As the outdoor living season begins, it’s the perfect time to get patios, terraces, and garden paths in top shape. Whether you’re laying new porcelain tiles or natural stone pavers, BAL Priming Slurry Bond is the essential product for long-lasting, professional results.

Specially formulated for external use, BAL Priming Slurry Bond is a highly polymer-modified cementitious primer that provides superior bond strength between your slabs and the mortar base. It’s designed to work seamlessly with BAL Bedding Mortar and complies with BS 7533-4 standards—making it ideal for patios, pathways, and external hard landscaping.

Application couldn’t be easier: just mix with water and apply directly to a prepared concrete base or a Type 1 MOT sub-base. For maximum effectiveness, apply the slurry both to the substrate and the back of the paver, achieving full 100% coverage before laying into the wet bedding mortar.

Key benefits include:

      •     Excellent bond strength for secure, long-term performance

      •     Fast and simple mixing – just add water

      •     Coverage of approx. 8m² per 20kg bag at 2mm thickness

      •     Foot-traffic ready for grouting after just 6–8 hours

Plus, its integral slip resistance and proven durability make it a reliable choice for Irish weather conditions—rain or shine.

Don’t risk lifting or shifting slabs this summer. Ensure your outdoor installation is built to last with BAL Priming Slurry Bond, available from Ardex Building Products Ireland.
