Field of Application
High-grade synthetic resin dispersion/emulsion binder, used for self-preparing exterior and interior paints. Also suitable for priming, upgrading distemper paints, and as an additive for wall paper glue to achieve a sufficient adhesion of dense wallpapers and fabrics, for gloss-coatings, semi-transparent glaze/scumbling coats (thin film translucent coating), artistic paint work, etc.Upgrading of Distemper Paints:
The wash/wipe resistance of distemper paints can be improved by adding approx. 5 - 10 % of Binder.
Semi-Transparent Glaze/Scumbling Coats:
Dilute 2 parts of Binder with 1 part of tap (potable) water and add ready-made emulsion based colourants, e.g. AVA (AmphiColor®) or CaparolColor, depending on the desired effect.
Bonding of Wallpapers and Fabrics:
The adhesive power and initial adhesion of glues used for dense wallpapers and glass fabrics can be improved by adding up to 20 % Binder.
Self-Prepared Paint:

Parts by volume | Binder | 1 | 1 |
Pigmented slurry/pulp | 2 | 3 | |
Parts by weight | Binder | 1 | 1 |
Paint | 2 | 3 | |
Water | 1 | 1.5 |
Material Properties
The field of application for Binder as a universal dispersion/emulsion binder is wide.The binder is a well proven and very versatile product, especially for use in the associated areas that arise from painting work, e.g. restorative painting.
