Tikkurila Otex Primer is a high quality and fast drying primer that has been designed for using on multiple surfaces. Ideal for use on interior surfaces that require special adhesion such as glass, tile, fiberglass, PVC plastic and many more. Once it dries it provides a durable foundation for coats of both water and solvent based products.
The Otex Akva Primer is especially good for exterior window frames that have been painted with polyurethane or acid-curing paints.
Tikkurila Otex Primer is Suitable for using on glass, tiles, PVC plastic, aluminium as well as wood, fibre board and chipboard.

Clean the surface by removing any dirt and dust. Wash surfaces requiring special adhesion with Maalipesu cleaning agent and rinse carefully with water.
Sand the surface matte. Remove the sanding dust
Stir Otex Akva carefully before use and thin with water, if necessary. Apply with brush, roller, paint pad or spray.
On large surfaces, it is recommended to first apply the paint with a furniture paint roller, for example, and then level the coat with a brush.
We recommend the use of synthetic brushes with multi-branched bristles.
About a month after painting at the earliest, if necessary: clean the surface using neutral (pH 6–8) dish-washing liquid solution and a soft brush, sponge or cloth.
Soiled surfaces can be cleaned with, for example, a cleaning cloth or a sponge using a neutral (pH 8- 10) detergent. Rinse the surface carefully.
The product achieves its final hardness and durability after one month under normal conditions, therefore the surfaces must be handled with care during a couple of weeks. If the surfaces need cleaning soon after surface treatment, clean them lightly using a soft brush or a damp cloth.
