Properties

Matt acrylate water-borne paint for dry indoor areas.

• Excellent properties for indoor use: minimum content of hazardous substances and reduced content of volatile organic compounds (VOC), permissible EU VOC content for the product (subcat. a): 30g/L; maximum VOC content in the product: < 10 g/L
• EU Ecolabel number EE/044/001. EU Ecolabel confirms that this product has the most environmentally friendly properties, the minimum concentration of hazardous substances and the content of volatile organic compounds is reduced. More information: http://ec.europa.eu/environment/ecolabel/
• Provides a high level of opacity due to the modern technology which allows the titanium dioxide pigment to be replaced (the production of titanium dioxide is associated with high levels of harmful environmental emissions)
• Excellent wet adhesion to a variety of substrates, including surfaces painted with alkyd and oil paints
• Reinforced with wax, which enhances dirt-repellent properties
• Highest grade of wash resistance (Class I according to EN13300)
• Easy applications without dripping or splatter; easy to level out
• Almost odourless
• The paint does not give off harmful substances into the air and has been classified as emission class M1
• Dries fast
• Can be tinted
• Suitable for sensitive and allergic people

Gloss:

• matt (approximately 5) in accordance with EN 13300
• group 5 in accordance with RYL 2012

Wash resistance:

• class 1 in accordance with EN 13300
• group 314 of painting regulations in accordance with RYL 2012

Purpose

Painting walls and ceilings in most residential and office spaces (children’s playrooms, rooms in childcare facilities, studies, libraries, living-rooms, bedrooms, offices, stairwells, etc.). Not suitable for painting floors, doors and furniture.

Types of surfaces for painting

Surfaces previously painted with latex, alky or oil-base paints or new surfaces made of concrete, aerated concrete, gypsum board; brick; surfaces finished with putty or plastered and surfaces covered with glass fibre wallpaper or other rolled finishing materials. For interior use.

Surface preparation before painting

The surface to be painted must be carefully cleaned from loose or peeling material, dirt, grease and dust. If mould removal is necessary, use Biotol E or Biotol Spray Sandpaper durable alkyd substrates until they are matt and remove the dust thoroughly. If the surface is very dirty, wash it with EasyClean. Use a putty from the FILLER line to fill cracks, holes and uneven areas. Sand the filled surface to make it even and remove sanding dust. Prime filled surfaces with Aquastop or Tiefgrund moisture barrier to reduce porosity.  To reduce consumption, we recommend using Akzent Sky for priming. Follow the product instructions for use.

Application

Stir the paint thoroughly before application. Mixing tinted paint in one container is recommended. Apply 2 coats with a roller or spray gun  at the temperature between +10 °C and +25 °C and relative air humidity below 80%. When using a spray gun or for the application of the first coat, dilute the paint with water in the amount of 5% until it reaches working viscosity. Apply undiluted paint for the finishing coat. Avoid application in drafty places and at high air temperature (over +25 °C). When painting, make sure to keep a wet edge. If you must work in unfavorable conditions (drafts, heating devices, high temperature, low humidity), we recommend adding the TIME+ drying time extender (up to 3% of the paint volume).

Care for the painted surface

The coating reaches its peak wash resistance in 3…4 weeks; treat the surface with care until its hardness and wash resistance have reached their peak levels. If necessary, the surface can be lightly wiped with a soft sponge or cloth approximately 48 hours after paint application. We recommend using water and neutral or mildly alkaline detergents (pH below 9) for cleaning. Do not use organic solvents, abrasive detergents or stiff brushes and rough sponges. Excessive rubbing may make the surface glossy. Use soft sponges and cloths for cleaning. Wipe the surface dry after wet cleaning. Use Biotol E and Biotol Spray to remove mould.

Tools

Roller, airless spray gun, brush.

Tool cleaning

Wash with soap and water after completing work.

Storage conditions

Store and transport in a tightly sealed container at the temperature between +5…+30 °С. Protect from exposure to freezing and direct sunlight.
