Super Decor rubber paint: advantages and scope

Super Decor rubber paint is a popular finishing material and is in high demand in the construction market. The release of these products is carried out by the production association "Rubber paints" of the "Baltikolor" company.

A distinctive characteristic of rubber paints is the ability to form a durable and elastic coating on the surface to be painted, which has high flexibility and water resistance. The enamels are intended for painting complex substrates with low porosity and characterized by a smooth surface and poor absorbency. Hard-to-paint surfaces include laminate, plastic and metal. Previously, for their high-quality painting, it was required to apply special primers that increase the adhesion of the base with an enamel coating and the use of special paints and varnishes.

The demand and high consumer demand for Super Decor rubber paints are due to the following advantages of the material:

• The flexibility and elasticity of the formed film prevents cracking and flaking. When staining wooden surfaces, the wood becomes similar to plastic, and when wet, the paint layer stretches along with the wood. This ensures reliable protection of wooden surfaces from moisture penetration and prevents the appearance of mold and mildew. This property of rubber paint makes it possible to paint easily deformable surfaces without the risk of delamination and peeling of the decorative layer;
• High wear resistance and durability of the emulsion make it possible to use the material under any conditions. The paint tolerates direct exposure to ultraviolet rays and atmospheric precipitation, it is heat- and frost-resistant and has high waterproofing properties. The paint is not afraid of sudden temperature jumps and retains its properties in the range from -50 to 60 degrees;

• Anti-slip effect makes it possible to use the emulsion for painting floors and roofs;
• Noble appearance. The paint is compatible with any color scheme, which gives a wide scope for creativity and helps to realize the most daring design decisions;
• Environmental safety and hygiene of the emulsion allow it to be used in residential and public spaces without risk to human health. High moisture-repellent properties make it possible to regularly wash the surface without fear of damaging the decorative layer. Despite its high moisture resistance, the paint is good air permeability and allows the surface to breathe. Due to the absence of solvents in the composition, the enamel dries quickly and does not have a pungent odor;

• Excellent adhesion rates ensure excellent adhesion of the paint layer to metal, wood, plastic, slate and any other material. Throughout the entire service life, the paint does not flake, crack or bubble.
• The incombustibility of the material increases the fire safety of the painted room;
• One liter of rubber paint is enough to paint five square meters of surface in two layers.

SuperDecor rubber paint appeared on the construction market relatively recently, but in a short time it managed to gain popularity and numerous positive reviews.It consists of water, acrylate latex, coalescent, antifreeze, preservative and special additives in the form of a color scheme and color pigment. In its consistency, the paint resembles mastic. It is one of the few materials that can be used to paint galvanized iron.

If necessary, the paint is diluted with water. The use of solvents is not recommended. The drying time of the painted surface is from 30 to 60 minutes and depends on the humidity of the air and the temperature conditions of the external environment. One liter contains 1.1 kg of enamel. Material consumption on painted and primed bases is 120-150 grams per square meter, on wallpaper, chipboard, drywall and fiberboard - 190 g, on concrete and plaster - 250 g. The paint is produced according to TU 2316-001-47570236-97 and has the necessary quality and conformity certificates.

Rubber emulsions are universal and are used for all types of paintwork. The paint is well applied and lasts a long time on concrete, wallpaper, putty, brick, chipboard and fiberboard, wood, asbestos-cement, asphalt surfaces and on galvanized iron. The material can be applied to surfaces previously painted with all types of paints: alkyd, acrylic, latex and oil. The emulsion can be used to strip asphalt and running tracks, tennis courts, and can also be used to paint roofs, fences, gazebos, walls and floors. Due to its good plasticity, it perfectly smoothes small cracks and seams, hides irregularities and gives the surface an attractive appearance.

Rubber paint is often used to paint dams, dams and pipes, and excellent waterproofing properties allow you to paint the bottom of the pool with an emulsion. It is not recommended to use Super Decor rubber enamel for painting doors and furniture.

In the process of working with Super Decor rubber emulsion, it is advisable to follow some recommendations:

• In the process of choosing a material, the purpose of the emulsion should be taken into account. Many manufacturers produce products with a narrow focus, where a specialized paint is provided for each surface. For example, material for outdoor work contains more frost-resistant additives, and an emulsion intended for concrete contains an increased volume of acrylic latex;
• If the repair work is postponed indefinitely, then when buying, you should pay attention to the shelf life of the material. You should also read the accompanying documentation. This will help to avoid the acquisition of a fake and will act as a guarantor of the high quality of the goods;

• Before painting, the surface of untreated wood must be sanded and treated with an antiseptic compound. Metal bases must be cleaned of contamination and degreased. It is advisable to prime concrete walls, and wash alkyd and oily surfaces with a solution of soda or sodium phosphate;
• It is necessary to paint in calm weather and at a relative humidity of not more than 80%. Direct exposure to sunlight during work is also not recommended;
• To obtain a deeper color and increase the wear resistance of the coating, it is desirable to apply the rubber paint in several thin layers. The time interval between staining should be at least two hours;
• Treatment of a freshly painted surface with antiseptic and detergent compositions can be performed no earlier than 7 days after the completion of work.

A wide variety of shades and a wide scope of use of rubber emulsion allow for unique design developments.

• The bathtub painted with Super Decor blends harmoniously with the color of the room.
• Anti-slip rubber coating is ideal for floors.

• Roof paint will reliably protect the roof from destruction and decorate the facade.
• The rubber emulsion will make the pool look stylish and airtight.
