Tileguard® Maxi Prime

The professional's choice for tough surfaces

Tileguard® Maxi Prime is a breakthrough water-based acrylic copolymer primer incorporating nanotechnology. It is designed to deeply penetrate oxidised cement roof tile surfaces and bind any free powder before top coating.

Its exceptional adhesion makes it particularly effective as a key coat for most rust-free metal roof surfaces and low porosity cement tiles.

Why Choose Tileguard® Maxi Prime
  • Superior penetration: Nanotechnology allows deeper penetration into oxidised surfaces
  • Maximum adhesion: Creates a strong bond even on challenging surfaces
  • Versatile usage: Effective on cement tiles and metal roof surfaces
  • Easy application: Designed for efficient airless spraying
  • Safe for rainwater: Certified safe for use on roofs that collect drinking water
  • 10-year warranty: Guaranteed professional results
  • Australian made: Formulated for harsh local conditions

Dry time: Allow 2 hours before next coat (24 hours for metal surfaces)

Coverage: 110-140 m² per 20L pail (varies by surface porosity)

Suitable surfaces: Cement roof tiles, metal roofing (rust-free)

Temperature range: Not recommended below 14°C or above 32°C

Composition: Water-based acrylic co-polymer with nanotechnology

Container size: 20L pails

Clean up: Water

  1. Ensure thorough cleaning with high-pressure washing and complete drying.
  2. Check surface temperature – if it’s too hot to touch, it’s too hot to paint.
  3. Cement tiles: Apply at 110 m² per 20L pail, allowing 2 hours before top coating.
  4. Metal surfaces: Apply at 120-140 m² per 20L pail, allowing 24 hours to key before top coating.

Step 2: Maxi Prime (allow proper curing time)

Step 3: Two coats of your chosen Tileguard® topcoat

Non-hazardous in dry film form and suitable for drinking water collection (disconnect downpipes for two good rainfalls before reconnecting). Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
