Application tips:
To achieve the best results with this stabilising solution, follow these detailed application steps:
- Surface Preparation: Ensure all surfaces are sound, dry, and clean. Remove any dirt, oil, grease, or other contaminants that could interfere with adhesion. Proper surface preparation is crucial for ensuring the stabilising solution penetrates effectively and binds the substrate.
- Treatment of Organic Growth: If there is any organic growth present, it must be thoroughly removed. Treat the affected areas with a fungicidal wash to kill any remaining spores. This step is essential to prevent future growth and ensure a clean, stable surface for painting.
- Application Conditions: Do not apply the stabilising solution over bitumen or when there is a risk of rain or frost. Ideal application conditions are dry weather with temperatures above freezing to ensure proper curing and effectiveness.
- Application Method: Apply the stabilising solution using a suitable brush. This method ensures deep penetration into porous and powdery surfaces, providing maximum stabilization. Use even, overlapping strokes to ensure complete coverage.
- Drying Time: Allow 16 hours between coats to ensure the stabilising solution fully dries and binds the surface. The solution will be touch dry in 1-2 hours, depending on ambient temperature and humidity levels. Proper drying time is crucial for the stabilising solution to achieve its full binding potential.
This specially formulated stabilising solution is an indispensable tool for any painting project, ensuring that even the most challenging surfaces are prepared and stabilized effectively. By following the detailed application instructions, you can achieve a smooth, durable finish that will stand the test of time. This product is your go-to solution for binding and stabilizing porous, loose, and powdery surfaces, ensuring a successful painting outcome.
