The correct use: 2K varnish

You need

- 2K varnish (includes the base varnish including hardener)                   
- possibly painter's tape to cover the parts that do not need to be coated
Making off surfaces
- Paint roller or brush
- Descaler/degreaser
- If necessary, a thinner (this can also be
can then be used to clean the device)

Preparations

  1. The processing and especially the drying of 2-component paint should not take place below 10°C. This information refers to the paint material, substrate and room temperature during processing and the subsequent drying and curing time of five days. Temperatures that are too low lead to drying and hardening problems because the necessary chemical reaction cannot take place. Even a briefly cooler temperature can lead to problems.
  2. Sources of dust should be removed.
  3. Use painter's tape to mask the areas around the tiles that should not be coated (including silicone!).
  4. Clean, descale and degrease the surface thoroughly and then rinse it with water.
Important: do not use soapy cleaners or scouring milk (these are made from fatty acids and are therefore not suitable for dissolving grease).

    Processing

    1. The two components, i.e. paint and hardener, are mixed together in a certain ratio immediately before processing. For our paints the ratio is 5:1 (by volume/liters). This means that 5 parts varnish and 1 part hardener are measured and mixed using a measuring cup. Only as much paint should be mixed as is necessary for the work process. Once the hardener has been added, the hardening process can no longer be reversed. Stir the mixture well for at least 1 minute.
    2. The processing time for our 2K paints is around four to five hours. In addition to the pot life (time between mixing the paint and the end of the application), there is also a processing time during which optimal processing is possible. Afterwards, the processability and the painting result deteriorate, even if the paint is still liquid and no change can be seen. Therefore, please only mix as much paint as you need in one step.
    3. Now paint the surface. We recommend two thin coats to achieve optimal results.
    4. After approx. 60 minutes the paint is dust dry. After twelve hours you can easily remove the painter's tape.
