SILK TOUCH KH06

SILK TOUCH is made from Acrylic emulsion for internal protection. Matt and smooth finishing film could stand up to severe weather conditions with good light fastness, chalking resistance. New technologies make the product with good quality, high coverage, goods alkali resistance, anti-fungus and algae and UV resistance. No added formaldehyde, lead and mercury.

• Components: Acrylic, pigments, additives & water
• Color: Refer to catalogue and fan-deck
• Finish: Matt
• Theoretical coverage: 9.8 -13.0 m2 /liter/coat (Actual surface coverage will be depended on the spreading of paint film ability, dry film thickness, surface irregularities, technique and wastage during painting.)
• Volatile Organic: Compound (VOCs) ≤ 50 g/L
• The drying time, Relative Humidity (RH) 50%

SURFACE PREPARATION

New surface:

• Let the concrete, cement plaster and mortar must be cured at least 28 days in ambient condition (average temperature is 25°C -30°C, relative humidity <75%), the surface moisture is not exceed 16% (specialized measuring testing equipment). pH value is about 6-9.
• Remove all dust, grease, wax, laitance, chalking and others contamination from the surface by specialized machine as: grinding, sanding, vacuum cleaner, high pressure water jet and proper cleanness.
• Apply 2 coats KOWAY WALL MASTIC EXTERIOR for smooth surface.

Old surface:

• Remove all dust, fungus, algae, loose old paint or others contamination from the surface by specialized machine as: grinding, sanding, vacuum cleaner, high pressure water jet and proper cleanness.
• Then, treat the areas attacked by fungus, algae with proper chemicals. Wash the surface if required, let it fully dry, the substrate moisture must be lower than 16% (specialized measuring testing equipment).
• Repair the damaged area. Cracks bigger than 0.1mm must be fixed and make smooth by KOWAY WALL MASTIC EXTERIOR.
• Apply 1 coat of proper alkali sealer to improve adhesion for paint film.

APPLICATION METHOD

• Application tools: Brush, roller, conventional spray
• Film thickness: Guiding data for airless spray
  • Nozzle tip size: 0.021 – 0.027”
  • Spray angle degrees: 65 – 80º
  • Pressure at nozzle: 140 – 190 Kg/cm2 (2.000 2.600 Psi)
  • Dry film thickness: Min: 30μm, Standard: 35μm, Max: 40μm
  • Wet film thickness: Min: 77μm, Standard: 90μm, Max: 103μm
  • Film thickness will vary and is calculated as average
• Dilution: The paint is ready to use after proper stirring until homogeneous. If thinning is required, clean water may be added up to a maximum of 5%.

• Store in a dry, cool, good ventilation area, shaded area. Keep out of reach of children. Storage temperature is about 25°C – 35°C.
• Ensure that the right primer is used. Should use putty and let it thoroughly cure before painting.
• Stir well before use and once opened, entire contents should be used.
• Apply when temperature is from 10°C to 35°C and relative humidity <75%. The surface temperature must be 3°C higher than the dew point.

• Please do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood.
• Keep away from heat, sparks, open flame, and hot surfaces. No smoking.
• Wear protective gloves, respirators, eye protection, and protective clothing.
• Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or ingestion. Go right to the nearest health center for help in case of ingesting paint or paint contacts with your eyes.
• Avoid release to the environment. Treat discarded paint according to environmental law.
• See more guidelines in the Safety Data Sheet.
