Product Description
SIGMA SILK –A Velvet Touch emulsion is an interior architectural coating specially formulated to give smooth velvet finish with a unique soft sheen and smoothness to walls and ceilings.
Surface Preparation
Proper substrate preparation is a must to get the desired finish. New concrete / plaster surface should be allowed to mature properly. Ensure surface is clean, dry, free from all loose particles, dust, dirt, grease before application. All surfaces should be thoroughly rubbed down using a suitable abrasive paper and thereafter wiped off. Suitable remedial measures should be taken in case of water seepage / leakage problem. Fungus affected areas need separate treatment.
Priming
Prime surface with a coat of Sigma's Interior Primer or with any Water Based Cement Primer and dry overnight. Use a mixture of 1 part of Sigma Silk with one part of oil- based putty to rectify and smoothen out the surface. Allow drying for 4-6 hours. Sand the surface with Emery Paper 180. Wipe off loose particles. Apply another coat of primer. Allow drying for 4-6 hours. Sand the surface with Emery paper 380 and wipe clean.
Finishing
Apply two coats of Sigma Silk, thinned with 500 ml of water for 1 litre of paint. It can be applied by brush and roller and conventional / airless spray. Normally two coats of paint are sufficient for complete opacity and desired finish. Where a colour change is required, an extra coat of Sigma Silk is recommended. Normally touch dry in 30 minutes and recoatable after 4 hours.
