What is lime paint
An architectural topcoat, suitable for interior and exterior applications, that delivers an even matte finish. Composed of three all-natural ingredients: liquid potassium silicate (the binder), mineral pigments, water (the solvent). Contains no chemical solvents or artificial ingredients. A two-step process that provides excellent coverage and a uniform finish. Bonds to the surface through a natural chemical process resulting in a durable, breathable, lightfast coating. May be applied directly to any mineral substrate that is untreated, unsealed, unpainted. May be applied to drywall and other non-mineral substrates providing they have been prepared with bonding primer.
