Duram Bonding & Sealing Liquid Overview

Duram Bonding & Sealing Liquid is a solvent-based bonding agent and sealer formulated to prepare powdery and porous surfaces for painting. Its dual-action system penetrates deeply to bind loose material while sealing the substrate, ensuring excellent adhesion for subsequent coatings. With alkali resistance, efflorescence control, and quick drying properties, it provides a stable foundation that enhances the durability and finish of decorative paints.
