Substrate and preparation
Plaster substrates that have not yet been painted, as well as gypsum plaster and plasterboard walls, should first be coated with LEINOS Silicate Primer 621 pre-treated. To equalise different absorbencies, e.g. filling and touch-up areas, pre-treatment with LEINOS Silicate Primer 621 also makes sense. If in doubt, apply a test coat. Please note that smooth substrates will become somewhat grainy due to this primer.
Processing
Silicate Clay Paint is easy to apply with a brush or roller after careful stirring. If necessary, dilute the first coat with max. 10 % water. The final coat is painted/rolled on undiluted.
Sprayability:
Non-binding guide values: Airless: Nozzles 0.38-0.58 mm, spray angle approx. 40°-50°, filter approx. 100-50 meshes.
Drying time
At 20 °C and 50 % relative humidity: Dust-dry after approx. 3 hours in a normal climate and can be painted over with Silicate Clay Paint after approx. 4 hours. Silicate Clay Paint is fully cured after 24 hours and can be glazed with Silicate Primer 621 (diluted 1:3 to 1:5 with water) and the alkali-resistant Pigment Concentrates for colouring. Ensure good ventilation!
Consumption
1 litre is sufficient for 5-8 m² per coat, depending on the absorbency of the substrate. The consumption is approx. 150 ml/m².
