Preparation

Old surface.

Remove all loose old and peeling paint and clean. Then apply a stabilizing primer depending on the type of surface. When the primer is completely dry, apply a coat of PRIMUS NATURALE diluted up to a maximum of 10% with water. After 4-6 hours at 20°C proceed with the application of ISTINTO.

New surface.

Clean (and if necessary, fill in) the surface you want to paint. Once dry, sand the surface and apply a coat of suitable primer. When the primer is completely dry, apply a coat of PRIMUS NATURALE diluted up to a maximum of 10% with water. After 4-6 hours at 20°C proceed with the application of ISTINTO.

Note: When the substrate is plasterboard, the surface must be completely smoothed, not just the joints and screws. It must then be primed with a suitable plasterboard filler and then the above preparation procedure must be followed.

 

Application

  • The product is ready to use, do not dilute.
  • Application tools: with the stainless steel spatula Segui il tuo Istinto.
  • Layers: one (1) layer
  • First Layer: apply the shades of the material you have chosen to the surface with large movements using the INOX-stainless steel spatula Segui il tuo Istinto. Create the base of the effect according to the catalog or your own imagination. After 30 minutes, spray with water and press well with the stainless steel spatula Segui il tuo Istinto to get a very smooth surface like marble. After 1.5-2 hours, make a second press with the same spatula. Let the surface dry.
  • 12-24 hours later, apply two layers of Vetro satinato varnish diluted 1:4 with water to the entire surface. Let it dry for 2-3 hours.
  • Make a mixture of 1 part Vetro Opaco with 8 parts Water. Pour it into small containers depending on the shades of the marble veins you have chosen to create.
  • Using the special marble painting brushes Giorgio Graesan & friends, start creating the marble.
