Using this specific product

Sto StoColor Dryonic is listed here as the Moisture-managing facade coating version for facade coating and wall coating. For painting, the useful question is not simply whether the surface looks finished—it is whether the exact next-action milestone shown above has been reached.

  • For facade coating and wall coating, pay particular attention to surface preparation, coat thickness and ventilation.
  • At 70°F and 50% humidity; the surface must be 5°F above the dew point.

How to check readiness

Test an inconspicuous area for firmness and blocking before normal use. The sheet says the coating dries within 24 hours.
