Cracks and voids must be repaired with a repair mortar such as FOX SLIM MORTAR FC105. Once the surface has been freed of dust and dirt, the product can be applied directly.

Application as Primer
Apply one coat of FOX MS BARRIER to the surface first. On surfaces that have been exposed to heavy moisture or where mould is present, a second coat may be applied after a waiting period of 24 hours. If surface irregularities are present, surface levelling with FOX SILK MORTAR FC125 smoothing filler is carried out at least 24–48 hours after the FOX MS BARRIER primer application. At least 6 hours after the levelling, FOX PRIMERA® FL220 primer is applied. Depending on ambient conditions, after waiting 24–48 hours, a breathable paint (FOX INOVA MATT or FOX INOVA SILAN) is applied. If there are no surface irregularities, the breathable topcoat is applied 24–48 hours after the FOX MS BARRIER primer application.
