Fast Silikon

silicone paint for coating building facades

Usage

FAST SILIKON is a high-quality, water-based matte silicone paint, intended for permanent outdoor painting on any construction bases, such as: cement-lime plaster, cement and acrylic decorative plaster, concrete, sandstone, brick, etc. It is a component of the ETICS FAST S and FAST W thermal insulation systems.

Properties

FAST SILIKON is based on a binder in the form of a water dispersion of silicone and acrylic-styrene, it creates a tightly bonded coating with the surface, at the same time showing excellent water vapor permeability. FAST SILIKON paint has excellent resistance to weather conditions as well as high covering capacity and a high degree of whiteness. Water-based silicone dispersion, which is the basic binder in FAST SILIKON paint makes the coating also highly hydrophobic and resistant to dirt. Color selection according to FAST COLOR SYSTEM. It contains agents eliminating the growth of algae and fungi on the surface covered with paint.

Surface preparation

The surface must be clean, dry, free of grease and dust. Scratches and defects must be repaired and filled. The paint should be applied on strong, compact surfaces. The surfaces to be painted should be thoroughly dusted and then washed with water. Very absorbent and crumbling surfaces should be primed with FAST GRUNT SIL agent once or twice to obtain the correct absorption and load-bearing capacity. The paint can be used on the following surfaces:

  • cement and cement-lime plasters (after a minimum of 28 days from their application and the humidity not higher than 4%)
  • concrete (after a minimum of 28 days from their application and the humidity not higher than 4%)
  • thin-layer mineral or polymer-mineral FAST plaster (after a minimum of 14 days from its application)
  • old thin-layer plasters - thoroughly cleaned and primed with FAST GRUNT G preparation, it is recommended to carry out load capacity (adhesion) tests before starting painting

Preparation and usage method

Mix thoroughly before use. For the first layer, the product can be thinned with water up to 2%. Apply the second layer without thinning. The paint can be applied with a roller, spray or possibly with a brush. When applying and drying the paint, observe the appropriate weather conditions, i.e. surface and ambient temperature from +5°C to +25°C, no strong sunlight, no rain or too high relative air humidity above 75%. The drying time of one layer at the optimum temperature of +20 ° C is approx. 2 hours. It is recommended to apply subsequent layers after at least 4 hours. The paint coating acquires its full functional properties after complete hardening, i.e. after 28 days from the end of painting works.


Additional application guidelines:

  • Before the application, the color should be confirmed as ordered. Once the product has been applied, color claims will not be considered.
  • In order to avoid differences in shades on one architectural surface, works should be carried out without interruptions, using packages with paint of the same production batch, previously mixed with each other in a large caster.
  • Protect the paint from unfavorable atmospheric phenomena until it is completely dry
  • Follow the general technique of painting with facade paints.

CAUTION

In the case of using paints with very intense colors, due to their reduced coverage ability, the use of FAST GRUNT F base paint is required in a shade similar to the color of the paint prior to the painting.
