BIORA CLEAN Antimicrobial interior paint
Matt, water-borne, solvent-free and wash resistant acrylate paint which improves the hygiene level in rooms by reducing the amount of microbes in paint surface. The active ingredient is silver. The antimicrobial effect remains throughout the life of the paint film.
The antimicrobial efficiency has been tested according to standard ISO 22196.
Group M1 in Emission Classification of building materials
The product has been granted the right to use the allergy label of the Finnish Allergy and Asthma Federation.
For indoor use in spaces where wall and ceiling surfaces must be easy to clean and resistant to abrasion. Recommended objects, where antimicrobial properties of the paint film improve the functionality of the spaces, are all household dry and humid indoor spaces: e.g. lavatories, halls, kitchens, utility rooms and bedrooms, as well as public spaces and offices, etc. with light wear strain.
BIORA CLEAN can be applied to primed concrete, plaster, stopper, brick and building board surfaces according to the instructions. BIORA CLEAN is also suitable for repainting old wall and ceiling surfaces.

| Direction for Use | |
|---|---|
Surface preparation | Clean new surfaces from dust and dirt. Wash previously painted surfaces with RENSA SUPER paint cleaner. Matt down hard or gloss surfaces by sanding and thereafter remove the dust. For smoothing of irregularities in the surface choose a suitable filler from the SILORA series. The dried filler is sanded down and the dust removed. |
Priming | Prime concrete, plaster, stopper, brick and building board surfaces with BIORA 3 Primer. Steel surfaces are primed with FERREX AQUA Anticorrosive paint. |
Application | Before use stir the paint thoroughly. Apply BIORA CLEAN once or twice by roller, spray or brush. Recommended nozzle size for airless spray is 0.017 - 0.021''. |
Conditions | The surface to be painted must be dry. During the application and drying period the temperature of the ambient air, the surface and the paint shall be above +10 °C and the relative air humidity below 80 %. Good ventilation during the application and drying period quickens the drying process. |
Surface maintenance | The final forming of the paint film takes 3 - 4 weeks under normal circumstances and after that the ultimate durability and hardness is reached. Before this the painted surface must be treated with care. The painted surface can be cleaned by wiping with a neutral (pH 6 - 8) detergent. For very dirty surfaces can also alkalescent (pH 8 - 10) detergents be used. Detergent and dirt are removed by wiping and/or rinsing the surface with clean water. Use a cleaning cloth, soft sponge or similar for cleaning. Avoid coarse brushing or heavy abrasion. Follow the dilution and other instructions of the detergent producer when using detergents. |
Storage | Must not freeze. |
