SILANE DCZ 6020 is an alkyd polysiloxane oligomer designed to protect facades against damp.
SILANE DCZ 6020 repels water and allows walls to breathe.
Experience acquired over more than thirty years shows that silicone water repellents are a good solution, especially when treating building materials that must retain their natural appearance.
 

Impregnation with SILANE DCZ 6020 prevents rain and runoff water penetrating walls and facades, whilst allowing them to breathe.

    SILANE DCZ 6020 has been specially formulated to give the following advantages:
•    QUICK DRYING on all neutral and alkaline substrates. This means that the BEADING EFFECT is noticeable within a few hours of application.
•    GOOD PENETRATION POWER in all standard materials.
•    HIGH WATER PENETRATION RESISTANCE by capillary action.
•    VERY SLIGHT CHANGE in the MATERIAL’S NATURAL POROSITY
•    OUTSTANDING RESISTANCE TO AGEING AGENTS (freeze, thaw, U.V., etc.) due to the stable structure of the siloxane bonds that form with the substrate’s reactive groups.
•    PAINTABILITY with most aqueous dispersion type paints, for example vinyl, acrylic, silicone paints, or pliolites (prior testing essential).
This product also exhibits the following characteristics:
•    Non-toxicity
•    High flash point
•    Excellent stability during storage

Preparing a solution ready for use
The product should be diluted before application. For example, 10 litres of SILANE DCZ 6020 may be diluted to make up 100 litres of solution ready for use.
 Preparing the walls
•    This type of treatment is intended only for vertical or steeply sloping surfaces.
•    The walls must be:

Dry:
wait at least 24 hours after rain, or if the wall has been cleaned with high pressure water, wait 3 days (in dry weather).

Preparation:
-Brush off any loose material (from crumbling, powdery or encrusted walls).
-Fill in cracks more than 0.3 mm wide.
-clean any dirty surfaces.
The use of acidic or alkaline chemical detergents and cationic surfactants should be avoided in all circumstances.
-it is advisable to wait 28 days before treating fresh masonry.

 Method of application
Brushing:
Small areas on very rough material may be using treated a flat brush or a roller (which may be fed continuously with an AIRLESS pump).
Spraying:
Use an AIRLESS spray gun with a variable jet nozzle.
