Ultima by Asian Paints Berger is exclusively formulated for the Middle Eastern climate. Ultima comes with 4-in-1 Protection which ensures that your exterior stays beautiful for longer. With its superb technological formulation, Ultima delivers a lasting 12 years performance and withstands the harshest of climatic conditions, ensuring your walls are protected month after month, year after year.
The 4-in-1 Protection breaks down into four things you can actually see and feel on your walls.
It is used as a finish coat for exterior surfaces and is designed for masonry substrates. Pack sizes are 0.9 litre, 3.6 litre and 18 litre, which covers everything from a small touch-up to a full exterior repaint.On new construction, patience pays. New concrete should be left for at least 21 days to cure before coating. The surface to be coated must be clean and free from all loose extraneous materials such as loose paint, dust or loosely adhering concrete.
Colour choice is not a constraint. Shades come from a wide range across CW Spectra and other shade cards. You can browse the full exterior paints range or compare the Silk variant if you want a softer sheen.
Gloss is one of three sheen variants in this range, alongside Matt and Silk. The finish is smooth. What sits behind that finish is where the value is:
● 4-in-1 Protection formulated for Middle Eastern harsh climatic conditions
● Anti-carbonation properties that protect the structure and rebars from corrosion
● Temperature reduction through advanced heat reflecting properties
● Flexibility to mask hairline cracks developed on the wall
● Dirt repellence that keeps the wall cleaner for a long time
● Anti algal and antifungal properties
● Volume solids of 39% plus or minus 2%
The Ultima range offers a performance warranty of 12 years under normal atmospheric conditions.
The recommended system on the product page is straightforward. One coat of Weathercoat Primer followed by two coats of Ultima Weatherproof Exterior Emulsion Gloss. Roller is the recommended method of application. A brush may be used for small areas, inaccessible areas and touch up. Thin with approximately 10% sweet water for ease of application, and do not over dilute.
Conditions on site matter as much as technique. Do not apply when humidity exceeds 85% and condensation is likely. Only apply coating when the surface temperature is 3°C or more above dew point. At a substrate temperature of 35°C the film is touch dry in about half an hour and hard dry in about an hour, with a minimum overcoating interval of three hours.
For estimating quantities, the theoretical spread rate is 9.75 m² per litre at 40 micron dry film thickness per coat.
Much of the upkeep is handled by the paint itself. Dirt repellence means the surface attracts lesser dirt and stays cleaner for a long time, while the dust protection shield helps keep exteriors dust-free. Anti algal and antifungal properties work against microbial growth, and the coating flexes to mask hairline cracks as they develop. When a repaint comes around, preparation decides the result. If fungus or algae is present, treat first with an antimicrobial wash and leave it for 24 hours, then thoroughly rinse and wash or scrape it away. Where grease is present, clean using a mild detergent or solvent and rinse thoroughly. Any sources of water leakage or seepage must be arrested before coating application.
For over-coating over old coatings, high pressure water cleaning should be performed to remove all loose or flaking coatings and ensure the remaining coatings are tightly adherent. If required, a coat of Plastaseal Penetrating Sealer should be applied.
Store unopened stock in cool, dry conditions. Shelf life is up to 24 months from the date of manufacture.
A 12 year performance promise is a long commitment, and it should feel like one. If you want a longer warranty period on the same range, Ultima Protek Gloss carries a 15-year performance warranty.
