INFORMATION

Chameleon Multipurpose Primer and Topcoat has excellent adhesion to most types of substrates. It isolates and seals pores in wood and raw wood. It acts as an excellent primer for porous masonry surfaces: plasterboard, cement, fiberboard, concrete, etc. It covers stains from grease, soot, ink, wet stains, nicotine, coffee, etc. It contains a rust inhibitor (DIN 53.167: no rust formation on metal surfaces after 150 hours under aggressive salt solution) so that it can be used safely on many different metal surfaces.

Preparation

  • Apply to clean, dry and sound substrates. Remove loose material and all traces of rust, scale, grease or wax from the substrate. For effective coverage of existing stains on the substrate, apply two coats, allowing at least 6 hours to dry between coats. Stir to homogenize the contents before use. Preferably apply two coats (50-80 microns dry film) of Beissier Chameleon.
  • Clean tools with water immediately after use.
  • Metal surfaces: thorough cleaning and pre-treatment of the metal surface is essential for the proper performance of Beissier Chameleon to provide effective anti-corrosion protection. Remove rust and clean with Beissier Minoxil (see label for details).
  • Iron and steel: if necessary, sand or sandblast to remove rust. Wait 24/48 hours after applying Chameleon to coat with enamels when further anti-corrosion protection is required.
  • Zinc and galvanized iron: sand lightly with fine sandpaper. Due to the variety of galvanized irons, a prior adhesion test is recommended.
  • Aluminum, copper and brass: sand lightly with fine sandpaper.
  • PVC, fiberglass polyester and rigid plastics: clean with ammonia detergent, following the instructions and sand lightly.
  • New wood, wood panels and wood chips: apply protection against wood-eating insects beforehand.
  • Old painted walls: remove poorly glued and loose parts. Repair defects and fill holes with AGUAPLAST filler products. Lightly sand old layers of paint and remove dust. Use mild detergents to remove grease from synthetic enamels. Lightly sand and remove dust.

 

Application

  • Stir the product thoroughly before use. Dilution is not recommended. If necessary, add the minimum amount of water to achieve application consistency, maximum 5% for brush or roller application or 10% for spray gun application.
  • Excessive dilution will affect the properties of the paint: adhesion, anti-corrosion properties, etc.
  • Apply two coats of Chameleon evenly and allow to dry between coats. Can be overcoated with water-based and solvent-based finishes (not nitrocellulose).
  • Recommended final coat thickness: 100 microns (equivalent to two undiluted coats).
  • Theoretical coverage: approximately 10 – 12m2/l and per coat, depending on the type of substrate.
  • Recoating: 4 – 6 hours for water-based paints, 24 hours for synthetic enamels and 48 hours for polyurethane or epoxy paints. The product is usually dry after 24 hours at 20°C and 65% relative humidity.
