Black Hydro Pittura

Solvent-based protective and decorative paint, based on bitumen, aluminium paste, selected synthetic resins and special additives.

Solvent-based protective and decorative paint, based on bitumen, aluminium paste, selected synthetic resins and special additives.

  • Thermal insulation: once dry, it forms a film that creates a barrier with high reflectance to UV rays
  • Does not drip at high temperatures
  • Can also be applied in winter
  • Good covering power
  • Follows the movements and expansion of polymer bitumen membranes subjected to the most severe temperature changes
  • Longer life than traditional paints

Instructions for use

Stir the product before application. Apply Black Hydro Paint with a brush, scrub brush, roller or airless spray (it can be diluted with nitro thinner or common solvent-based bituminous primers). It is important that the paint is applied in a single direction, as application in different directions alters the ‘leafing’ of the aluminium paste. Bitumen polymer membranes finished on the surface with synthetic non-woven fabric can be painted immediately, but more than two coats must be applied in order to achieve sufficient coverage. Use common synthetic thinners to clean tools.

Storage

If stored in a dry, cool environment in its original sealed packaging, the product will keep for at least 24 months.

Warnings

On new bituminous surfaces, carry out a preliminary application test to verify the correct compatibility of the product with the substrate. However, we recommend waiting a few months after installing the new membrane to allow for the complete elimination of any bituminous hydrocarbons that may have surfaced. Do not apply to very hot substrates, as this would have a negative effect on the cohesion and adhesion of the product to the substrate. Store in the original packaging, tightly closed. Flammable product. Do not expose to temperatures >40 °C, heat sources, open flames or other sources of ignition. Follow the information on the safety data sheet.

It is used as a protective coating for exposed bitumen-polymer membranes applied either cold or hot, giving them a shiny silver appearance. It is suitable for painting smooth bitumen-polymer membranes placed on insulation packages. Suitable for metal structures of sheet metal roofs, gutters, flashings, metal boxes, tanks, chimneys and on ferrous and galvanised substrates in general.
