PerformaSil® 200 Anti-Graffiti Coating Surface Preparation & Application

PerformaSil® 200 Anti-Graffiti Coating is a single component, water-based silicone elastomer that dries to form a tough, durable film which provides long-lasting graffiti and water protection.

It cures to form a breathable membrane that is impervious to water and protects surfaces from spray paint, marker, and felt tip pens. Graffiti is easily removed with a power washer, scrub brush, or commercial graffiti cleaners.

Prior to application all surfaces shall be structurally sound, clean, and dry, free from oils, dirt, debris, or minerals such as efflorescence, lime, and calcium. To ensure the surface is as clean as possible, wash with soap and water, rinse thoroughly, then allow to dry completely. This is especially important when applying over painted, stained, or wood surfaces.

Mix thoroughly before application. Avoid aggressive agitation that may produce excessive air generation or foaming.

Apply using a low-pressure airless spray equipment at a rate of approximately 75 sq ft per gallon. Create a sufficient film build to achieve a wet film thickness of 20 mils. When spraying, apply in a cross hatched pattern to ensure complete coverage of the surface. For maximum graffiti protection, apply the coating in two (2) coats at a rate of approximately 150 sq ft per gallon (10 mils WFT) per coat. Allow the coating to dry to the touch (2-3 hours) before applying second coat.

Clean equipment with soap and water when finished.

Application Temperature: 40°F - 100°F (5°C - 38°C)

Relative Humidity: 90% maximum

Graffiti resistance and weather protection is fully developed after a cure time of 7-14 days.

Test the product on a small area to ensure finish is satisfactory.
