LAZUR Z/W – Lazure paint for performing special decorative effects
A modern, water-based acrylic dispersion paint intended for carrying decorative, lazure (not fully covering) paint coatings inside and outside buildings, including in KABE THERM EWI systems. It is used to provide the wood/board effect, architectural concrete eff ect and aged brick eff ect. Especially recommended for emphasizing the decorative surface texture. It allows for unlimited possibilities of shaping individual decorations adjusted to specifi c interior in terms of colour scheme and style. It allows for making coatings with various paint effects, inspired by the decorator’s imagination and skills. It can be used for carrying out decorative finish coats in public utility facilities (such as hotels, shops, restaurants, offices and conference rooms), as well as in elegant residential rooms (such as living rooms). It is especially recommended for painting rough surfaces with attractive texture (such as thin-coat renders of modelled or smooth texture). To be applied both on mineral substrates (such as traditional cement renders, cement-lime renders and thin-coat mineral renders) and substrates coated with a well-bonded plastic-based render/plaster. Before the application of lazure paint, the substrate should be painted once with PROLATEX or AKRYLATEX W (indoors) or AKRYLATEX and ARMASIL F (outdoors).

SUBSTRATE PREPARATION: Substrate should be sound/stable (without scratches and cracks), degreased, clean and dry, and free of biological contamination and chemical efflorescence. In case of fungi growth, the substrate should be cleaned mechanically and then disinfected with fungicidal agent for interiors. Discolourations, nicotine stains and effl orescences caused by water stains should be painted fi rst with MILAMAT stain blocker. Any loose layers, not bound to the substrate (e.g., loose render or fl aked coatings), should be removed. The remnants of adhesive or lime paints should be thoroughly removed and the substrate should be washed with water. Old and/or dirty substrates should be washed and degreased with water and CLEANFORCE cleaning agent. For particularly uneven substrates, fi rst use KOMBI FINISZ fi lling compound, and then smooth out the whole surface with PROFINISZ smoothing compound. Small unevenness can be smoothed right away with PROFINISZ smoothing compound. Absorbent substrates should be primed with BUDOGRUNT WG prior to applying smoothing compounds and/or renders. Fresh cement renders and cement-lime renders can be painted after 3-4 weeks of curing period, gypsum renders after 2 weeks, while the so-called “drywall construction” can be painted directly after polishing and removing dust.
PRIMING: Before the application, the substrate should be painted once with PROLATEX or AKRYLATEX W or AKRYLATEX or ARMASIL F (white colour is most often applied). Drying time for the paint applied on a substrate is about 3 hours under optimum weather conditions (temperature +20°C and relative humidity of 55%). The lazure paint can be applied when the undercoat applied on the substrate is completely dry.
PAINT PREPARATION: The packaging contains a ready-to-use product. If necessary, the paint can be diluted by adding a small amount of clean water (adding 5% by vol.). Quantity of added water may vary depending on the substrate type, drying conditions and application method. Mix the paint thoroughly immediately before use.
APPLICATION: Depending on the assumed decorative effect, paint may be applied on the substrate in one or two layers with the use of various painting tools (such as brush, roller, sponge, pad, cloth, paint glove or by means of spraying). Another layer of paint should be applied after the first one dries. As necessary, the subsequent paint coatings may differ in colour and application technique. The fresh lazure paint coating is easy to process and the fi nal eff ect depends only on the skills and imagination of the worker.
DRYING: Typical drying time for one layer of paint applied onto a substrate is approx. 3 hours (at air temperature +20°C, 55% RH). Note: At low temperatures and high air humidity, the coating setting time will be longer. After painting, closed rooms should be ventilated until the specific smell disappears. The coating obtains its full mechanical and functional properties after 4 weeks.
USEFUL HINTS: In order to avoid colour differences, it is necessary to create a surface constituting a separate architectural whole in one work cycle with material from the same production batch. Paint application and drying should take place at temperatures over +5°C. Tools should be cleaned with water immediately after finishing work.
