The Repair Materials:
Prime-A-Trate is a two component epoxy-based bonding agent designed specifically to enhance the bonding strength of Flex-Tec HV. Engineered to move with the natural expansion and contraction of soft and hard wood species, Prime-A-Trate offers outstanding long-term performance.
The ultra-low viscosity properties make Prime-A-Trate the ideal material for creating a high-performance bond to the open cell structure of hard and soft woods.
