ThermoSan Innovative silicone-resin binder combination with integrated Nano-Quartz Matrix Structure providing clean façades. Protected against algal and fungal attack. Consequent further development of the Caparol Clean Concept. Product Description Field of Application High-tech façade paint with the essential benefit: Organically cross-linked nano-quartz particles form a compact, mineral-hard, three-dimensional quartz matrix structure against soiling and keep façades clean for a longer period. The special silicone resin/binder combination generates water-repellent, highly water vapour permeable façade paint coatings on mineral and synthetic resin-bound (organic) renders/plasters, coated or uncoated. ThermoSan is suitable for all types of current, sound ETICS/EWI system surface coatings, e.g. synthetic resin (organic), silicone resin, silicate-based and lime-cement renders/plasters. Material Properties Material Base / Vehicle Packaging/Package Size Provided with a film preservative, effective against algal and fungal (mildew/mould) attack. Alkali-resistant, hence unsaponifiable. Highly CO2 permeable. Non-film-forming, micro-porous. ThermoSan is able to wash fine cracks in render/plaster surfaces. Contains special pigments, showing a photocatalytic effect. Combined silicone resin emulsion and new type of hybrid binder, on an organic/inorganic basis. ■ Standard Product: 12.5 litres ■ ColorExpress: 7.5 litres and 12.5 litres White ThermoSan can be tinted with AmphiSilan colourants. If more than one bucket is manually tinted, all product must be thoroughly mixed before use in order to avoid colour differences. Quantities of 100 litres or more in individual colour shades may be ordered ready-tinted ex factory. ThermoSan can be tinted via the ColorExpress tinting & mixing machine system in limited colour shades of current colour collections. Check tinted product prior to the application to avoid colour differences. Always use tinted paint of the same batch, when applying on seamless surfaces. Brilliant, intensive colour shades may have a lower opacity (hiding/covering power). It is therefore advisable to apply a first coat in a similar hiding pastel tint, based on white. A second finishing coat might be necessary. Colour Resistance according to BFS Data Sheet No. 26: Class: A Group: 1 Gloss Level Storage Matt (flat) G3 Keep in a cool, but frost-free place.

Technical Information No. 156 Fair-Faced Brick Masonry: Only fair-faced bricks or clinker bricks of frost resistant quality and free of foreign inclusions that leave marks are suitable for coats of paint. Masonry must be dry and free of salts/salty efflorescence, jointing must be free of cracks. Apply one priming coat of AmphiSilan-Putzfestiger. If brownish discolouration occurs in the intermediate coat, recoat with solvent-based façade paint Duparol. Sand-Lime Brick Masonry: Only frost resistant fair-faced bricks, free of foreign inclusions that leave marks, e.g. sand or loam, are suitable...
