BIORA 3 Primer and ceiling paint
A water-borne acrylate dispersion paint for dry interior spaces.
The paint is easy to apply and produces a full-matt, even film.
BIORA 3 ceiling paint is safe to use since it is fully free of solvent and thus only water evaporates from the paint film.
BIORA 3 can be applied onto concrete, plaster, stopper, brick and building board surfaces.
The product has been classified to 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.

|---|---|
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. Remove all of the old paint from the surfaces which have been painted with glue paint or lime wash. Spray filler ceilings, which are not waterproof, are recommended to be primed with solvent borne primer e.g. FUTURA 3 Adhesion primer. 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 | To prevent the knots bleeding on wood the surfaces are primed with FUTURA 3 Adhesion primer. Steel surfaces are primed with FERREX AQUA Anticorrosive paint. |
Application | Before use stir the paint thoroughly. The paint is thinned with water when needed. Apply once or twice by brush, roller or spray. Suitable nozzle for airless spray is 0.017 - 0.021". |
Application conditions | The surface to be painted has to be dry. During the application and drying period the temperature of the ambient air, the surface and the paint shall be above +5 °C and the relative air humidity below 80 %. Good ventilation during the application and drying period quickens the drying process. |
Maintenance instructions | The final forming of the paint film takes abt. 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. Cleaning by moist wiping or with detergents damages the painted surface. Dry cleaning methods, such as careful wiping, brushing, vacuum cleaning etc., must be used for dirty surface. |
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION | Must be stored tightly closed and kept cool. MUST NOT FREEZE. |
