 TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

5400 WALL SEALER Updated Feb’20

5400 Wall Sealer is a Styrene acrylic water-based wall sealer. It is specially formulated for interior
and exterior walls to protect the finishing coats against the effects of mild alkalinity and moisture
from the substrate.

Paint Type Product Finishing Recommended Substrate Pack Size

Type
Water based Interior & Matt Masonry, brick, plastering 5 Litres, 18 Litres
Exterior substrate and fibre board

Composition
Pigment : Titanium Dioxide and Mineral Extender
Binder : Styrene Acrylic Emulsion
Thinner : Water

Technical Data
Drying Time : Touch Dry : 15 minutes (Dependent on temperature and humidity)
: Hard Dry : 1 hour (Dependent on temperature and humidity)
Recoating Time : 2 hours minimum (Dependent on temperature and humidity)
Dry Film Thickness : Around 30 m per coat
No. of Coats : 1 coat
Theoretical Coverage : 10 – 12 m2 per litre per coat (Actual coverage is dependent on substrate condition, application
method, application condition and finishing appearance)
Volume Solid : ~ 34 %
Shelf Life : Up to 36 months in tight sealed container

Application Method
Brush / Roller : Dilute the paint with not more than 5% of water. Preferable not dilute for best performance.

Recommended Coating System

Sealer / Primer : 5400 Wall Sealer : 1 Coat
Top Coat : Nippon Interior Products / Nippon Exterior Products : 2 Coats

Surface Preparation
Remove all loose, defective paint or powdery residues, loose chalk, dust and foreign matter. Repair cracks, uneven
surfaces with suitable fillers. Smoothen the filler areas with sand paper. Surfaces to be painted must be cleaned
thoroughly and dry, it must be free from dirt, grease and other foreign matters. Allow all surfaces to dry completely prior
to painting. Avoid painting when the moisture content and alkalinity of the walls are still high. (Recommended painting
specification requires the moisture content of the walls to be below 16% measured by protimeter and alkalinity of the
