Punic Wax is a soap based on beeswax with a creamy consistency. The beeswax is molten, cleaned and then bleached over active charcoal and Fuller’s earth using a special method.
In a process developed by KREIDEZEIT the bleached wax is saponified with potash so that it is partly water soluble and easy to apply.
Punic Wax is a shiny wax coating for:
– KREIDEZEIT Stuccolustro, Stucco Fine,Tadelakt, Marmorino, and on Lime Wall Finish -smooth-
– marble imitations (e.g. on Casein Marble Paint)
– Encaustic

As an addition to Casein Marble Paint, Vega Wallpaint or gluebound Distemper
– spackle techniques
– stencil paintings
– polishable coatings

On Marmorino, Stuccolustro, Stucco Fein, Lime wall Finish -smooth-
Apply Punic wax undiluted with the Venetian Trowel (Art. K4227 / 4228) or a Spring Steel Trowel (Art. K 4225) in one to several wafer-thin layers. Apply only to surfaces that have already been soaped. After drying, polish with a trowel.
On Tadelakt
Apply Punic wax undiluted and wafer-thin with a cloth ball and polish immediately with a clean, dry and soft cloth ball. Apply only to surfaces that have already been soaped.
Marble imitations
For example on Casein Marble Paint designed with marble imitations: apply the Punic Wax thinly with a trowel and, after drying, either polish with a trowel or by hand with soft cloths, horsehair brushes or a polishing machine for an even shine. Attention with machine polish: Too high pressure and too high rpm can lead to damage of the surface due to heat development!
The wax coating creates a deep and transparent character that is deceptively similar to real marble.
Polishable Wallpaint
With an addition of 15% Punic Wax to Casein Mar-ble Paint, Vega Wall Paint or Distemper (0.75 kg Punic Wax on 5 kg powder) you get a wall surface of beautiful silky gloss after drying and polishing. Only mix wax into the already mixed paint and after its expanding time!
Drying Times
approx. 5 – 6 hours at 20 °C.
Cleaning the Tools
Immediately after use with warm water, if necessary with a little soap.
