Coverage:

  • 1L per 8sqm.

Number of coats:

  • 2+ coats.

Dilution:

  • Can vary highly, if you wish to achieve a 2-tone finish, we recommend diluting the first coat only around 10% and doing a much higher dilution on the second coat, of around 40%.
  • For a standard application we recommend diluting the first coat around 30% and the second coat around 15%.
  • Please bear in mind, the level of dilution will vary depending on the effect you would like to achieve. The dilution rates can even range from 30-80%, per coat. Experimenting is key!

Tools:

  • Large rectangular block brush for standard application.
  • For colour washes, we recommend taking a look at the various decorative sponges we have available.

  • Between +5C and +35C for up to 2 years.

Disclaimers

  • Due to the high lime content in this paint, it is essential to stir it before applying, followed by stirring it subsequently every 10 mins or so.

  • Please note that lime paints dry much lighter than they appear when wet. If you notice that your chosen colour appears darker, this likely explains why.

  • Atomo - Surface Stabilizer For Porous Substrates

Are your walls freshly plastered?

If you are going to apply on a surface with high absorption such as a freshly plastered wall, the paint may not give you the desired coverage. Atomo will seal the surface, improving coverage and creating a stronger bond.

1L of Atomo can cover up to 30sqm. Please refer to your paint calculations for the coverage required.

  • Epic Fondo - Smooth Universal Primer For Porous Interior Surfaces

Do you need a primer?

Lime paints typically do not need a primer before application, as they have naturally good bonding. In some occasions however, a primer can be advantageous, especially if the background colour is deep or bright. This will help to avoid having to do multiple coats of paint just to hide the background colour.

Our Epic fondo Primer can cover around 11sqm per litre.
