only prime the back face and edges with sbr...no need to prime the face side.... thats using BAL flexible adhesives

So your preventing any ingress that may cause the ply to fail, then in turn undermind the bond then Dave ye ??

You have to follow thier guidlines tony.......ingress for me would be through the joints..and the face isn't primed with sbr..just the back face and edges..so this prevents moisture ingressing that way....SBR is good stuff like....
