Tikkurila Makor-Tix – primer and topcoat for metal roofs
AMBIT offers Tikkurila Makor-Tix, a matt acrylic primer and topcoat in one, combining anti-corrosion priming with an enamel finish. The manufacturer specifies it for direct application to roof coverings, gutters and other elements made from steel, galvanized steel, zinc, cast iron, aluminium and copper, including surfaces with small areas of corrosion, in environments with corrosivity categories C1–C3.
The thixotropic formula makes application easier by brush, roller or airless spray, while the coating dries quickly and provides good coverage. Galvanized sheet metal is best painted after weathering, and the substrate must first be cleaned and degreased. The manufacturer recommends 2–3 coats and, where the roof needs to be walked on during the work, a 24-hour interval between coats.
This product suits roofers, refurbishment contractors and homeowners renovating a metal roof without a separate primer. Ask us about available colours and pack sizes.
