FAQs Frequently Asked Questions and Answers:

1. What makes 506 Contractors PVA different from other PVA products?
   Specially formulated for professional use, offering exceptional strength and versatility across multiple applications. It provides superior adhesion, seals porous surfaces effectively, and enhances the workability of cement-based materials when used as an admixture. Its 5-litre size is cost-effective for medium to large-scale projects, making it ideal for contractors and DIY enthusiasts alike.

2. Can this product be used as a primer for painting?
   Yes, Contractors PVA 506 is an excellent primer for preparing surfaces before painting. When diluted (typically at a 1:4 ratio with water), it reduces porosity and creates a smooth, sealed base that improves paint adhesion and coverage. This makes it particularly effective for porous surfaces like plaster and concrete.

3. Is it suitable for bonding new plaster to old plaster or other surfaces?
   Absolutely. As a bonding agent, this PVA ensures a strong, durable bond between new plaster and existing substrates, including old plaster, concrete, and masonry. Apply it undiluted to the surface, allow it to become tacky, and then apply the new plaster for best results.

4. How does it enhance mortar, screeds, and renders when used as an admixture?
   When added to mortar, screeds, or renders, Everbuild 506 PVA improves flexibility, reduces shrinkage, and enhances adhesion to the substrate. This makes the mixture more workable, less prone to cracking, and capable of delivering long-lasting durability, especially in demanding conditions.

5. Can it be used in damp environments such as bathrooms or basements?
   Yes, its sealing and adhesion properties make it suitable for damp environments like bathrooms, kitchens, or basements. When used to seal surfaces, it prevents excessive moisture absorption and ensures that subsequent layers, such as tiles or plaster, adhere firmly.

6. How do I use it for sealing porous surfaces like concrete or plaster?
   To seal porous surfaces, dilute 506 Contractors PVA with water (typically at a 1:4 ratio) and apply it evenly using a brush or roller. This reduces surface porosity, prevents dusting, and creates a solid base for tiling, plastering, or painting. Allow it to dry fully before proceeding with the next step in your project.

7. Can it be used as a general-purpose adhesive?
   Yes, this product can also function as a general-purpose adhesive for tasks such as bonding wood, paper, and light materials. However, it is primarily designed for construction and renovation tasks, including bonding screeds, tiles, and renders to substrates.

8. Why is it a cost-effective choice for contractors and professionals?
   The 5-litre size is ideal for regular use on medium to large-scale projects, minimizing the need for frequent restocking. Its multi-purpose functionality eliminates the need to purchase separate primers, sealers, and bonding agents, saving time and money while ensuring consistent, professional results on every task.
