PROBLEM: to paint or decorate difficult substrates

Sometimes l&rsquo arises in the decoration or restoration of artifacts, a need for technical, aesthetic, or practical reasons, to use a finishing product that is, however? due to its characteristics it is not? suitable for the fund you want to paint. In fact, usually a paint product and? formulated for a specific support and often not usable on other supports (it may have insufficient adhesion, undesired reactions, insufficient elasticity, etc.). Thinking about this, and? a poly-functional solvent base called ZINCOLAC PRIMER was developed to be used as a primer in the considered supports “ difficult&rdquo ;. These can? then be over-painted with the chosen product thus obtaining? the desired finish.

    • SOLUTION: Preparation of the support

    New iron  
    Remove rust by brushing, sanding or sandblasting the detaching rust and the calamine. Degrease thoroughly with NUBISOLVE.

    Iron already? painted  
    Remove outcropping rust and old enamel by brushing; degrease thoroughly with NUBISOLVE.

    Galvanized sheet, aluminum, copper, cast iron, new  
    Degrease thoroughly with NUBISOLVE.

    Old galvanized sheet  
    Remove any loose parts and rust; keep the areas where galvanizing is still present.

    Steel  
    Sand to roughen the surface; if necessary lightly sandblast.

    Plastic
    Sand to roughen the support slightly.

    Paint application

    Application of the ZINCOLAC PRIMER: Dilute the product with DILUENTE UNIVERSALE DL600 for brush, roller or spray application with NUBISOLVE. The indicative yield e? 7-8 m2 / l. per coat corresponding to a thickness of 40-60 dry microns. Do not exceed the thickness to avoid wrinkling and abnormal drying. If it were necessary to make higher thicknesses, make a further application after the previous one and? dried. Wait at least 12 hours between subsequent applications.

    • Application finish

    The finishes more? indicated are the enamels of the range. E’ It is possible to choose between solvent-based alkyd enamels (S1), chlorovinyl enamels (ZINCOLAC). Should l&rsquo application be all’ interior e? however, it is also possible to apply high-end washable or decorative emulsion-based water-based paints. In this second hypothesis, given the very high number of solutions and? necessary support of the 26-rsquo; company for fine-tuning the optimum cycle.
