NOVALIT PLAN – Polysilicate facade paint for cracked substrates
Polysilicate for cracked substrates
Mineral paint produced based on innovative, low-alkali polysilicate technology. It is used for performing substrate paint coating under NOVALIT F topcoat paint on difficult substrates (non-uniform or cracked) outside buildings. It is used both for mineral substrates (such as concrete, lime render, cement-lime render, cement render) and on substrates covered with well set and bound polymer-based coats. It makes up a mineral coating permanently connected with the substrate which fills in the micro-cracks and evens non-uniform substrate properties. Due to the content of special micro-fibres it efficiently bridges scratches and cracks of the substrate with a width up to 0.3 mm. Mineral substrates, prior to paint application require priming with NOVALIT GF.
• Efficient bridging and sealing of small scratches and cracks
• Mineral character
• Low-alkali reaction (pH 8÷9.5)
• Resistance to the changes of atmospheric conditions
during application and setting
• Micro-porous texture which assures high vapour permeability
• Low surface absorption
• To be applied on both mineral substrates and polymer coated surfaces
