Keim Soldalit

Keim Soldalit is a highly-developed, multi-purpose, exterior paint system based on a combination of silica sol and potassium silicate binding agents. It may be applied to a variety of unpainted and previously painted surfaces, and combines the benefits of a classic mineral paint with simplicity of application. Provides long-term decoration.

Features:

• Longevity.

• UV stability/ fade-free pigments.

• High light reflectivity.

• Odourless.

• Environmentally friendly.

• VOC and solvent free.

• Chemical crystalline bond.

• Matt finish.

• Incombustible.

Surface preparation:

• All loose, flaking and unstable material must be identified and then thoroughly removed using stiff brushes and broad bladed scrapers to get back to a sound edge; these edges should then be feathered in. Ensure that any paint materials left remaining and the underlying substrate is sound and adhering well. Any gloss or shiny surfaces should be thoroughly flatted down using sand or emery paper to create a good key.

• Any algae growth should be wire brushed to remove all growths and treated with Keim Algicid, brush applied undiluted and allowed to remain undisturbed for three hours before thoroughly washing off.

• Any cracks or where there is a need to equalise the surface should be filled using Keim Spachtel, a ready to use silicate mineral filler, brush or trowel applied to a pre-wetted surface and dressed back to the required level.

• Any newly repaired areas must be allowed to dry out for a minimum period of 15 days prior to the application of Keim Mineral Paints.

• All surfaces must be thoroughly washed down with clean cold water to remove all surface dirt and dust. When all surfaces are clean, sound, wind dry, dust free and free from all surface contaminants, decoration using Keim Mineral Paints may proceed.

Applications:

Suitable for use on all masonry substrates.

Two coats are recommended - a single undiluted coat by airless spray, brush or roller and worked well into all surfaces, then after a minimum period of 12 hours a final coat of Keim Soldalit, applied undiluted in a like manner.
