silox
Siloxane paint
Excellent breathability and water repellency
Resistant to alkali and to the weather
Description
Emulsion paint based on modified silicone resin. It shows the properties of mineral and synthetic paints.
Use
This product is used for the protection of the surfaces prepared with lime or cementitious plasters, when you want an excellent resistance to the weather combined with a good breathability and water repellency. It adheres well even on old paints provided they are well adherent.

Preparation of surfaces
New surfaces:
New plasters or patches must be cured, clean, dry and free from white layers.
On old paints, remove parts of oils, greases and all parts that are not adherent; level any irregularities of the substrate and seal off any cracks. So apply a coat of the fixative « SILOX PRIMER », ready to use.

Environmental conditions
Ambient temperature: from + 8 to 40° C
Temperature of the support: > 10° C
Humidity: 0 - 85 %
In order to prevent the formation of condensation, it is necessary that the temperature of the substrate is at least 3° C above the dew point.
Temperature of the support: > 10° C
Humidity: 0 - 85 %
In order to prevent the formation of condensation, it is necessary that the temperature of the substrate is at least 3° C above the dew point.
Precautions:
Do not apply on wet or not well cured substrates.
Do not apply at temperature below 10° C.
Do not apply when humidity is above 85 %, in case of imminent rain and in the presence of wind.
Do not apply in the presence of surface condensation or under direct sunlight.
The humidity of the substrate must be less than 10 %.
Protect from the rain for at least 48 hours. The complete drying of the product and the polymerization process takes place in 10 - 15 days under optimal environmental conditions. If, in the meantime, there were rains that would somehow wet the product, unsightly dregs with a glossy and sticky appearance could appear. They could be eliminated by power wash or waiting for the next rains. This phenomenon does not affect the characteristics of the product.
