Revision of September 2005 SIGMATEX water borne thixotropic decorative wall paint based on latex emulsion is unsaponiable and therefore suitable for painting alkaline surfaces to be used as decorative quick drying nish on walls and ceilings in accommodation, cabins, passage ways etc. and for plastered pipelines resistant to wet scrubbing, easy to clean eliminates porosity of substrates and is water vapour permeable no bleeding when applied over bituminous surfaces low odour during application very good hiding power must not be used at air/substrate temperature below 5C white (can be tinted) - at (1 g/cm =8.25 lb/US gal; 1 m/l =40.7 ft/US gal) 1.5 g/cm 42 2% max. 0 g/kg (Directive 1999/13/EC, SED) max. 0 g/l (0 lb/gal) 7 - 10 m/l, depending on type and structure of substrate 30 minutes at a relative humidity of approx. 50% min. 2 hours at a relative humidity of approx. 50% max. no limitations at least 24 months above 65C to be applied in a one or two coat system, gypsum, gypsum board, hardboard, chip board, plastered walls and normal insulation materials the temperature of the substrate must be at least 5C to be applied in two coats stir well before use the temperature of the paint should preferably be above 15C, otherwise extra thinner may be required to obtain application viscosity too much solvent results in reduced sag resistance
