FAQs

What is a Self Adhesive Prep Coat paint, and what is its purpose?

Viponds Self Adhesive Prep Coat is a specially formulated, low-VOC, water-based top coat designed to ensure maximum adhesion of self-adhesive films. It creates a uniform substrate, dries quickly with minimal odour and significantly reduces issues like bubbling, peeling and premature wear. This results in a professional and long-lasting finish, making it essential for applications where the visual integrity of graphics and signage is paramount.

What surfaces can the Self Adhesive Prep Coat be applied to?

This prep coat paint boasts exceptional versatility, adhering effectively to surfaces like glass, along with aluminium, stainless steel and non-ferrous metals when primed appropriately. This adaptability makes it ideal for a wide range of applications, from sleek commercial shop displays to elaborate mural projects. By providing a reliable foundation, the coat ensures that self-adhesive materials bond seamlessly and deliver long-lasting performance.

For projects that require a flexible, durable coating, TautFlex is the recommended choice. This water-based polyurethane is perfect for flexible and hard vinyl surfaces and is used in industries ranging from automotive to footwear.

What is the drying time for Self Adhesive Prep Coat?

The Viponds Self Adhesive Prep Coat paint dries quickly under optimal conditions. It becomes touch dry in 30 minutes when the temperature is between 15°C and 25°C and humidity is below 50%. Recoating can be done after 2 hours.

For environments outside these conditions, such as higher humidity or temperatures above 30°C, drying times may need to be adjusted. The paint should cure for at least 24 hours before applying self-adhesive prints or vinyl to ensure the surface and the prints are prepared adequately for optimal adhesion.

How does Viponds Self Adhesive Prep Coat compare to other prep coat products on the market?

Viponds Self Adhesive Prep Coat stands out in the market for its exceptional adhesion and versatility. Unlike many other prep products, Viponds' formulation is explicitly tailored to enhance the bond between surfaces and self-adhesive films.

This product is particularly noted for its ability to perform reliably across various surfaces, including those typically challenging for adhesives. The Australian-made quality and focused innovation in its development make it a preferred choice among professionals in the signage and design industries.
