Preparation of the substrate

The substrate has to be clean of oil, grease and dust.  Former coats of paint have to be removed.  Existing layers of paint, if in good condition, have to be cleaned with an ammoniac solution (2 to 5%) in water. 

Remove pulverized finishes, or clean them with a specially adapted product, if in good condition.

Damaged natural rock can be repaired with a mineral mortar.  Joints, damaged masonry or loose plasters have to be repaired with UNILIT natural hydraulic lime mortars. 

 

Practical application

Keim Biosil can be applied with a brush, paint roller or mechanically with a spray gun.  If sprayed, please mention on your order form.

Generally, 12 hours waiting time have to be considered between before applying the next paint layer (dependent on the substrate and the weather conditions).
