Method of bonding silicone rubber to a primed surface

A method of producing a porous masonry or wood substrate having bonded thereto a silicone rubber which comprises (1) applying to the surface of a porous substrate which is of masonry or wood a coating of a primer composition comprising (a) a cyclised rubber resin, (b) from 0 to 40%, based on the weight of (a), of a film forming polyester resin which is compatible with (a), and (c) a volatile organic solvent, the solvent (c) comprising from 45 to 85% of the total weight of the primer composition, (2) drying the applied coating and (3) applying to the primed surface a room temperature vulcanisable silicone rubber composition selected from the group consisting of (I) compositions based on an organosiloxane polymer having in the molecule (A) silicon bonded oxime radicals, (B) a mixture of an organosiloxane polymer having silanol groups and a silane having at least 3 silicon-bonded oxime groups per molecule, or (C) a mixture of (A) and (B), (II) compositions based on (D) an organosiloxane polymer having terminal silicon-bonded acyloxy groups, (E) a mixture of a silanol-terminated organosiloxane polymer and a silane having at least 3 silicon-bonded acyloxy groups per molecule, or (F) a mixture of (D) and (E), and (III) compositions based on (G) an organosiloxane polymer having terminal silicon-bonded amido or amino groups, (H) a mixture of a silanol-terminated organosiloxane polymer and a silylamine or silylamide or (K) a mixture of (G) and (H).
