Earthborn EcoPro Silicate Masonry Paint is a durable and weatherproof masonry paint. Being highly breathable and weather resistant, it's a great alternative to traditional lime-based and conventional coatings.
It's great for interior and exterior bare porous mineral surfaces, such as stone, masonry, concrete, pebbledash and plaster and can also be applied to sound silicate-based painted surfaces.
Please note: Earthborn Silicate Masonry Paint can be applied over conventional masonry paints with the use of Earthborn Bonding Primer. Some clay surfaces may require further, special treatment.
For Silicate Masonry Paint to work effectively it must be used with either Earthborn's Silicate Primer or Bonding Primer.
Surfaces to be painted must be clean, dry, absorbent and free from dust, dirt, grease or any other surface contaminants.
- Remove all loose and flaky material
- Fill any gaps and holes with a suitable filler
- All coats of water-soluble distempers and lime paints must be removed or washed back to a sound surface
- All other surfaces should be washed down thoroughly
- Mask all surrounding glass, metal and ceramic before use
For Silicate Masonry Paint to work effectively it must be used with either Earthborn Silicate Primer or Bonding Primer. Please see below for which primer would suit your project best:
- Use Earthborn Silicate Primer for bare porous unpainted masonry substrates such as lime plaster, stone, pebbledash & concrete.
- Use Earthborn Bonding Primer for use over previously painted, sound masonry substrates.
Always try a test area of the colour to assess compatibility and suitability where possible. Always stir the tins of primer and paint thoroughly and always follow the instructions on the tin.
Earthborn Silicate Masonry Paint must be used in conjunction with a primer, as described above.
For Earthborn Silicate Primer:
- Apply one full coat of Silicate Primer and allow to dry
- Apply a mix of 20% Silicate Primer with 80% Silicate Masonry Paint and allow it to dry
- Apply a full coat of Earthborn Silicate Masonry Paint and allow it to dry
For Earthborn Bonding Primer:
- Apply one coat of Bonding primer and allow to dry
- Apply 2 full coats of Silicate Masonry Paint, allowing 6-12 hours between coats
