USE

Suitable for all solid, absorbent interior plasters (clay, lime, gypsum and cement), wallpaper, plasterboard and concrete. Also suitable for use on matte, absorbent synthetic resin emulsion paints (always test on a small area first). For wet rooms, we recommend Tockay lime paints.

 

TOOLS

Facade brushes or ceiling brushes with natural bristles as well as good quality rollers (medium length bristles). Can also be applied with an Airless spray gun (minimum air pressure: 200 bar)

 

SURFACE PREPARATION

Apply a coat of casein primer on absorbent surfaces such as plaster, concrete or gypsum board. Let dry completely.

 

PAINT MIXING

Pour the powder into the indicated amount of clean, cold water, stir with a powerful drill equipped with a mixer until smooth. Let stand at least 30 minutes, stir again before using.

 

QUANTITY OF WATER

1 litre -1.10 litres of water per kg of powder.

 

DILUTION

The product should be diluted with sufficient water to obtain the most suitable consistency for the surface; increase the amount of water if necessary.

 

APPLICATION

Apply the paint at a minimum temperature of 8°C. Stir the paint mixture occasionally during application.

Two coats are usually required to achieve full opacity. Do not cover dark, high contrast surfaces with only one coat of paint; thicker coats can damage the surface! Allow previous coats to dry completely before applying a new one. Wet paint remains translucent during application but becomes completely opaque when dry.

Paint should be applied on the same day as the mix is prepared. Never use rotten or smelly paint, as this can leave a lingering odor on the surface, even after it has dried.

With a brush: Apply the paint evenly with a brush, criss-crossing the movements.

With a roller: Apply the paint with a brush evenly and generously, using criss-cross strokes.  Then roll in one direction only, without applying additional paint.

 

TINT

Clay paint can be tinted with up to 10% Tockay pigments (max. 100g of pigment per 1 kg of paint powder):

– Form a paste by mixing the pigments with a little water, then mix with the paint already prepared.

To tint, see our Tockay color chart.

 

RENOVATION

The clay paint can be covered with clay paint, but also with lime paint or distemper.

A prior coat of casein primer facilitates the application of the paint.

 

DRYING

Recoatable after approximately 8 hours. Dries after approximately 24 hours at a temperature of 20°C and a humidity level of 65%. Fully dry and durable after 28 days. Drying time increases with high humidity and/or low temperature. Sufficient temperate ventilation is essential during drying.

 

CLEANING OF TOOLS

Clean with water immediately after use.

 

Technical Data

 

It should be noted that the yield may vary depending on the substrate, the application method and the quality of the surface. Determine exact consumption by testing.

Before using this product, consult its Technical Data Sheet.
