What are the Properties of Silicone Paint?
Silicone paints give a flat and matte appearance to the surface. Thanks to its structure, it adheres well to all surfaces and provides a high degree of coverage. By not allowing water to pass through, it prevents the wall from getting wet and rotting. It is also breathable. This allows it to expel moisture outwards. Its alkali value is quite high. Therefore, you can use it with peace of mind in places close to the sea, sunny, and humid. With its moisture-reducing property, it is particularly used more intensely in basement floors. It will continue to be a paint type that is always used due to its resistance to all weather conditions and superior coating properties. It is easy to apply and long-lasting.
Application of Silicone Paint
Before applying silicone paint to the surface, the surface should be cleaned thoroughly. If there are holes or gaps on it, they should be filled with putty. Sanding the wall before applying the paint is also one of the methods to achieve better results. Silicone paints are generally applied in 2 coats. In the first coat, the paint is thinned by 10%, and in the second coat, the paint is applied without thinning.
