The walls of your house are painted and the facades glow brilliantly - what is that? Highly visible vertical stripes can damage the appearance.
ZEOFREE®600 prevents snails from crawling from the start
early cost-effective
your house walls are painted and facades glow - what is that? Highly visible vertical stripes can damage the appearance. For experts, it's clear that these are snail trails! Although this may sound like a gardener's problem at first, it is actually a common problem for almost all architectural coatings
.
"snail marks" usually appear after the first round of heavy rain hits the walls of buildings. Rainwater flushes water-soluble ingredients, such as additives or emulsions, out of the coating. The washed-out material flows down the wall, leaving ugly streaks, also known as snail marks.
so far, exterior paint manufacturers have tried to prevent snails from leaving traces by carefully selecting the ingredients. Some dispersants and adhesives are characterized by a significant reduction in snail growth trends, although this may cause new problems. The choice of new ingredients is severely restricted, which means that formulat designers need to carefully coordinate the ingredients - and pay more for this than the standard version.
Created's Coating Additives line takes a completely different approach to eliminating those annoying snail traces: the new ZEOFREE®600 additives are added to the coating during or after preparation, preventing snail traces from being produced from the start. Powder additives consist of calcium silicate with a particularly porous structure. ZEOFREE® 600 fine particles work like sponges - they absorb and retain water-soluble components. Now, if heavy rain hits the walls of a house, the rain won't wash away any material - the exterior wall looks as attractive as it did when it was first painted.
new additives are patented and are currently unique on the market. Tests conducted in accordance with the industry standard ASTM D 7190-10, as well as indoor rain simulation tests, have demonstrated their high oil absorption rates. Another benefit is that the new additives are harmless and meet EU Ecolabel 2014/312/EU standards.
ZEOFREE ®600 is suitable for all non-glossy paints from white to dark. Depending on the recipe, the recommended addition is between one and five percent. This is not only an effective solution for snail trails, but also a cost-effective alternative to the methods used to date.
