Product Overview
DESCRIPTION
ClimoPlate ™ is a New Zealand manufactured Alkyd / Bitumen co-polymer, solvent / water emulsion based top coat paint developed primarily for New Zealand outdoor conditions.
ClimoPlate ™ is specifically but not exclusively formulated to act as a top coat over bitumen based sealers such as our GilsoFlex™ and FlexsoTar™ products. It is ideally suited for painting of exposed metal roofs, cement tile roofs and steel structures. It is compatible and suitable to be used on Decramastic and Bitumen roofs.
ClimoPlate ™ can also be used on other substrates like timber etc.
Climoplate top coat paint is the best roof paint NZ has.
Because of its disinfecting effect, it will retard the growth of moss or lichen.
Substrate surface preparation requirements are minimal.
Roof requires one top coat paint only and One (1) Litre will cover approximately 4 to 8 Square Meters, depending on roof surface.
- 4ltr will cover approximately 16 to 32 Square Meters
- 10ltr will cover approximately 40 to 80 Square Meters
- 20ltr will cover approximately 80 to 160 Square Meters
ClimoPlate ™ is intended primarily for surface application by brushing, rolling or airless spraying.
A re-coat might be required after 8 to 10 years.
We are in the process of adding more colours to our range. (Please ask via "eMail" if you would like us to match a specific colour for you, and we will advise).
Please note you can now select your prefered product packaging.
