Application procedure Interior Walls
(Special effects, Sheen, Robbialac,
Super Acrylic Emulsion, PAWD, JAWD, Pearl Lustre)
- Surfaces must be cleaned, dried and freed from efflorescence
- Previously painted areas should be freed from loose or flaking particles, cleaned and
rubbed down
- Fill up the cracks/dents/uneven surfaces with Jensolin Wall Putty, rub down with sand
paper and wipe off the dust
- Apply 1 or preferably 2 coats of InstaColor Matching Primer or Jensolin Cement Primer
(oil based) or J&N Alkali Resistant Water Thinnable Cement Primer-Acrylic Base. The
first 2 primers should be thinned with good quality mineral turpentine oil and the last
with clean water.
- Apply 1 coat of plastic paint or distemper after appropriate thinning with clean water
(see instructions on container). Application can be done by brush, roller or spray.
- After first coat is dry (usually 4-6 hours is sufficient) apply second coat.
- In case of kitchens/bathrooms/high traffic areas 2 coats of glossy or semi-glossy enamel
paint is recommended.
Exterior Walls
Cement Paint (ROBBIACEM)
- New surfaces should be cleaned and freed from efflorescence
- Previously painted surfaces should be washed or brushed down but if the surface is in
powdery or flaking condition, it should be removed by scraping or wire-brushing.
- In case of areas affected by fungus or algae clean with wire-brush thoroughly and wash
with water. After drying apply one coat of Anti-fungal solution and allow to dry.
- Cement paints should not be used on non-absorbent surfaces such as glazed bricks or neat
cement finish or previously flat-oil/enamel painted surfaces.
- Cement paint – ROBBIACEM – is in powder form and requires thinning with clean
water. First mix to a creamy consistency by adding 3 volumes of Robbiacem to one volume of
water (always add Robbiacem to water and not the other way around). For brushable
consistency dilute the paste by adding further 2-3 volumes of clean water.
- Saturate the exterior wall surface with water
- Immediately after the excess surface water has disappeared, apply one coat of Robbiacem.
- After 4 to 6 hours sprinkle the surface with water again.
- When dry, usually overnight, wet the surface with water as done before first application
and apply a second coat of Robbiacem.
- Sprinkle water after 4 to 6 hours
- New surfaces should be cleaned and freed from efflorescence
- Previously painted surfaces should be washed or brushed down but if the surface is in
powdery or flaking condition, it should be removed by scraping or wire-brushing.
- For new surfaces, apply one coat of Robbiacem Cement Paint as base coat.
- Apply one coat of Quartz Finish thinned with 5-10% of clean water by volume.
- For previously painted surfaces we recommend a base coat of the Quartz Finish itself
(diluted one to one with water) and a final coat of Quartz Finish thinned with 5-10% clean
water by volume.
Acrylic Exterior Smooth Finish (SPECIAL EFFECTS EXTERIOR or
INSTACOLOR ACRYLIC EXTERIOR)
- New surfaces should be cleaned and freed from efflorescence
- Previously painted surfaces should be washed or brushed down but if the surface is in
powdery or flaking condition, it should be removed by scraping or wire-brushing.
- For new surfaces, apply one coat of Robbiacem Cement Paint as base coat.
- Apply 2 coats of Acrylic Exterior paint after thinning with 400 ml of clean water per 1
ltr of paint.
- For previously painted surface we recommend a base coat of Acrylic Exterior paint
diluted with equal volume of clean water. After drying apply 2 coats of Acrylic Exterior
paint after thinning with 400 ml of clean water per 1 ltr of paint.
- Never apply this paint on a rainy day or on damp surface.
Wood (Brolac, Super Enamel, Pearl
Lustre)
- Clean and smoothen the surface with sand paper
- Fill cracks and dents with Brolac Knifing Paste Filler
- Ensure knots are sealed with knotting varnish
- Apply one coat of Jensolin Pink or White primer or J&N Grey Primer
- Apply 2 coats of Brolac Polyurethane or InstaColor Super Enamel or InstaColor Pearl
Lustre.
Metal (Brolac, Super Enamel, Pearl Lustre)
- Remove rust and grease from surface by using if necessary, de-rusting/de-greasing
solutions or by scraping with wire-brush.
- Apply one coat of suitable metal primer like J&N Superior Red Oxide Primer or
J&N Red Oxide Zinc Chromate Primer or J&N Synthetic Red Lead Primer. The primer is
very important for its anti-corrosive properties.
- For aluminium and galvanised iron surfaces apply one coat of J&N Etch primer
followed by one coat of J&N Zinc Chromate primer.
- Apply 2 coats of Brolac Polyurethane or InstaColor Super Enamel or InstaColor Pearl
Lustre.
