Water Repellant Coating
AQUAPHOBE WR2
Aquaphobe WR2 is a solvent-free, water-dilutable emulsion of organomodified polydimethylsiloxane resin. It serves as a silicone additive to create a pearling effect in water-based plasters and paints. It can also be diluted with water and used as a top coat without altering the substrate's appearance, potentially replacing Wacker Silres BS 1306.
Benefits of Aquaphobe WR2 include:
- Excellent water repellency and lotus effect
- Effective protection in heavy rain
- Resistance to de-icing salts
- Alkaline resistance
- Enhanced thermal insulation
- Non-tacky finish with stain release properties
Recommended dosages:
- 2% to 5% in water-based paint
- 10% dilution in water for a clear top coat
