This product data sheets shall be read in conjunction with the Dulux specification.
To ensure colour uniformity and for optimum performance, Dulux recommend a full coating system including a Membrane topcoat. For all systems, the Texture &/or Base Coat should be tinted in accordance with Tint Guide to the specified topcoat colour (or a colour as close as possible to the specified colour as product and Acratex tint rules allow).
Important: Not all colours are suitable for exterior use. Ensure that you have adequate tinted stock to complete the job in one application. All material must be thoroughly cross-mix to ensure tint uniformity. It is recommended to hold a volume of finish material for future maintenance touch-ups
Practical spreading rates will vary from quoted theoretical figures depending on substrate porosity, surface roughness, overspray losses, application methods and environmental conditions (e.g. wind).
• Do not apply paint if Relative Humidity is above 85% or temperature is within 3°C of Dew Point.
• Do not apply if the surface temperature is greater than 40°C or below 10°C, or likely to fall below 10°C during the application or drying period.
• Dry times apply to a single coat at recommended spread rate and at 25°C and 50% Relative Humidity
• Allow longer times under cool, moist, or still conditions and or when applied at high film builds.
• Protect from dew, rain and frost for 48 hours when apply at the recommended spread rate.
• Avoid application in hot, windy conditions or on hot surfaces cool the surface by hosing with water and paint the cool damp surface. • The exterior texture coatings should be cleaned on a regular basis.
• This will help maintain your overall aesthetic appearance and preserve your Acratex Texture coating system.
Cleaning once every year will remove light soil as well as grime and airborne pollutants refer Dulux Acratex Care & Maintenance Guide.

Moisture content less than 10% WE
At Commencement of coating system application to the substrate it shall be deemed that the Applicator has
certified that the surface which it is to be applied to is fit receive the specified coating(s) system. When the Applicator is preparing the site sample for approval he should advise the Project Superintendent if
the substrate condition is not of sufficient standard to produce the specified finish.
The substrates surface condition must be of consistent density/integrity and not subject to continual wetting,
hydrostatic pressure, spalling or other conditions that will cause premature coating failure
Application Procedure and Equipment
Note AcraSkin WP should comply with the installation instruction detailed in AS 4654.2 Waterproofing membranes for external above-ground use

Application Procedure and Equipment
Brush, Roller, Medium Textured Roller, Airless Spray. When cutting in edges, brush and roll-in a continuous process to avoid differences in gloss
level.
Application on single areas should be completed uninterrupted.
All independent tests are available on request.

Nap roller finish:
Apply 3 coats (minimum vertical surfaces) & 4 coats (for Horizonal surfaces) using a 10 - 20mm Nap roller at 4 sq.m / litre per coat.
Recommended System
Low profile texture (requires higher material consumption):
Apply 1 coat with a low profile black (med or fine) Texture Roller at 1.6 - 2 sq.m / litre
Apply a 2nd (finishing coat) with a low profile black (med or fine) Texture Roller at 1.6 - 2 sq.m / litre
Unused paint: Do not pour leftover paint down the drain. Unwanted paint should be brushed out on newspaper and allowed to dry, and then disposed of via domestic waste collections. Empty paint containers: Leave empty paint containers open in a well-ventilated area to dry out. When dry, recycle the container via steel can recycling programs. Disposal of empty paint containers via domestic recycling programs may differ between local authorities. Check with your local council first. Do not reuse container unless thoroughly decontaminated.
