Paint Type: Water-based acrylic with pearlescent pigments.
Finishing: Pearlescent Velvet Texture.
Drying Time: Touch Dry in 30 minutes; Hard Dry in 2 hours.
Recoating Interval: Minimum 2 – 4 hours (for base coats).
Theoretical Coverage: 4 – 6 m² per litre (actual coverage varies by application style).
Volume Solids: Approximately 35%.
Shelf Life: Up to 36 months in unopened, original containers.
Base Coat: Apply two coats of the designated Nippon Momento Primer and allow it to dry completely for at least 4 hours.
Texture Application: Apply the Velvet Pearl finish using a specialized Momento spatula or trowel in a random "criss-cross" or "S-shape" motion to create the signature velvet texture.
Refining: For an intensified effect and greater depth of color, a second thin layer can be applied once the first coat is touch-dry.
Sealer (1 Coat): Nippon Interior Wall Sealer (for new or highly porous masonry).
Base Coat (2 Coats): Nippon Momento Primer (in the specific color matching the Velvet Pearl series).
Finish Coat (1-2 Coats): Momento® Velvet Pearl.
Structural Check: Ensure the wall is structurally sound and free from cracks; repair any defects with a suitable interior filler.
Surface Purity: The substrate must be clean, dry, and free from dust, oil, grease, or old peeling paint before starting the priming process.
Moisture & Alkalinity: Verify that the wall’s moisture content is below 16% and the alkalinity level is below pH 9 to prevent pigment discoloration.
Sanding: Lightly sand the base coat to remove any ridges, ensuring the Velvet Pearl finish lays flat and maintains its soft, fabric-like appearance.
Environment: Work in a dust-free, well-ventilated indoor area to prevent airborne particles from contaminating the shimmering pearl finish during the drying process.
