GekkkoSOL Paint

Clear


GekkkoSOL Paint is a very well covering, one-component, white silicate-based wall paint made exclusively from pure mineral fillers, pigments and binders. Particularly recommended for the renovation of firmly seated old plastic-based paints, especially dispersion paints.

SKU: 142.0 - 142.2 Category: Tag:

GekkkoSOL Paint is based on a mixture of waterglasses. The special composition and combination of these water-glasses make for an enormously broad spectrum of application, particularly with regards to a purely mineral-based paint.
The binding agent in GekkkoSOL is silicon dioxide (quartz) diluted in water. It has a specific surface of 500m² per gram. This extremely large surface results in enormously high adhesion forces effective on almost every surface. This binder has already been in use for centuries in the clarification of wine and grape juice.
GekkkoSOL was named after the gecko which, with the millions of fine, little hairs on its feet, is able to adhere to the smoothest of surfaces even when upside down.

GekkkoSOL Paint is suitable for interior use as new and renovation coatings on many different surfaces:
– Very firmly fixed old synthetic-based coatings, especially emulsion paints. Use on latex paints only after trial coating with good results!
– Gypsum-, lime based gypsum-, lime based cement- and lime plasters.
– Plasterboards and drywalls (exception: Rigidur H).
– Old lacquers
– Concrete
On new lime-based plasters, renders and paints, wait at least 4 weeks before repainting with GekkkoSOL Paint.
