLEX roofing membrane processed through SabetoFLEX's recycling system. This makes it relevant for projects where adhesion, material compatibility and circular use of production materials all form part of the assessment.
SabetoFLEX Recycled Primer must be shaken thoroughly before use and applied with suitable ventilation, personal protective equipment and full regard for the safety data sheet. The substrate, porosity, material type and project requirements must always be assessed before application.
Product highlights
Areas of application
SabetoFLEX Recycled Primer is used to prepare difficult or porous surfaces before the application of compatible coatings or adhesive systems.
The product is particularly relevant where the substrate requires additional focus on adhesion, material compatibility or surface penetration before the next stage of the system build-up.
Typical applications include:
- Preparation of difficult surfaces
- Preparation of porous substrates
- Substrates where standard preparation is insufficient
- Projects involving a subsequent coating or adhesive system
- Applications where a PIB-based primer forms part of the system build-up
- Specialist applications on demanding substrates, including maritime or industrial surfaces
The substrate type, absorbency, condition, ventilation and project requirements must always be assessed before use.

How to use the product
SabetoFLEX Recycled Primer is used to prepare difficult or porous surfaces before the application of compatible coatings or adhesive systems.
Shake the product thoroughly before use to distribute the contents evenly. Assess and prepare the substrate before applying the primer as part of the selected system build-up.
The substrate, absorbency, material type, ventilation and project requirements must always be assessed before application.
Application notes
SabetoFLEX Recycled Primer must only be applied to suitable surfaces within the selected system build-up.
Ensure good ventilation during application and avoid contact with skin and eyes. Use appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety glasses and nitrile gloves where required.
Store tightly closed in the original packaging in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place, protected from frost and direct sunlight.
Always consult the technical data sheet and safety data sheet before use.
