Sika MultiPrimer Marine
At a glance
- 1-component primer
- Colourless

Sika MultiPrimer Marine is a colourless solvent-based primer that reacts with moisture to form a thin film. This film acts as a bond between the substrate and the adhesive. Sika MultiPrimer Marine is specially formulated for treating bonding surfaces prior to the application of Sika's 1-component polyurethane adhesives and sealants.
Sika MultiPrimer Marine is used to improve adhesion to many metals, such as aluminium, steel, galvanised steel and non-ferrous metals. The primer is also suitable for materials such as teak, mahogany and cork. We recommend carrying out tests with the actual substrates under the actual application conditions to determine adhesion and material compatibility.
Directions for use
- Ensure that surfaces are clean, dry and free from grease, dust, oil, and other contaminants before applying Sika MultiPrimer Marine. Adhesion to the substrate can be improved by using or combining pre-treatment methods such as roughening, cleaning and activation.
- Apply a thin but opaque layer of Sika MultiPrimer Marine using a brush, felt roller or foam roller.
- The ideal application and surface temperatures are between 15 °C and 25 °C.
- Carefully reseal the container immediately after use.
Consumption and application method depend on the nature of the substrate and the production process.

The recommended application temperature range indicates the conditions under which the product can generally be applied and cured properly. Three temperatures matter:
- Air: the temperature in the workshop or outdoors.
- Substrate: the temperature of the surface being treated.
- Product: the temperature of the resin, adhesive or coating itself.
A cold substrate can cause condensation and affect adhesion. At higher temperatures, two-component products may react faster, reducing their working time. Check the dew point and follow the product instructions.
- 5-40 °C
-
The chemical base describes the chemistry of an adhesive, sealant, resin or coating, such as epoxy, polyester, polyurethane, (methyl)methacrylate or a hybrid polymer. It affects curing, flexibility and adhesion. Products with the same chemical base are not necessarily suitable for the same applications.
- solvent-based epoxy solution
-
The period for which an unopened product remains usable under the specified storage conditions. Check whether the period starts from the manufacturing date or another date. Shelf life may be shorter after opening, especially for products sensitive to air or moisture.
- 9 months
-
Solids content is the proportion of material remaining after volatile components have evaporated from a coating. It is stated as a percentage by weight or by volume (%); these are not interchangeable. Volume solids content helps estimate dry film thickness: with 60% volume solids, a 100 µm wet film will theoretically produce approximately 60 µm of dry film.
- Approximately: 34%
-
Consumption or coverage describes how much product is needed for a given surface area. Consumption may be stated in g/m² or kg/m², while coverage is often given in m²/L or m²/kg. A consumption of 0.2 kg/m² means a theoretical 200 grams per square metre. Actual use depends on film thickness, substrate absorbency, application method and waste.
