Product Information
Full details
The FabioT. RT 2K Polyurethane Texture Paint in Green is a premium, semi-gloss textured topcoat designed for industrial applications like machinery, tools, lockers, and steel structures. Its key benefit is providing a durable, protective, and aesthetically pleasing finish that hides surface imperfections. A caveat to consider is that it's a 2K (two-component) system, requiring careful mixing of paint, hardener, and thinner.

FAQs
What is the pot life of the mixed paint?
The pot life (the time the mixed paint remains usable) is dependent on temperature and the specific hardener used. Always consult the product's technical data sheet for precise pot life information.
Can this paint be applied with a brush or roller?
While designed for spray application (spray gun or airless), some users may attempt brush or roller application. However, achieving a uniform textured finish and optimal performance is best guaranteed with spray equipment.
How long should I wait between coats?
Refer to the technical data sheet for recoat times. Generally, allow sufficient flash-off time for solvents to escape before applying the next coat, typically ranging from 15-30 minutes depending on conditions.
What is the recommended film thickness?
Refer to the product's technical data sheet for the recommended dry film thickness (DFT) per coat to achieve optimal protection and appearance.
Is thinning required for application?
Yes, thinning with the specified thinner is typically required to achieve the correct viscosity for spray application. The amount of thinner to add can vary based on application method and temperature.
What is the warranty period for this paint?
Please refer to the manufacturer's official documentation or contact FabioT. customer support for information regarding warranty periods and terms.
Can I apply this over existing paint?
It can be applied over existing, soundly adhered coatings, provided they are compatible and properly prepared. For best results, especially on bare metal, a suitable primer is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Paint not curing or drying properly
Ensure the correct ratio of hardener was mixed with the paint. Verify that the ambient temperature is within the recommended application range and that humidity levels are not too high.
Poor adhesion or peeling
The surface may not have been properly prepared. Ensure it was clean, dry, and free from contaminants like oil or grease. A suitable primer may be required for certain substrates.
Uneven texture or application marks
Check spray equipment settings (pressure, nozzle size) and application technique. Ensure consistent material flow and spray pattern. Stirring the mixture frequently during application can help maintain texture uniformity.
Runs or sags in the coating
This can be due to applying the paint too thickly or improper spray technique. Apply in thinner, even coats, allowing proper flash-off time between coats. Reduce spray gun distance if necessary.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Provides a durable, textured finish that hides surface imperfections.
- Excellent resistance to impacts, chemicals, solvents, UV, and weather.
- High adhesion ensures a strong bond to metal surfaces.
- Suitable for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.
- Comes in a convenient kit bundle with paint, hardener, and thinner.
Cons
- As a 2K system, it requires precise mixing of components (paint, hardener, thinner).
- Requires appropriate safety equipment and ventilation due to its chemical composition.
- Application may require specialized spraying equipment for optimal results.
- The semi-gloss texture might not be suitable for all aesthetic preferences.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This product is a 2K system and requires mixing the paint, hardener, and thinner in the specified ratios before application. Always refer to the product's technical data sheet for precise mixing instructions and pot life. Ensure the application area is well-ventilated and wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including a respirator, gloves, and eye protection.
Compatibility:
Designed for use on properly prepared metal surfaces, including industrial machinery, components, lockers, tools, and steel structures. Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease, rust, and old paint before application. It is recommended to use a suitable primer for optimal adhesion and corrosion resistance on bare metal.
Care:
Clean application tools immediately after use with an appropriate solvent. For the coated surface, routine cleaning can be done with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could degrade the coating. The durable nature of the polyurethane ensures minimal maintenance under normal conditions.
