the pro guide

Clean the surface thoroughly to remove dust, grease, algae and loose particles — use a pressure washer (max. 120 bar) or wire brush where needed. On highly absorbent substrates, prime first with RubberPaint thinned with 5–10% water. Fill cracks wider than 3 mm with sealant or filler beforehand, and strip back any old, flaking coatings completely.

On roofs, balconies and terraces, embed reinforcement fleece (polyester fleece 60 g/m² or glass-fibre fleece) into the wet first coat at every transition, internal and external corner, roof penetration, chimney, drain and wall junction. Saturate the fleece fully and work out any bubbles — overlaps at least 5 cm. These watertight detail points account for 80% of the long-term service life.

Apply with a brush, lambswool roller (12–18 mm pile) or airless sprayer (15–18 MPa, nozzle 0.017"–0.023"). Consumption approx. 100–200 g/m² per coat, depending on the porosity of the substrate. On absorbent surfaces the first coat can be diluted with up to 5 % water for better penetration. Apply between +10 °C and +30 °C; do not apply if rain is expected within the first 6 hours.

The first coat is dust-dry after approx. 2 hours at 23 °C and 50 % relative humidity — longer in cooler weather or higher humidity. Apply the next coat only once the previous one is completely dry (at least 4 hours), otherwise bubbles or clouding may occur. Stop work below +10 °C or above +30 °C — extreme conditions impair film formation.

Apply the second coat undiluted and crosswise to the first — this reliably covers any weak spots and achieves the full dry film thickness of approx. 0.5–0.8 mm. Rain-resistant after 6 hours, carefully walkable after 24 hours, fully resistant to mechanical and chemical loads after 28 days of complete curing. For heavily stressed areas (maintenance walkways, chimney connections) we recommend a third coat.
