Farbex
Wet Rooms
Paint for wet spaces
Specification
It creates a hard, wearproof and water-repellent matt coating that completely allows surfaces "to breathe". It is resistant to repeated washing (wet abrasion resistance - 2nd class according to DSTU EN 13300). It is easy to apply. It does not run and does not spray during application.
Sphere of application
It is intended for interior coating of all kinds of mineral surfaces (plaster, finishing plaster, brick, concrete), gypsum and wooden surfaces, wallpaper and fiberglass. It is recommended for initial and renovation coating of walls and ceilings in wet premises with high exploitation load: bathrooms, kitchens, living rooms, offices, medical, educational establishments, and spaces of catering and industrial enterprises.
Tinting
It is intended for use as a single white coating or can be tinted in pastel colors.
It is tinted manually with pigment concentrates Farbex Color, other water-based tinting pastes, or with tinting machines according to NCS color rate or others. If tinting with other colorants, tinting machines, or catalogs, you must do trial tinting and coating.
We recommend using the product of the same batch, both the paint and the colorant, for the finishing coat to avoid differences in color shades. The joint surfaces must also be coated with the product of the same batch. In case you use the product from different batches, you must mix it.
Make a test coating on a small area of the surface to check if the tinted paint meets your expectations.
We do not recommend diluting tinted paint for a finishing coat.
Some insignificant deviations in technical data for the product are allowed after tinting.
The hint: When you choose the color, consider the lighting in the premises. Warm or cold light can give a different perception of the same color.
