Description
Wykamol ThermalDry Anti Condensation Paint
Wykamol ThermalDry Anti Condensation Paint is a styrene acrylic co-polymer dispersion water based coating which is thermally insulating and water repelling.
By incorporating Micro-technology in the form of hollow glass beads (with a size of 50um and a crush strength of 500 psi), these beads act like a miniature ‘Thermos Flask’, reflecting thermal energy away from the walls, preventing the water from condensing, forming on walls and growing mould.
This Anti Condensation Paint also increases the wall temperature, thus reducing the ‘dew point’ or the temperature at which condensation occurs.

Application
Substrate Preparation:
Ensure surface is free from mould and fungus using
Remove any loose paint or wallpaper, grease and oil stains. Any cracks must be filled using a crack filler and left to set before application can commence.
For coating over plastic or metal, it is advisable to complete a test on the substrate first.
Mixing:
Upon opening the tin, gently stir the medium in order to ensure glass bubbles are evenly spread throughout.
DO NOT USE mechanical stirrer as this could damage the glass beads.
Application Method:
Wykamol ThermalDry is designed for easy application with either a brush or roller.
Allow 2-4 hours between application of coats. A two-coat application is necessary to achieve maximum effectiveness.
Do not apply Wykamol ThermalDry below 5°C or above 30°C.
Curing:
Allow for 2-4 hours between application of second coat of Wykamol ThermalDry and before applying chosen finish.
Coverage:
Approximately 4m² - 5m² per Litre, based on a two-coat application.
