SILICON outdoor wall paint

Detailed description

Outdoor, air permeable facade paint,
which is premixed in the factory, contains silicon resin binder,
pigments, filler and property improving additives,
has a good coverage ratio,
high wear resistance,
good vapour permeability,
can be cleaned easily,
high quality mat paint,
available in the determined colours of the VARIO colour chart.

The REVCO SILICON facade paint is recommended for use on new and old mineral base plastering, lime sand brick and clinker brick surfaces, on dispersion paint having sufficient carrying capacity, and on resin plastering. It can be also used on mineral and plastic based thermal insulating systems. It provides a durable coating on historical buildings.

Technical information

Field of application

The SILICON outdoor wall paint is recommended for use on new and old mineral base plastering, lime sand brick and clinker brick surfaces, on dispersion paint having sufficient carrying capacity, and on resin plastering. It can be also used on mineral based thermal insulating systems. It provides a durable coating on historical buildings.

Characteristics of substrate

The substrate shall be free from dust and dirt, and the full layer thickness shall be dry. In case of plastered surface and concrete wall the substrate shall be solid. In case of old surfaces, remove the lose, damaged layers and paint residue, and scrape out larger cracks. The dispersion and glue pains not having sufficient carrying capacity and the salt precipitations shall be removed. Repair the surface defects with cement mortar. Use overlapping strengthening bands on cracks and joints of dissimilar materials. Make sure that the repaired parts have the same structure as that of the existing surface.

Preparing

Priming of the wall surface shall be completed 24 hours prior to the application of the paint. Take care to apply the primer uniformly and to make sure that the primer is entirely solid and dry. Check the colour and the data of production prior to starting the work. If buckets with different dates of production are found, then their content should be blended in a larger vessel prior to the application.

Priming

PRIMER with wall impregnating agent.

Required quantity: 0.1 - 0.2 l/m2.

Application of the primer can be done with brush or cotton roller.

Application

Tools: Roller, brush or spray gun

Spreading: Apply uniformly and smooth it in multiple directions.

Specifications

Required quantity:
In case of even substrate having no particular absorbing ability: 9 - 10 m2/l is recommended with thinning in one layer. In case of uneven structured surface having high absorbing ability: 5 - 7 m2/l is recommended with thinning in one layer.

The hiding power of the SILICON outdoor wall paint varies depending on the substrate. It is recommended to apply in two layers among normal conditions. Increasing thinning reduces the hiding power, as well as the adhesion and wearing strength. The quantity required for rough surfaces should be checked on site. We cannot assume responsibility regarding the required quantities. If the difference between the old and new colours is significant in case of strong colours, then application in three layers might become necessary, thus increasing the required quantity.

Thinning: Only if necessary: with max. 3 % tap water.

Colouring:
Available in the determined colours of the VARIO colour chart.

Temperature:
High humidity and low temperature of air hinder the solidification. Do not apply if the temperature is below +8 °C. Protect the material from rain and freezing until it is fully dry.

Total drying time: 6 h
The specified values are valid at a temperature of 20 °C and a relative humidity of 42 %. The application and drying times may be significantly longer if the weather changes (low temperature, high humidity content).

Overcoating interval: at least 24 hours.

Cleaning:
It can be cleaned with fine bristle brush and water. Avoid using of any detergent and cleaning agent. Tools and drops shall be cleaned immediately after application with water. Affected by frost!

Storing:
One year in original packaging at a place free from freezing. Carefully close the bucket after using.

Specific gravity: 1.60 kg/l

Density (at 20 °C): 1.55 g/cm3

Non volatile part: 65 % (m/m) (at 105 °C, 3 h)

Packaging: 10 l

Fire hazard class: Not flammable. Belongs to fire hazard class E

Permit: Kermi 2008/2-000314-1

Important

While drying, the agent must be protected from direct sunlight, draught, frost, driving rain, and temperatures above 30°C. Please refer to the label on the bucket and the technical information for the agent before application. Our technical specification is based on the premise that our products are used by trained professionals. The product and the information leaflet have been produced on the basis of our latest experience and knowledge, but this does not exempt the user from carrying out preliminary practical tests and colour checks. After starting the application, no complaints with respect to colour shall be accepted.

The colours on the sample materials are for information only; due to the differences in application and weather conditions, a complete colour match cannot be guaranteed.

Avoid contact with skin and eyes; in case of contact, rinse thoroughly with water and consult a doctor if necessary.
