Topcoats are used when enhanced dirt pick-up resistance is required, especially in cities where the atmosphere is highly polluted by industry and exhaust fumes.
There is also a topcoat which is specifically designed for use on Terol mineral based renders to ensure an enhanced long life finish.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
| Terracoat Stain |
Description | Consumption | Literature |
 |
A ready-mixed, elastomeric pigmented coating, especially designed as a topcoat for cementitious acrylic textured coatings, such as Terol Mineral Based Coatings. It can also be used to overcoat pigmented and non-pigmented Terracoat Textured Coatings. |
0.2 – 0.3 kg/m² in 2 coats depending on the surface being over coated. It is recommended to determine consumption rate on site prior to commencement. | |
| Packaging | Features & Benefits | Application | |
| 20 kg plastic pail |
Excellent dirt pick-up resistance, UV resistance and fade resistance. A low profile coating with minimum film build, allowing original granular appearance to be maximised. For use in areas where atmospheric pollution is a problem. Available in an attractive range of colours. |

| Kode 10 |
Description | Consumption | Literature |
 |
A hydrophobic clear topcoat designed for organic-mineral renders such as Terracoat and Terralite finishes. Kode 10 is based on a novel flouro-acrylic polymer which ensures excellent dirt pick-up resistance without any of the side effects of conventional hydrophobic treatments. This prevents the ingress of waterborne contaminates which cause discolouration. | 0.15-0.20 kg/m² depending on texture and surface conditions (2 coats). The application of 2 coats, applied cross-hatch, are recommended to ensure that the entire surface is coated. | |
