This British Standard specifies requirements for a Portland cement-based paint powder that, when mixed with water, provides decorative and protective coatings for interior and exterior use on porous surfaces of masonry, concrete, cement renderings, bricks, building blocks and asbestos-cement. Recommendations for the use of powder cement paints are given in Appendix C.

This standard is not suitable for products to be applied to gypsum or any other surface with an appreciable water-soluble sulphate content.

CAUTION. In order to test products claiming compliance with this standard, the use of asbestos-cement test panels is stipulated (see the foreword). Attention is drawn to the hazards associated with asbestos-containing materials and the precautions that should be taken (see Appendix A).
