Intended use
ArchiMetal is ideal for:
coatings, bathrooms, furniture and furnishing accessories -
for exteriors and interiors -
environments for civil and commercial use -
adheres to almost all surfaces such as glass, paper, wood -

Knowledge of the products
even if our application cycle does not require the use of a specific primer, it is also true that in front of types of substrates you need to have the best knowledge to be able to create a solid and effective structure that lasts over time. The Primer is the fundamental basis of the entire application process.
Product
A new technology created to make ArchiMetal the first highly flexible and pressure-resistant single-component water-based nano coating on the market, creates a solid mantle that lasts over time. The chemical composition created and developed in our laboratories, composed purely of non-metallic alloys, recycled nano resins and fluid zirconium, all this represents a technological leap never achieved before, available in five different versions, steel, gold, bronze, copper and zinc . Archimetal can be applied for the artist or craft decoration of interior floors (with due protection), exterior and interior cladding, bathrooms and shower enclosures (without protection), ceilings, furniture and furnishing accessories (with or without protection).
 Primer
ArchiMetal can be applied on various substrates without the use of primers, for example substrates treated with well-dry and anchored acrylic water-based paints, substrates previously treated with Cemento 3D, PanareaStone, or MarmUra (in this case the substrates will only be used for the purpose of creating new effects and new textures), in the case of old walls painted with old paint and without holes or cracks, only one coat of Primer NK must be applied. (ask for info to our technical support).​
Application
Apply ArchiMetal in one or two layers according to the desired texture using a stainless steel trowel, a brush, a sponge or spray, drying times vary according to the thickness applied and on average the drying in depth takes place between 6/12 hours.
Polishing
After drying, proceed with polishing the treated surface using polishing discs in silicon carbide of grain 1000 and 3000 using an electric polisher connected to a vacuum cleaner, after polishing it is advisable to pass a soft cloth to eliminate any traces of metal dust, it is possible apply medium-thick or multi-colored ArchiMetal.
Transparent finish
ProteKto EcoSilan is an ecological colorless finish composed of a chain of silicon atoms and nano particles and a blend of silanes and siloxanes in aqueous emulsion, it penetrates deep into the capillaries of the support making it hydrophobic and at the same time breathable, non-film-forming with permanent action , resistant to UV rays, does not yellow in any environmental and aging conditions, it leaves the surfaces treated in a natural way.

Rules of use and recommendations
ProteKto EcoSilan is ready for use and must be applied using one of the following tools; brush, mohair roller, manual or airless spray.

Application
The surfaces in ArchiMetal must be dry, apply a single layer of ProteKto EcoSilan and wait about 15/20 minutes, eliminate traces of excess product using absorbent paper, immediately after wiping a soft cotton cloth over the entire surface and let it dry for at least 3/4 days, the maximum resistance to water repellency is obtained after about 7/10 days.
In this video we colored ArchiMetal Gold with green dye, the result was to create a gold metal with green reflections.​
Important notes
ArchiMetal is made up of two components, COMP. Paste-based and COMP. B base powder. Pour the powder in small doses and using an electric mixer with a special whisk until you get a homogeneous paste without lumps, after mixing the product is ready for application. After use, the product can be stored for about a year, if drinking water has been added it is recommended to use the product. We recommend mixing only the quantity necessary for the surface to be treated (in the case of small jobs), if you decide to mix both bases and store the product, it should be noted that after some time, deposits may form inside the container. surface, the product can be used again but care must be taken to eliminate the encrusted parts and mix again before the next use (these data are provided on the basis of studies carried out in our laboratories, it is the installer's responsibility to read the technical data sheet before 'use).
