Vandal-proof paint: what is it?
Vandal-proof paint is a composition that has many advantages. It is able to protect the surface not only from dirt, but also from mechanical stress. The surface painted with anti-vandal paint is easy to clean, including with special detergents. And the film formed by it is resistant to the vagaries of the weather, temperature drops, humidity and aggressive chemicals.
Does the anti-vandal paint differ from the usual one in some way in appearance? No. Like simple paints, it can be glossy, matte and any shade. There are no peculiarities of working with it either: it is applied with a roller, brush or using a spray. When dry, this formulation forms a film that does not adhere to other materials, so attempts to apply any other formulation over the film will fail.
Benefits of anti-vandal paint
Anti-vandal paint has many advantages over conventional paint. Its service life is from 10 years. The pigment is not afraid of direct sunlight, so the surfaces do not fade for a long time and retain their original freshness. The paint can be produced without pigment, in this version it gives a transparent film with all the distinctive properties.
The practical lack of adhesion does not allow applying a different composition over the paint, and even the scotch tape does not stick to it. There are so few volatile compounds in this paint that it is safe for humans and can be used not only in residential premises, but also in kindergartens and hospitals.
If this paint is used for metal products, it will work as an anti-corrosion protection.
Varieties of anti-vandal paint
This type of paint can vary in composition and base. If we consider the difference in composition, then paints are produced in liquid and powder. Liquid paints are no different from ordinary paints and can be used for exterior and interior work.
Powder paint is sold dry, and usually contains impurities: ceramics, metal or polymeric materials. To work with such paint, professional tools are needed, and the resulting surface after staining has a textured appearance, imitating stone, wood or even leather.
How to apply vandal-proof paint correctly
Vandal-proof paint can be applied in 1 or 2 coats. If you want to get a super-long-lasting version, then the first layer must be thinned by 10 percent, and after 2-3 hours, covered with a second, already undiluted layer. The main condition is application at a temperature not lower than 20 degrees. This mixture dries up to a day, the exact time depends on the characteristics of the composition and conditions in the room.
Painting tool - roller, brush or spray. The surface may have slight irregularities, but large cracks are best filled with a putty.
