FAQs

Can I use this paint to touch up scratches on the face of the board?

This product is specifically formulated for sealing cut ends. While it may cover minor scratches, it is not designed as a general-purpose surface repair coating.

How long does it take to dry?

Drying times vary based on ambient temperature and humidity, but typically the paint is touch-dry within 30 to 60 minutes.

Is one 0.5L container enough for a whole house?

Yes, for standard projects, 0.5L is sufficient for sealing the cut ends associated with typical cladding installations.

Do I need to prime the cut edge first?

No, this paint is designed to be applied directly to the raw fibre cement edge without the need for a separate primer.

Can I apply this in freezing temperatures?

It is recommended to apply this product in temperatures above 5°C to ensure proper curing and adhesion.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears slightly lighter or darker than the board.

Ensure the board surface is clean and free of dust. If the board is significantly weathered, the touch-up paint will match the factory finish, not the faded board.

Paint is too thick for smooth application.

Ensure the container was shaken thoroughly. If stored for a long period, stir gently with a clean wooden dowel until the consistency is uniform.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Prevents water absorption at board edges
  • Maintains aesthetic continuity of the facade
  • Easy to apply with standard brushes
  • Specifically color-matched for SwissPearl Grey
  • Provides a necessary protective barrier for warranty compliance

Cons

  • Not intended for large surface area coverage
  • Color may not perfectly match cladding that has faded due to long-term UV exposure
  • Limited to 0.5L volume size

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best results, start by cleaning the cut edge of the fibre cement board to remove any dust or debris created during the cutting process. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the edge clean.

Application Tips:

  1. Shake the container thoroughly before use to ensure proper pigment distribution.
  2. Apply the paint in a dry, well-ventilated area.
  3. Allow the painted edge to air dry completely before installation.

Compatibility: This product is designed specifically for SwissPearl fibre cement boards. While it may adhere to other fibre cement surfaces, color matching cannot be guaranteed.

Storage: Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature thickening of the paint.
