Resincoat Weatherguard Paint

DESCRIPTION

Perfect for external walls at home or in a commercial setting

Resincoat Weatherguard Masonry Paint is perfect for use both on domestic buildings as well as commercial projects. As with all Resincoat products, it is manufactured in the UK to a high ISO 9001 standard. Two coats of this paint will produce a smooth gloss or matt finish that will withstand weathering and will continue to look great for years to come. The coating is available in any of our standard colour range. It is a two-part formula which uses a chemical activator (Part B) to solidify and chemically cure the coating. This creates a toughness that single pack products cannot match. For advice on your project remember we're here to help.

APPLICATION GUIDE

Preparation

Old paint finishes should be removed if flaking at all and the surface should be sanded to create a texture (also known as a mechanical key) prior to applying Resincoat Weatherguard Paint. After the surface has been completely abraded, thoroughly sweep and vacuum the area of any remaining dust or contaminants before applying a suitable primer. For more information on preparation, please see technical data sheet. 

Priming

• For new concrete substrate or a substrate that is in good condition, prime with Resincoat Damp Tolerant Primer

• For dusty, old or weaker concrete substrates prime with Resincoat Deep Penetrating Primer

• For concrete substrate with heavy oil residue, clean thoroughly using a suitable degreaser scraping off any dust or dirt and then prime with Resincoat Oil Tolerant Primer

Application

We advise when applying this product the ambient temperature is at least 7°C.

1. Mix Part A on its own with a mixing paddle, attached to an electric drill, for about 1 minute. Once mixed, add ALL of Part B and continue to mix for another 90 seconds, keeping the paddle in suspension to avoid mixing air into the unit.

2. Pour entirety of the tin's contents into a plastic paint scuttle or tray.

3. Immediately begin applying your paint with a nylon-bonded resin suitable roller.

4. Use a brush around the edges to cut in (a second pair of hands can be useful for this stage).

5. As soon as the first coat has started curing (is no longer tacky to touch) you can re-coat; this should take 12-16 hours.

6. The cured final coat is ok for contact. Chemicals, including water, should not be introduced for the first 4 days (Full chemical cure) if at all possible.

PLEASE NOTE: The pot life of this product is 30 minutes. This means that once parts have been mixed, the paint will start to chemically cure after this time. Ensure you remove the paint from the tin in this window. The paint will then be workable on your floor for up to 60 minutes. 

Pot life = Time to harden in pot following addition of hardener

Working Time = Time to apply product before it becomes unworkable

USEFUL INFORMATION

• Roller sleeves should be used once per coat, two coats will require two roller sleeves.

• This product should NOT be split. Taking smaller quantities from each tin, even if measured correctly, may cause issues with activating.
