Characteristics

Antiqua is a water-based natural and mineral paint. It has a velvety matt aspect for interior. It is formulated according to old traditions, using natural raw materials : a very fine 24 months fat lime, lactic casein, linseed oil, gasoline of citrus fruits, additives and amorphous mineral loads. Great white. Very easy application. Very good covering capacity and opacity. Very water vapor resistant : fat lime supports allow breathing and painting has hygienic and bactericidal effect.

This painting was formulated so as to correspond to the criteria of analysis ECOLABEL n° 2 and 3 for the determination of the total volatile organic solvent contents and to the criteria of analysis ECOLABEL n°3 and 4 for the determination of the dangerous substances (European directive of September 3, 2002 n° 2002/739/CE).

 

 

 

Preparing Supports

Supports and their preparation will be in conformity with the code of practice and the DTU in force (clean, dry, nonfriable and deprived of salts, moisture and moulds). Supports must be homogeneous in absorption. Supports that are not prepared (plaster board, gypsum block, asbestos cement, siporex, wood, old paintings, stoppings, bleedings and other supports similar) will have to be finished or raked and/or to be fixed with a water-based matt impression.

It is recommended to use on Sous Couche pour Chaux or Sous Couche pour Chaux Extra for an easier application and a better adhesion,

 

 

 

Instructions

Antiqua natural mineral paint can be colored with all compatible mineral pigments. Soften pigments in water and filter the coloring paste that is obtained with a fine sieve. For a better dispersion of  pigments, we recommend the use of Pentasol wetting agent.

Mix well before application.

It is implemented with brush in two layers diluted according to the porosity of the support with approximately 20% of water.

It is dry and recoverable after approximately 24h.

It is possible to apply Velatura or Satura glaze on Antiqua natural mineral paint  once it is dry to obtain an older chromatic effect.

Avoid applying Antiqua natural mineral paint  to hot and/or wet supports.

Consumption: approximately 0,1 lt/m2 per layer - Weight unit: 1,2 kg/lt

 

Carbonation: color variations or saltwork efflorescence can appear following rainwater streaming or residual moisture. Once the application is over and Antiqua natural mineral paint is dry (the coating must have lost all its water), the evening or the following day, it is advised to completely sprinkle the support with a spray or a low pressure jet of fresh water from the bottom to the top (avoiding run-outs). The purpose of this is to accelerate the carbonation of the work. It is recommended to repeat this operation several times by respecting a time of drying between each humidification. This operation can be carried out also inside. For a better protection with rainwater, following the carbonation, it is advised to employ our water repellent (Hydrorep, Water Hydrorep or Hydromat).
