| Acrylic Coating for Autoclaved Aerated Concrete |
ACRYL M is a premixed, acrylic coating especially formulated to protect autoclaved aerated concrete panels with a colorful decorative appearance. Unlike ordinary paint coatings, ACRYL M exhibits high coating thickness and elasticity, while maintaining high vapor permeability to provide a long lasting finish.
| Advantages |
High build coating thickness of 1mm High water resistance Vapor permeable High UV resistance Long term durability High elasticity Capable of machine application Unlimited color possibilities Fast drying |

Surface Preparation |
All bases to receive ACRYL M must be clean, and free of grease, oil, dirt, paint, and other foreign residues. Old autoclaved aerated concrete areas must be pre-coated with ACRYL PRIME to ensure adhesion. |
| Mixing | Mixing: ACRYL M is to be applied in two layers. The first coat is diluted with 20% water (approximately 3 quarts). The second coat is diluted with 5% water (approximately 1 1/2 pints). Mix with low speed drill. |
| Application |
Apply ACRYL M in two coats. The first coat is rolled on in two different directions to insure proper coverage. Once dry the second coat is rolled on with a neoprene foam roller to achieve the finished texture. Care should be taken to roll in the same direction to achieve a uniform appearance. |
| Precautions | To prevent cold joints, apply coating finish in complete areas and schedule stops at naturally occurring breaks and joints. Do not apply if temperature is expected to drop below 40° F within 12 hours of application. |
| Drying Time | Depending on the temperature and humidity, coating film dries in 4 to 12 hours. |
| Cleaning | Immediately after use, rinse with water. Protect other surfaces from contact with coating. |
| Coloring | ACRYL M is available in a wide variety of standard colors. Custom color matching is available upon request. |
