Sandtex® Microseal® masonry paint is microporous and provides sealing attributes that protect the coating against water ingress. This means that the coating allows the surface to breathe and moisture to evaporate whilst at the same time protecting the coated surface from water penetration.

The advanced coating protects over an extended period against mould and algae growth.

Its dirt resistant properties also help to maintain the coating's aesthetic features, and with the benefit of being rainproof in just 1 hour* you can complete the job even if the weather forecast is not reliable.

With 15 years trusted durability, you can ensure that your house looks better for longer.

* when applied in accordance with manufacturers instructions. Ensure masonry is dry before applying and do not apply in temperatures below 8?C.

PREPARATION

General Preparation: All surfaces must be sound, clean, dry and free from anything that will interfere with the adhesion of the paint. New surfaces usually require little preparation but must be completely dried out before painting. Avoid the inhalation of dust. Wear a suitable face mask if dry sanding. Fungal Growth and Mould: Treat any organic growth with Sandtex Fungicidal Wash, see pack for application details. Loose or Flaking Material: Remove all loose and flaking material by scraping or brushing with a stiff bristle brush (not wire). Chalking, Weathered. Powdery or Porous Surfaces: These surfaces should be brushed down and treated with an application of Sandtex Stabilising Solution. As with all coatings preparation is key and poor preparation will result in poor coating performance.

APPLICATION

Colour: We recommend a trial application before you start, in an inconspicuous area to confirm your colour choice. If using more than one batch of paint mix them together before application to ensure colour consistency.

General Application: Stir well before and during use. Apply with a good quality masonry brush, exterior roller or airless spray. See spray manufacturer?s instructions for guidelines on application. Do not apply if there is a risk of rain or frost, or if the temperature will fall below 8°C during drying.

Drying Time: Re-coatable after 3-4 hours in normal conditions.

Cleaning: Wash all equipment in clean water immediately after use
