FAQs

What types of surfaces can Signcryl be applied to?

Signcryl is a versatile paint formulated for excellent adhesion on various substrates, making it suitable for numerous signage projects. It performs exceptionally well on acrylic and polycarbonate sheeting, providing vibrant, long-lasting results for signs and displays. For metal surfaces, including Colorbond, priming is typically necessary to ensure strong adhesion. Signcryl also adheres well to properly prepared wooden surfaces, making it suitable for interior signage projects.

What are the recommended application methods for Signcryl?

Viponds’ Signcryl, an acrylic lacquer designed for the sign industry, offers flexible application methods to accommodate diverse project needs. It can be applied using conventional spray equipment or HVLP (High Volume Low Pressure) systems, ensuring a smooth, high-gloss finish.

For optimal results, it's important to maintain a spray pressure of approximately 275-330 kPa (40-48 psi) and use a nozzle size of 1.4-1.8mm. Preparing the surface by ensuring it is clean, dry and free of contaminants is crucial for achieving excellent adhesion and a flawless appearance. Priming is not required when working with materials like acrylic or polycarbonate sheeting.

Can Signcryl be used for both interior and exterior applications?

Yes, Signcryl is well-suited for both interior and exterior applications, providing a versatile solution for the signage industry. This thermoplastic acrylic lacquer has been specifically formulated to offer exceptional durability and resistance to weathering.

Its excellent adhesion properties ensure that it can be applied to a variety of surfaces, including acrylic, polycarbonate and metals such as Colorbond. For exterior use, it's recommended to ensure proper surface preparation and consider additional protective measures if extreme conditions are anticipated. Signcryl's robust formulation helps retain colour and gloss over time, even when exposed to harsh elements.

For a similar level of versatility in interior applications, consider exploring Viponds’ TautFlex, a flexible, water-based polyurethane coating ideal for materials such as vinyl and leather.

How does Signcryl compare to other acrylic lacquers on the market?

Signcryl distinguishes itself from other lacquers in the market by its exceptional opacity and use of light-fast pigments, making it highly suitable for exterior applications. It can be applied to a diverse range of substrates, including brick, metal, cement render, masonry, plasterboard and timber. This makes it ideal for both residential and commercial exterior projects.
