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

Quality standards

EN 13300 [Paints and varnishes. Water-borne coating materials and coating systems for interior walls and ceilings. Classification] – classification standards of coverage, gloss level and wet abrasion resistance parameters for water-borne coating materials for interior walls and ceilings.
RYL – construction quality standard for finishing commonly followed in the EU area; describes coating materials, using generally accepted standards, for proper quality assurance in construction.
VOC (volatile organic compounds) – content in accordance with the European Union directive 2004/42/CE.
Product and service quality is guaranteed by the quality, environmental protection, occupational health and safety management system in accordance with standards ISO 9001:2015; ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018.
“Eesti Allergialiit tunnustab” (“Estonian Allergy and Asthma Federation recognizes”) is assigned to products that are safe, reliable, do not contain fragrance or generally irritating or sensitising substances and that help to reduce indoor air pollutant levels and are suitable for people with sensitive skin or suffering from allergic diseases.
EU Ecolabel – The EU Ecolabel is the official ecolabel of the European Union. Ecolabel is a voluntary label, assigned to products with a minimal environmental impact throughout their life cycle - from raw materials production, from use to disposal; testifies to the safety of products and attentive attitude of the manufacturer to the issues of environmental protection. Ecolabel allows products to be distinguished from other similar items that have a greater negative impact on the environment. An ecolabel is issued by an impartial institution to a product which corresponds to the ecological criteria of the ecolabel. More information: http://ec.europa.eu/environment/ecolabel/

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 (nozzle: 0.017–0.021'').

Tool cleaning

Wash with soap and water after completing work.

Colour	White
Tinting	Machine tinting according to the Eskarocolor system (bases А, TR).
Consumption	Consumption on the absorbing surface of 7…8 m²/L, consumption of non-absorbent surface of 9…10 m²/L. For painting 1 m² s required approximately 150…175 ml of paint i, depending on the surface. Minimize waste of paint by calculating the pre-required amount using an online calculator http://eskaro.ee/products/calc/.
Drying time	At the temperature of +20 °C and the relative humidity of 80%, the surface is ready for the application of another coat in 2–2,5 hours. The surface is fully dry in 12 hours. The coating reaches its peak wash resistance in 3…4 weeks.
