Fibre Encapsulation

A new generation, water-based, 100% acrylic, long-life, exterior, silky low sheen coating. Meets most of the rigorous requirements of SABS 1586-Grade.1/2 that acts as a fibre encapsulation coating.

 

  • Highly durable and water resistant.
  • The coating surface is smooth and silky low sheen /matt in appearance.
  • Excellent adhesion.
  • Low odour.
  • 3-4 coats of the product are applied for best results for fibre encapsulation.
  • If correctly applied to a properly prepared substrate, the product has a life expectancy of 10 years, possibly longer. It can also be overcoated with either roof paint of liquid rubber waterproofing if the roof is prone to leaks during heavy rain.

SPECIFICATIONS

Application Areas

  • Exterior use.
  • Mostly weathered asbestos /fibre cement.
  • Plaster, hardboard and fibre cement walls.
  • Primed metal and wooden substrates.
  • Walls, ceilings, fibre cement, galvanised gutters and down pipes, PVC pipes, fibre and hard board panels.

Spreading Rate

8-10m2 per litre.
Although the spreading rate will vary with porosity and type of substrate, for uncoated new surfaces work on 6-8m2 per litre for the first coat and 8-10m2 per litre for subsequent coats and when applied to sealed, previously painted substrates.

Resin Base

Acrylic resin emulsion

Drying Time

Touch dry: ± 30 minutes. Hard dry: 3-4 hours

35-40 microns per coat

Surface Appearance

Slightly silky matt

Application Details

Mixing

Always stir well before use with a flat paddle.

  • Allow to dry 4-6 hours before recoating.
  • Apply a second waiting 4-6 hours between coats.
  • This product is ready for use un-thinned. Thinning with water will reduce its hiding power and effectiveness.
  • Two coats of this product must be used for best results.
  • Clean application equipment with clean tap water.
  • Do not apply before 09:00am and after 16:00pm in the winter.
  • Do not apply to exterior surfaces if it looks like rain will occur within 4-6 hours of application.
