TFK-108 WB
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
TRAFFIKOTE TFK-108 WB is an acrylic waterbased tecnology, a lead free, high hiding and also water reducible marking paint.
This product is a conventional dry (non heated application) water based paint intended for marking interior and exterior
curbing and lines on driveways, sidewalks, runways, factory floors, parking lots, playgrounds and other areas where line
markings are required. Can be applied on asphalt and concrete substrates.
FIELDS OF APPLICATION
Parking lots
Warehouse floors
Playgrounds
Sidewalks
Shopping centres
Others area where line markings are required
ADVANTAGES
Waterbased, odorless and environmentally friendly
Fast drying and good adhesion
High visibility
Abrasion resistance
Easy to apply
Glassbead can be added for making reflective markings

INSTRUCTION FOR USE
Surface Preparation
Surface must be clean, dry, sound and free from all contaminants. Remove all loosen material or paint residue through brushing
and scraping using fibre brush or clean the surface using high pressure air. Treat any areas affected by biological organism like
algae, moss or lichen with PROPAN FUNGICIDAL WASH. Repair defect with suitable materials. Substrate must be clean and dry
before apply. If the substrate is porous, apply Tennokote Sealer TNK-1020.
Application Procedure
Function Product and Tools Coating amount Curing Time
Finish : Stir before use. Use a low speed mixer for at least 1 minute until 2 kg /m2/200 mic ± 24 hrs (300C)
Coat the homogeneous. Apply Traffikote TFK-108 WB using airless spray, (without glass beads)
add ±20% of clean water before apply. Protect areas from traffic,
rain, dust or other organism which may wreck the coating.
Area can be used in 3 days.
The required paint dry film thickness is determined by the size of the glass beads being applied to the marking. It is important
that the specified film thickness is achieved in order to maximized the bead retention and wearing properties of marking.
Glass beads must be applied immediately to wet paint to create reflective marking. Glass beads ± 0.50 mm in diameter applied
at wet film thickness of 700 microns (400 microns DFT) is recommended to achieved the highest durability. Use gravity flow
equipment to dispense or glass beads can be hand broadcast at rate of 0.3 – 0.6 kg per kg of paint. Do not mix beads directly
into paint.
Can be applied by roll or brush for non project specification (retail user). Three coat for total thickness 200 mic DFT.
