MARBLE AQ
Description
Slow drying water-base decorative material.
Recommended Uses
Used for decoration of previously coated interior walls by a base color. Provides different patterns by using different tools such as brush strokes, short-haired roller, rag, sponge, paper or plastic bags.
Features
• Slow drying which allows enough time to produce the desired decoration.
• Odors free decorative material.
• Excellent adhesion on previously coated surfaces with a semi-gloss paint.
• Wide range of colors and patterns can be obtained.
• Good resistance to mechanical wears.
Application Instruction
• Method of Application : Good quality brush or short-haired roller (special stamped roller). Sponge, rag,paper or plastic bag can also be used depending on the required pattern.
• Mixing : Stir well before application in order to ensure that a uniform consistency is achieved.
• Thinner / Cleaner : Water is used for cleaning.
• Note : • When recoating a special attention should be given toward drying times. • Temperature of substrate should be at least 3°C above dew point to avoid moisture condensation during application. Note: To obtain the required decoration or pattern, the decorative material “MARBLE AQ” should be applied by a skilled paint worker.
Technical Information
• Color : Upon request using multicolor machines.
• Volume Solids : 30 % (ASTM-D2697)
• Flexibility : Very good
• Recommended film thickness : 15-25 microns “dry”
• Theoretical spreading rate : 15 m²/L at 20 microns “dry”
• Specific gravity : 1 Kg/L (DIN 51757)
• Water resistance : Good.
• Abrasian Resistance : Very good.
• Number of Coats : Depends on the decorative pattern
• Packaging : 0.9 L in metal can
Surface Preparation
Coating performance is, in general, proportional to the degree of surface preparation. Surface must be clean and free of dust and other contaminants prior to coating.
It is recommended to apply MARBLE AQ on previously painted surfaces with a matt or semi-gloss paint such as WT07 / WT08 “Water emulsion acrylic paint” (Refer to technical data sheets). Previously painted surfaces should be clean, dry, and free of any loose material.
Note:
Required patterns should be worked before MARBLE AQ starts to dry and becomes tacky.
Drying Time
• Dry to Touch : 4 hours (ASTM-D1640).
• Dry to Handle : 10 hours “minimum recoat time” (ASTM-D1640).
• Note : Drying times can be affected by many factors such as temperature, ventilation and coat thickness. Higher temperatures will shorten the drying times.
Storing Conditions
• MARBLE AQ has to be kept in a cool and well-ventilated place protected from heat and direct sunlight.
• Shelf life is 2 years from packing date in unopened original containers at 5 to 40°C. Containers should be kept tightly closed.
Safety
• Well-ventilated conditions should be provided during application.
• Do not breathe or inhale mist.
• Wear air-mask and avoid skin or eye contact.
