TECHNICAL DATASHEET
Features
- Alkali resistant: Can be applied to new, dry cement plaster.
- Excellent penetration: Can penetrate friable and chalky surfaces and bond.
- Microporous: Does not trap water vapour.
- Adhesion promoter: Improves adhesion of emulsion paints to difficult substrates.
- 100% lead free.
Intended Usages
- To penetrate and bind chalky paint films – interior and exterior.
- To penetrate and bind friable plasters.
- To seal porous plasters, brick, concrete, fibre cement and masonite.
Application Details
- Mixing: Stir before use with a flat paddle to an even consistency. Stir occasionally during use to ensure the correct penetration results.
- Method: Roller or brush.
- Thinning: ProGold Mineral Turpentine up to 20% on the first coat for a 2 coat application. 1 Coat application, apply undiluted.
- Cleaning: Remove as much of the product as possible from the application equipment before cleaning with ProGold Mineral Turpentine.
Conditions:
- Temperature between 5°C and 40°C.
- Relative humidity of less than 85%, preferably between 10: 00 and 16: 00.
Drying time:
4-6 hours.
Note: Higher temperatures will accelerate the drying times (approximately halved for every 10°C increase), whilst lower temperatures will retard the drying time (approximately doubled for every 10°C decrease).
Recoating time: 24 hours to 48 hours maximum at 23°C.
Requirements: 1-2 coats dependent on surface conditions.
Surface Preparations
New, sound plaster:
- Ensure the plaster is dry.
- Brush down well to remove as much of the loose material as possible then apply directly.
New, friable plaster:
- Ensure the plaster is dry.
- Brush down well to remove as much of the loose material as possible.
- Apply a coat of Prominent Surface Restorer diluted 20% with ProGold Mineral Turpentine.
- Apply second coat undiluted.
Friable floor screed:
- Not recommended.
Chalky paint (thin coat):
- Apply directly.
- Do a cross hatch adhesion test to ensure proper binding of the substrate before the final finishing application commences.
Chalky paint (numerous coats):
- Remove chalkiness by high pressure water washer 180KPA with a rotating nozzle or ProGold General Purpose Cleaner/water mixture (1: 10) and a nylon scrubbing brush.
- Rinse with clean water, allow drying and apply a coat of Prominent Surface Restorer diluted 20% with ProGold Mineral Turpentine.
- Apply second coat undiluted.
Lime-wash:
- Remove chalkiness by high pressure water washer 180KPA with a rotating nozzle or ProGold General Purpose Cleaner/water mixture (1: 10) and a nylon scrubbing brush.
- Rinse with clean water, allow drying and apply a coat of Prominent Surface Restorer diluted 20% with ProGold Mineral Turpentine.
- Apply second coat undiluted.
- In all cases it is important to perform a cross hatch adhesion test to ensure proper binding of the substrate before the final finishing application commences.
Limitations
- Apply only under specified conditions.
- Not for use on metal surfaces as a primer or finishing coat.
- Efficacy with respect to penetrating and bonding on a specific surface must be tested on a small surface before proceeding with the remaining surface area.
- Product can become thixotropic with time. This however does not affect overall performance.
- Needs to be overcoated and may not be left as a final coat.
- Cannot serve as a primer for Prominent Stoep Enamel and Prominent 2-pack epoxies.
- Not UV stable if not overcoated.
- Cannot be applied to damp surfaces.
