TOP WHITE Anti-Reflex – Paint for walls and ceilings
A modern dispersion topcoat paint for carrying out aesthetic super white paint coatings inside buildings. Intended for painting walls and ceilings in “dry” rooms (such as: living room, bedroom, hall, offices and conference rooms). The paint reduces light reflections that create the impression of uneven substrate. It can be used for decorative and protective painting of surfaces inside residential, office and public buildings, including school and educational facilities (schools, kindergartens) and health care facilities (hospitals), production plants, including food industry (without direct contact with food). It creates an aesthetic, smooth coating, providing high finishing standard and pleasant matt optics. It features high resistance to yellowing and washing off or scrubbing. It can be used for primary and renovation painting of mineral substrates (e.g., concrete, cement renders, cement-lime renders, lime and gypsum renders and plasterboards) and on substrates covered with well-set plastic-based renders/plasters. Absorbent or chalking substrates must be primed with AQUALIT primer prior to paint application.

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 efflorescences 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 flaked 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, first use KOMBI FINISZ filling 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: Absorbent or dusty (strongly chalking) substrates should be primed with AQUALIT before applying the paint. Drying time for the primer applied on a substrate is about 3 hours under optimum weather conditions (temperature +20°C and relative humidity of 55%). When the primer applied on the substrate is completely dry, TOP WHITE ANTI-REFLEX paint may be applied. Note: Substrates with low wettability (such as plastic-based renders or dispersion paint coatings) should not be primed and should be only washed with water and the CLEANFORCE product.
PAINT PREPARATION: If necessary, the paint can be diluted with a small amount of potable water, by adding 5% by volume to the first painting and to the second painting (when determining the amount of water, the type of substrate, drying conditions and application technique should be taken into account).
APPLICATION: The paint should be applied on the substrate in two layers with a brush, roller or by spraying (including also “airless” method). It is recommended to use a fleece paint roller with a bristle length of 18 mm. The second coat can be applied only after the first one is completely dry.
DRYING: Typical drying time for one layer of paint applied onto a substrate is approx. 3 hours (at air temperature +20°C, 55% RH). After painting, closed rooms should be ventilated until the specifi c smell disappears. Note: At low temperatures and high air humidity, the paint drying time will be longer. 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.
ADDITIONAL OPTIONS: If the paint is applied on substrates with cracks with a width of up to 0.3 mm (e.g., small shrinking cracks of the mineral render), it is recommended to use paint reinforced with microfibres for the fi rst painting (an option available on request). In order to increase the resistance of the paint coating to mould growth, it is recommended to apply a special protective agent to the paint (additional service).
