Leyland Trade Fine Textured Masonry Brilliant White 5L

Truguard Fine Textured Masonry

A tough, water-based coating, suitable for most exterior masonry surfaces, with the benefit of masking slight surface imperfections. The durable film protects against weathering and atmospheric pollution, with anti-carbonation  properties which resist the ingress of carbon dioxide from car exhaust fumes and prevent deterioration  of concrete  and steel.

Preparation Ensure surface to be painted is sound, clean, dry and free from grease. Treat any mould or lichen with Sterilisation Wash as directed. Truguard Fine Textured Masonry can be applied directly over bare and previously painted surfaces provided these are clean, sound and firm. Chalky, underbound surfaces should be scraped, dry brushed and then given a coat of Truguard Stabilising Masonry Primer. Remove any limewash or distemper completely. Wear a suitable face mask when creating dust. Before applying Truguard Stabilising Masonry Primer to the whole surface, first carry out a test application to a small area. If this dries to a glossy film, thin with one part of Leyland White Spirit to two parts of Truguard Stabilising Masonry Primer and then test again in another small area. It is important to ensure that a non-glossy, dried, sealed surface is produced.

Application

Stir well before use. Do not thin, except for absorbent surfaces, when a small quantity of clean water may be added. Apply two full coats, allowing 4-6 hours between coats under normal drying conditions. Do not apply when air or surface temperatures are below 10°C, or when rain is imminent. Suitable for application by brush, roller and suitably adapted conventional spray.

Cleaning

Remove as much product as possible from application equipment before cleaning. Clean equipment immediately after use with warm soapy water and rinse thoroughly. Some local authorities have special facilities for disposal of waste coatings. Do not empty product into drains or watercourses. Replace lid firmly.
