Silicone resin emulsion paints are easy to process, and problems are rarely encountered. However, there are a few points to note:
- First dilute the paint to the correct processing consistency.
- Then apply the product directly from the container.
- Use a brush, roller, or spray gun to apply the paint.
- The paint will dry as the water evaporates.
- Protect windows, window sills and adjacent parts of the building with adhesive tape.
- Dilute the paint for the base coat and for the topcoat with the amounts of water specified by the manufacturer.
- Observe the specified drying times.
- Because the paints are slightly alkaline, protect skin and eyes during processing.
- During processing and drying of the paint, the air temperature, tools and plaster base should not be colder than 5° C.
- General technical specifications pertaining to processing of the paints and execution of the paintwork are described in German industrial standards DIN 18 363 and DIN 18 350 VOB, Part C.
- Spot repairs that blend perfectly into the original paintwork are easily performed.
