Akrostop sealing paint

Description

Waterborne acrylate sealing paint. Prevents bleeding caused by nicotine, smoke, liquid drawing ink and hides dried moisture damaged spots.

Akrostop is suitable for both initial and maintenance painting of concrete, plaster, brick, putty, fibreboard, plasterboard, wood, panel, log and woodfibreboard surfaces according to instructions. Also suitable for other objects in which the risk of bleeding is obvious. Akrostop can also be applied on tile, plastic and zinc-coated surfaces, but the proper adhesion must be tested. Akrostop is not suitable for use on iron or steel.

Examples of use

Interior walls and ceilings, MDF, areas prone to bleed through
