REMAL Profi is a water-based paint suitable as a drywall paint. Due to its specific formulation, it features high opacity and abrasion resistance. It covers excellently, is breathable, abrasion-resistant, and has a high whiteness of 91%. It is used for painting plasters, concrete, drywall, cement boards, particle boards, and renovation plasters in interiors. The drywall paint shows wet abrasion resistance – measured according to ČSN EN ISO 11998 – class 5. (classification according to EN 13300).
REMAL Profi paint with enhanced resistance and natural whiteness is a suitable paint for drywall not only for offices. REMAL Profi drywall paint is also used as a base for tinting in the TELURMIX tinting system. It is recommended for interior coatings of walls and ceilings, drywall, renovation plasters, and other substrates in residential and office spaces. It is easy to process, health-safe, and environmentally friendly.
It is produced in a non-standardized white shade. Intended for tinting in the TELURMIX tinting system. Red and orange shades may have limited color fastness under certain application conditions (immature substrate with high pH) or conditions in the building (UV radiation) due to the chemical composition of the red pigment.
Before painting, remove layers of old and non-adhering coatings. Treat areas affected by mold with REMAL Sanal renovation agent for masonry V1406 according to the instructions. Treat absorbent substrates with REMAL universal primer, non-adhering and crumbling substrates with REMAL deep primer. This will remove dust from the surface, strengthen it, unify absorption, and ensure adhesion of the coating. The drying time is 4 hours. For preventive anti-mold effect, you can use REMAL anti-mold deep primer. Smooth unevenness on the wall with REMAL filler. For problematic areas (water stains, etc.), it is advisable to use REMAL Spot-ceiling isolation coating.
Dilute the mold-resistant paint in a ratio of max. 0.4 l of water per 1 kg of paint. Then thoroughly mix the mold-resistant paint. Apply with a brush, roller, or spray in 2 coats, applying the next coat after the previous has dried, at least after 4 hours. The optimal temperature for applying mold-resistant paint is 15 to 25 °C. The substrate and environment temperature must not drop below 5 °C during application. For large areas, use products from one batch; mix different batches together before use.
When working, observe basic hygiene rules. The product is not intended for coatings coming into direct contact with food, animal feeds, drinking water, nor for coatings on children's toys and children's furniture. Keep out of reach of children. If you feel unwell, seek medical assistance.
The product is treated with a biocide. It contains 1,3,5-tris(2-hydroxyethyl)hexahydro-1,3,5-triazine, 1,2-benzoisothiazol-3(2H)-one+, octhilinone (ISO), reaction mixture: 5-chloro-2-methylisothiazol-3(2H)-one [EC number 247-500-7] and 2-methylisothiazol-3(2H)-one [EC number 220-239-6] (3:1). It may cause an allergic reaction.
covering materials, such as masking tape or covering film, or sanding papers. Don't forget brushes, rollers, spatulas, and knives.
This international standard ISO EN 11998 describes an accelerated method for determining wet abrasion resistance and washability of paint. Regarding the cleanability of the coatings, it establishes only the test method itself but does not specify the contaminating substances. After drying and conditioning, the painted sample is weighed and subjected to cleaning cycles wet in the testing abrasion (cleaning) device. From the loss of weight, the average thickness loss of the coating is calculated. For determining cleanability, contaminating substances are applied to similarly prepared samples. Specified contaminating substances are allowed to remain in contact with the coating film for the prescribed time. The coated, contaminated samples are then subjected to cleaning cycles. It is evaluated whether the contaminating substance has been removed and whether the coating is resistant to wet abrasion.
For evaluation, 5 classes are used - class 1 is the best – class 5 is the worst. Graded like in school.
How often should you paint?
It is generally recommended to paint every 4 to 5 years. However, if you have small children or pets in the family, for hygienic and aesthetic reasons, it is advisable to repaint approximately every 2 years.
