This emulsion is suitable for a variety of substrates including concrete, plaster, masonry, brickwork, blockwork, gypsum, and timber. Proper surface preparation is essential for optimal adhesion and performance.

The drying time varies with temperature: at 25°C, it takes about 4 hours to become touch dry and 8 hours for recoating. At higher temperatures (35°C and 45°C), these times are reduced to 3 hours and 1.5 hours respectively.

The theoretical covering capacity ranges from approximately 5.66 m²/L to 8.50 m²/L depending on the thickness of the application. For best results, a typical dry film thickness per coat should be between 40 to 60 microns.

The emulsion can be applied using a brush, roller, or spray equipment. It is recommended to apply at least two coats for optimal coverage and finish. Thinning with water (up to 5% by volume) may be necessary for ease of application.

Ensure adequate ventilation while applying the paint and avoid contact with skin and eyes. Protective clothing such as goggles and masks should be worn. The product should be kept out of reach of children.
