PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Nippon Paint Solaroof is a high-performance, water-based acrylic coating specifically designed for various types of roof surfaces. Formulated with advanced Solar Reflective Technology, it significantly reduces surface temperature by reflecting solar infrared radiation, which helps lower indoor temperatures and reduce energy consumption for cooling. This eco-friendly "Green Choice" product provides excellent weather resistance, UV protection, and long-lasting color retention. It is ideal for metal roof sheets, clay tiles, and cement roof tiles, offering a durable protective shield against harsh tropical climates while preventing fungus and algae growth.

Application Instructions

• Mixing: Stir the paint thoroughly before use to ensure a uniform distribution of reflective pigments.

• Dilution: Ready for use. If thinning is necessary for workability, use only clean water as specified.

• Cleaning: Clean all tools and equipment with clean water immediately after use.

• Note: Avoid application during midday heat if the roof surface is too hot, as the paint may dry too quickly and affect adhesion. Do not apply if rain is expected within 2-3 hours.

Recommended Coating System

For Metal Roofs:

• Primer (1 Coat): Aquatec 1900 Arcylic Primer / Etching Primer 120.

• Topcoat (2 Coats): Solaroof.

For Cement / Clay Roof Tiles:

• Sealer (1 Coat): 5100 Wall Sealer / 8100 Weatherbond Sealer.

• Topcoat (2 Coats): Solaroof.

Surface Preparation

• General Cleaning: Surfaces must be structurally sound, dry, clean, and free from dirt, grease, oil, and loose matter.

• Debris Removal: Remove all loose or defective paint, rust, and powdery residues by scraping, wire brushing, or high-pressure water jetting.

• Rust Treatment: For metal roofs, ensure all rusted areas are treated and primed with a suitable anti-corrosive primer.

• Biological Treatment: Treat areas affected by fungus or algae growth with Nippon Paint Fungicidal Wash and rinse thoroughly before painting.

• Dryness: The roof surface must be completely dry before application. Trapped moisture can lead to bubbling or peeling.
