Description, composition, advantages, disadvantages and features of XB 161 paints

Finishing work serves two main purposes. The first, the most obvious and the main one for most, is the creation of a decorative shell, an elegant external appearance of the building.

The second task lies in the plane of materials science and does not appear outwardly in any way, but its importance does not decrease from this. This is the protection of wall materials from the adverse effects of atmospheric moisture, low temperatures and other factors that pose a threat to building materials.

The very first layer that takes the maximum load is the façade paint, which serves as a protective barrier for all wall materials. The durability of all exterior finishing depends on its quality and performance characteristics, which ultimately determines the frequency and amount of costs for cosmetic repairs.

Features of XB-161

HB 161 perchlorovinyl facade paint, grade A B, is selected when the outside of the house should be painted in order to create a protective layer against the harmful effects of natural factors. The product can be used on different types of substrates, including concrete, wood, building stone, plasterboard, brick. In addition to reliable protection, the coating will have a good appearance and a matte effect.

Technology of façade cladding with perchlorovinyl paint

The master needs to protect himself before applying the product; for this, PPE is worn. The surface coating technology includes the steps described below:

The wall is cleaned and leveled. If there is plaster on the base that does not adhere well, then it is removed. Defects are smoothed out with a special solution;
Objects that may be damaged by painting are dismantled;
Painting should be done in dry weather, the walls should be dry, paint should be applied to areas where ultraviolet radiation does not touch. This requires gradual coloring of only those areas that are in the shade;
At low temperatures, it is unacceptable to use water to impart the required viscosity; replace it with solvent or xylene;
Application is carried out using conventional painting tools.

You can paint over old paint with perchlorovinyl.

Painting should be done in dry weather, the walls should be dry, paint should be applied to areas where ultraviolet radiation does not touch.

Paint consumption per m2

In order not to buy a ton of extra product, you should calculate the consumption. It is influenced by the thickness and number of layers, the type of base, and the chosen painting tool. If the base has a rough structure, then more product will be needed; if it has a smooth structure, then less.

The average is 150-200 grams per square meter. m. area. If you intend to apply two layers, then 500-600 grams.

If the base has a rough structure, then more product will be needed; if it has a smooth structure, then less.

Recommendations for use and application

In order to obtain the desired result, you should take into account the advice of specialists when painting yourself. It is recommended to place the substance in a building at room temperature for 12 hours before use. It is advisable to apply varnish before painting; varnish XB148 is suitable. You can add diluent no more than 10% of the total volume. The second layer is applied 24 hours after the first.

XB 161 is a paint that helps solve two problems at once - creating a beautiful decorative layer and protecting the facade. To get a high-quality result, you need to purchase the product from a trusted place and ask the seller for a certificate of quality and conformity. Painting is not difficult, you can do it yourself.

Application of material

Although applying HB paint is similar to painting with other dyes, it still has its own characteristics. First of all, this paint needs to be kept at room temperature for 8–12 hours to make it less viscous.

The surface to be painted must be free of dirt, grease stains and dust. It should also be smooth, for which you can use putty. Before applying paint, it is recommended to varnish the surface (for example, XB-148 varnish is suitable).

The paint must be stirred well throughout the entire working process, otherwise it will quickly thicken. If the composition nevertheless thickens, the question arises: how to dilute the paint? Xylene or solvent is suitable for this purpose. Measurement is important here: the specific gravity of solvents should not exceed a tenth of the total volume.

XB-161 is applied in two layers. The first is almost completely absorbed into the material being painted, but the second provides color depth, that is, a decorative effect. The break between applying layers is at least 24 hours.
