Characteristics

SANAXIL FIX is a product consisting of potassium silicates. It is highly breathable and is not subject to thermoplastic effects. It does not contain resins, solvents, thinners and harmful or toxic emanations. Free of V.O.C.

Consumption

Apply from 0.10 to 0.15 litres of SANAXIL FIX per square metre of surface to be treated.

Use fields

"Priming" fixative treatment of coatings, paints or putty coat based on lime putty, potassium silicate and siloxanes in general. Dust-proofing, reinforcing, cortical treatment for surfaces of pulverising plaster.

Preparation of supports

Organic type paints (washable, solvent-based etc.) where present, must be thoroughly removed. The support should, in any case, be, clean, homogeneous, compact, dust-free.

Use method

SANAXIL-FIX can be applied to substrates in masonry, on cement surfaces, lime-based surfaces, on well anchored mineral paints. They can be applied by brush, roller or spray: the number of coats required and the most appropriate dilution ratio with water will be determined as a function of the absorption conditions and degradation of the support. The admissible dilution range provides for additions of water up to a maximum ratio of 1:1.
