Caparol Capatox Biocide Solution - 5 Litres
Overview
Caparol Capatox is an aqueous microbiocide solution for the pretreatment and disinfection of surfaces affected by algae, moss, mould and fungus.
Designed for use on both internal and external surfaces, Capatox is applied after the affected area has been thoroughly cleaned and before subsequent coating. It provides a supportive treatment to help prepare contaminated surfaces for further decorating or protective coatings.
Capatox is supplied ready to use and must be applied undiluted by brush. Depending on the roughness and absorbency of the substrate, the approximate coverage is 50-150 ml/m².
