What is FUGA-PAVE Slurry Primer? FUGA-PAVE Slurry Primer is a polymer-enhanced, cementitious slurry primer designed to create a strong, durable bond between porcelain or low-absorption paving and the bedding mortar. It plays a critical role in ensuring correct adhesion when installing porcelain, natural stone, and other dense paving materials. When used correctly, the slurry primer helps achieve a monolithic bond between the tile or slab and the bedding mortar, improving long-term performance and reducing the risk of debonding. Suitable for Outdoor Paving & Porcelain Installations FUGA-PAVE Slurry Primer is suitable for a wide range of external paving applications, including: Outdoor porcelain paving Natural stone paving Concrete flags and slabs Clay pavers and low-absorption materials Patios, pathways, and paved areas It is designed primarily for external use, where correct bonding is essential for durability. Key Features & Benefits Polymer-enhanced cementitious slurry primer Designed for porcelain and low-absorption paving Helps create a strong, monolithic bond Fibre reinforced for improved performance Suitable for use on solid and hardcore bases Can be used as a priming slurry or porcelain primer Compatible with hybrid bedding mortars Suitable for professional landscaping and paving projects Coverage & Performance FUGA-PAVE Slurry Primer offers excellent coverage when mixed and applied correctly. Typical coverage: up to 28m² per 20kg bag Recommended thickness: approximately 2–3mm Coverage may vary depending on substrate condition, application method, and site conditions. Surface Preparation & Application Guidance Correct surface preparation is essential for optimal performance. Ensure paving units are clean and free from dust, debris, or manufacturing residues Remove loose material and standing water prior to application Apply the slurry primer to the back of the paving unit immediately before laying into the bedding mortar Following correct preparation and application practices helps maximise bond strength and long-term durability. Suitable Materials FUGA-PAVE Slurry Primer is suitable for use with: Porcelain paving and tiles Natural stone Concrete flags and slabs Clay pavers Low-absorption paving materials Part of the FUGA-PAVE Tiling System FUGA-PAVE Slurry Primer is designed to be used as part of the complete FUGA-PAVE tiling system.
