DESCRIPTION: A matt interior paint based on natural
and non toxic ingredients, which compliment the original formulas.
The paint has a pleasant smell and is available in a range of
harmonious colours. For use on interior surfaces such as
plasterboard, solid plaster, concrete and mud brick. It is not
recommended for use on timber or on timber products such as medium
density fibroboard, masonite or particle-board. Bio Wall Paint
breathes, while conventional wall paints seal off the walls, which
can promote mould growth. Bio Wall Paint HD (Heavy Duty) has been
tested by the Department of Defence according to the Australian
Standard AS 1580 for scrub-resistant and dry hiding power. It is
therefore well suited for schools, restaurants, offices and public
buildings with heavy traffic areas. Suitable for use in wet areas.
Bio Wall Paint has no Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) and does not
contribute to smog and pollution. It contains no lead, glycol
derivates, aromatic hydrocarbons or styrene compounds.
PREPARATION: Prepare the surface in accordance with
AS 2311 - Painting of Buildings. The surface to be painted should
be smooth, dry and cleaned of greasy and dirty contaminants. New
plaster and concrete can be painted after 6 weeks. Remove stains,
watermarks, soot etc. seal off with a weak solution of shellac:
200-250 grams Shellac per 1 Litre methylated spirit. Old lime and
kalsomine paint must be removed. Oil based and acrylic paint
surfaces – semi gloss or gloss - should be sanded with sandpaper. A
test strip is recommended on already painted surfaces if
compatibility is in doubt.
PRIMING: New, highly absorbent and crumbly surfaces
must be primed with BIO Wall Primer. Alkaline surfaces must be
primed first with a special conventional sealer to prevent
saponification of the paint. Plasterboard jointing cement should be
left for 48 hours before painting.
APPLICATION: Stir thoroughly before use with a
broad flat stirrer. May be brushed, rolled or sprayed. Apply one
thick coat or two thin coats (may be thinned with water 5%-10% to
obtain a smooth flowing consistency). New Gyprock surfaces need two
or three coats initially. Airless spraying requires 200
bar/pressure with a nozzle of 0.28 mm Titan -adjustable- or 0.53 mm
with a fan angel of 50*
