Capalac SuperWeiß
High gloss, PU alkyd resin-based white enamel.
For exterior and interior use.
Field of Application
White enamel/top-coat lacquer for high-quality coatings on wood, metals and unplasticized (rigid) PVC, exteriors and interiors. Do not use on heating systems.Due to a typical odour of alkyd resin varnishes (alkyd enamels), it is advisable to use Capacryl PU-Gloss for coatings on large, seamless interior surfaces instead.
Material Properties
- Non-aromatic solvent
- High degree of whiteness
- High resistance to yellowing
- Brilliant gloss
- Elegant and easy application
- High stability (low sagging)
- High covering power on edges
- Excellent opacity (hiding/covering power)
- High impact strength and shock resistance
- Long open time
- Resistant to common household cleaning agents (detergents) and short-term resistance against weak acids and alkalis
- High weather resistance and lightfastness
- Fast-drying
- Superior flow
Material Base / Vehicle
Polyurethane alkyd resin, solvent-based, free of aromatic hydrocarbons.Packaging/Package Size
- White:
750 ml, 2,5 litres - Off-White:
2,5 litres
Colours
White (Weiß), Off-White (Altweiß)
Note: A material typical yellowing effect may occur on the surface of white/off-white and light-coloured alkyd enamels (caused by low UV radiation, heat or chemical influences due to e.g. ammonia vapour from detergents, adhesives, paint or sealing compounds). This yellowing is no product defect and cannot be objected.
Colour Resistance according to BFS Data Sheet No. 26:
Binder: Class B
Pigmentation: Group 1
Gloss Level
High gloss

Determine the exact amount of material required by coating a test area on site.
Application Conditions
Lower Temperature Limit for Application and Drying:+5 °C for product, substrate and ambient air.
Relative humidity must not exceed 80 %.
Drying/Drying Time
At 20 °C and 65 % relative humidity | dust dry | touch dry | recoatable (brush) | recoatable (spray) |
| after hours | 3 | 5 | 8 | 8 - 16 |
Lower temperatures, higher humidity and higher quantities of applied material extend the drying time.
Tool Cleaning
Immediately after use with white spirit.Special Risks (Hazard Note) / Safety Advice (Status as at Date of Publication)
Flammable liquid and vapour. Harmful to aquatic life with long lasting effects. If medical advice is needed, have product container or label at hand. Keep out of reach of children. Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking. Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Avoid release to the environment. IF ON SKIN (or hair): Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water. Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking. Contains bis(1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidyl) sebacate, methyl 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidyl sebacate. May produce an allergic reaction. Use P2 dust filter for grinding. Do not breathe spray dust. Use A2/P2 combination filter for paint spraying.Disposal
Materials and all related packaging must be disposed of in a safe way in accordance with the full requirements of the local authorities. Particular attention should be made to removing wastage from site in compliance with standard construction site procedures.In Germany: Only completely empty containers should be handed in for recycling. Dispose containers with residues of liquid product via waste collection point accepting old paints and enamels. Dispose dried/hardened product residues as construction site/demolition/municipal or domestic waste.
