TECHNICAL DATASHEET

Features

  • Non-yellowing: Unlike alkyd based paints, whites remain white.
  • Waterbased: Easy cleaning, low odour and quick drying.
  • Resist staining: Easy to clean and remove dirt and grime.
  • Hardwearing and washable
  • Good adhesion: Can be applied to previously coated, sound surfaces.
  • UV Resistant: Does not chalk on outside exposure – normal fading of colours can take place over time.
  • Can be tinted to specific colour requirements.
  • Lead free and low VOC: Reduces the odour associated with painting indoors.

Intended Usages

  • Formulated for use on correctly primed interior and exterior surfaces such as walls, wood, fascias and steel.

Conditions:

4 hours at 23°C.

Requirements:
Two coats.
