Technical Characteristics

BETONCRYLL PIGMENTATO is a special, coloured, high coverage, acrylic protective paint for concrete. The product consists of organic pigments, titanium dioxide fillers and modified acrylic resins in water dispersion which provide a waterproof coating resistant to frost thaw cycle and to the penetration of CO2 and SO2 gases. BETONCRYLL PIGMENTATO prevents the carbonation and the related oxidization of the concrete iron rods. The product can be used to decorate concrete walls or to rectify defects and deteriorated areas. The product prevents the development of moulds and algae. Due to its high vapour permeability the product can also be applied onto masonry, fibre cement and stone. It has a low odour level, is non inflammable and is friendly to both humans and the environment.

Ideal Use

Concrete

Surface Preparation

Carefully clean the surface to be treated removing any loose or flaking material, dust, smog stains or dirt by brushing thoroughly or washing the surface. New surfaces must be thoroughly dry and mature and free from grease.

Application Method

Onto old, powdery and chalking substrates, apply a coat of the transparent primer NEOKRYLL by OIKOS and allow 4 ÷ 6 hours to dry. After the substrate is prepared, apply two coats of BETONCRYLL PIGMENTATO by brush, roller or spray gun (1.3 ÷ 1.7 mm nozzle), waiting 4 hours between coats. Dilute the product with 40% drinkable water for the first coat and 20% for the second.
