BK-Fas Silicat

Silicate dispersion for exterior walls

USE

CHARACTERISTICS

PACKAGE

Silicate dispersion paint for protection and decoration of exterior and interior wall surfaces, characterized by excellent vapor permeability and good coverage. Due to the specific method of bonding to the substrate, it is suitable for use in the restoration of the facade surfaces of old buildings and cultural monuments. It is resistant to UV radiation and atmospheric influences. Tinting is possible according to the Bekament color charts with limited color choices.

Preparation and application :

The substrate to which the paint is applied must be solid, clean, dry, and coated with BK-Grund Silicat or BK-Ultra Prime. The preparation of the paint is performed by adding about 10% water (0.5 l of water for the 5 kg packaging; 0.8 l of water for the 8 kg packaging; 2.5 l of water for the 25 kg packaging), with good stirring until complete homogenization. BK-FasSilicat is usually applied with a long-hair roller in two coats. The second layer is applied after complete drying of the first, which under normal conditions (T=+23-25 ºC, relative humidity=50-60%) requires 4-6 hours. It is necessary to work evenly and without interruption on continuous surfaces. High humidity and low temperatures can prolong the bonding time and affect the uniformity of shade. Protective curtains must be used during application. See the product datasheet for more detailed instructions.

Application temperature :

From +15°C to +30°C, relative humidity max. 70%. Do not work under direct sunlight, rain or strong wind.

Shelf life :

12 months in original sealed packing. Store at temperatures from +5°C to +25°C, protected from direct sunlight and frost.

Consumption :

Approx. 0.35 kg/m² in two coatings, depending on the absorbency of the substrate.

Note :

When applying BK-Fas Silicat, it is essential to protect the surfaces with protective curtains to ensure even drying of the coating and to prevent the appearance of stains.
