Solacoat-500

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Solacoat-500,an elastomeric, premium quality acrylic coating, may be applied by brush, roller, squeegee or spray equipment depending on site conditions. To spray, select a nozzle size of at least 0.028 inch; first checking the spray equipment to ensure suitability. All surfaces to be coated must be clean, dry, free from dust, dirt, oil and other contaminants. Coverage rate varies depending on factors such as type and quality of substrates i.e. surface regularity and application method. Apply in separate coats, each at a right angle to the one before. Using a different color for each coat helps ensure consistency of cover. The final coating thickness to be achieved depends on the requirements of the individual roof. A final dry film thickness between 0.5 and 1.5 mm may be built-up

APPLICATION PROCESS

• Primer must be completely dry before the first coat is applied.
• Solacoat-500 may be applied by soft brush, roller or spray gun.
• For spraying, Solacoat-500may be slightly diluted with water. To great a dilution may lead to sedimentation and blocking of spray gun.
• Apply two coats, each at the approximate rate of 0.8 Kg/Sqm. (excluding the Solacoat-500 prime coat).
• Where substantial movement is anticipated in the substructure, a mesh reinforcement (60/80gsm thermo-bonded polyester as part of a “sandwich” membrane system is used. Lay this mesh in the wet first coat before application of subsequent coats. All detailing to pipes, upstands, drains, projected line etc. should be mesh re-in forced in this way.
