Mipa silicone remover in liquid format handles broad panel cleaning, while the spray format is useful around edges, fixings, overlaps and small repair zones before sanding or coating.
Guided shopping for metal building panels
Steel cladding and building panels need a clean, stable surface, a corrosion resistant primer on exposed metal, and a durable topcoat that can handle exterior weather and daily building use.
Mipa silicone remover in liquid format handles broad panel cleaning, while the spray format is useful around edges, fixings, overlaps and small repair zones before sanding or coating.
Mipa EP 100-20 gives exposed steel, zinc, aluminium, GRP and mineral surfaces a zinc phosphate epoxy primer layer before the visible finish goes on.
Mipa EP 950-25 is the normal hardener for compatible EP primer work, and Mipa EP Thinner adjusts the epoxy material when the primer needs correct application viscosity.
Mipa PU 250-50 gives cladding and building panels a semi-gloss 2K polyurethane acrylic finish for facades, steel constructions and metal parts.
Mipa PUR Plus Hardener A60 supports brush and roller use with compatible PU 250 work, while Mipa 2K Thinner Normal V 25 is the standard thinner method for solvent based 2K coating adjustment.
Check whether the old coating is firmly bonded, chalking, flaking or exposing bare metal. Loose coating, rust and weak chalky residue must be removed before coating.
Remove dirt, grease, oil and surface contamination with the appropriate Mipa cleaner, then allow the panel to dry before sanding or primer application.
De-rust exposed steel, key glossy areas and clean again. Zinc and aluminium need the preparation method stated for the chosen system before primer or topcoat.
Use Mipa EP 100-20 with the matching EP hardener and thinner where the surface needs an epoxy primer layer for adhesion and corrosion protection.
Apply Mipa PU 250-50 with the correct hardener and thinner choice for the application method, keeping the film even across panel faces, edges and laps.
Firm, clean and keyed old coating can be refinished after compatibility and adhesion checks, with extra attention to chalking, edges and fastener lines.
Exposed steel or damaged galvanized areas need stronger preparation and a compatible primer method before the semi-gloss topcoat is applied.
For broad panel areas, liquid formats and controlled brush, roller or spray application give better coverage planning than small aerosol work.
For cladding that has weathered paint, first make one small adhesion and compatibility test area. A clean test patch helps confirm whether the old coating can carry the new system before a full wall or building panel is coated.
