Dr. Fixit Raincoat Neo

Dr. Fixit Raincoat Neo is a water-based coating composed of high-quality acrylic emulsions, tough inorganic fillers, and special additives. When applied, it forms a thick, seamless membrane with a high film thickness (DFT). The elastomeric nature of the coating allows it to stretch and recover its shape, enabling it to move with the thermal expansion and contraction of the wall and effectively cover minor structural cracks. Its advanced formulation ensures a strong bond with the substrate while providing a breathable film that allows trapped moisture to escape.

Primary Applications:

Dr. Fixit Raincoat Neo is exclusively designed for application on vertical exterior surfaces, including:

• Exterior Masonry Walls: Ideal for all types of plastered and concrete walls.
• Building Facades: Provides long-term protection and decoration for residential homes, apartment complexes, and commercial buildings.
• Over Existing Sound Paint: Can be applied over previously painted surfaces, provided they are in good condition and properly prepared.

Method of Application:

For optimal performance, a systematic approach to application is crucial:

1. Surface Preparation: The wall surface must be thoroughly cleaned of all dust, dirt, grease, loose paint, and algae/fungus. Any major cracks or damages should be repaired with a suitable crack filler (like Dr. Fixit Crack-X) or polymer-modified mortar.
2. Primer Application: Apply one self-priming coat of Dr. Fixit Raincoat Neo by diluting 1 liter of the paint with 300 ml of water. This primer coat seals the porosity of the surface and creates a strong anchor for the topcoats. Allow the primer to dry for 4-6 hours.
3. Topcoat Application: Apply two undiluted coats of Dr. Fixit Raincoat Neo. The first coat should be applied and allowed to dry for 4-6 hours before applying the final, second coat. For best results, application should be done using a brush or roller.

Technical Specifications:

• Appearance: Coloured, viscous liquid
• Film Thickness: Achieves approximately 110-120 microns DFT in 2 coats
• Crack Bridging: Up to 2 mm
• Water Penetration: No penetration up to 7 bars of positive pressure
• Coverage: Approximately 3 to 3.5 sq. meters per liter for 2 coats (depending on surface texture and porosity).

In summary, Dr. Fixit Raincoat Neo is a comprehensive solution that offers superior waterproofing, long-term durability, and a beautiful decorative finish, making it one of the best choices for protecting and beautifying your home’s exterior.
