#surface preparation
- Priming — The act of priming and its result; the process of preparing, initiating, triggering, or starting up a technical system, an electrical circuit, or a hydraulic pump. In construction, it represents the application of a primer coat to seal pores, while in molecular biology, it defines the annealing of oligonucleotides (primers) onto the template DNA strand to begin synthesis.
- Primed — Having undergone the process of priming; a technical system that has been initiated, prepared, or set in motion; a support surface (wall, concrete) previously treated with a coat of primer. In a mechanical or hydraulic sense, it describes a device or circuit from which air has been evacuated and which is ready to transmit fluid flow.
