Intonachino Arenino MGN

Pigmented lime plaster

Traditional, weatherproof lime finish in 24+ colours

Suitable for internal or external use. Stable and weatherproof colours, ageing like historical plasters, with enhanced decorative qualities and patina.

This unique material gives you the freedom of textures from the traditional looking gritty lime exteriors to glassy or stone looks

Highlights

NATURALLY BREATHABLE: this is a natural lime finish with pores evenly distributed throughout, maintaining maximum breathability due to an optimal vapour exchange between the masonry and the environment.

 

STABLE COLOURING:  obtained by mixing coloured aggregates and natural earths colourings, materials that are not affected by atmospheric agents or UV radiation. The ageing process is identical to that of historical plasters: over time it acquires a softness or patina that enhances its decorative qualities, but the colouring is stable that won’t change or fade in time.

 

BLENDING INTO HISTORIC ENVIRONMENTS: identical with old plasters used in many conservation areas. It is a modern product with the same components as ancient plasters.

 

INVITES CREATIVITY: can be applied and finished with many techniques, from using a simple trowel to make it look like natural stone, or smooth and shiny finishes.

Machine Application

Make sure that the base plaster is sufficiently dampened (depending on weather conditions) to ensure a gradual set.

 

Pour the contents of the package into the plastering machine, adding  drinking water only.

 

It is advisable to carry out some tests to adjust the equipment and consistency  to the type of surface and ambient conditions.

 

 

 

For manual or machine application. Mix it for about 3-5 minutes until a homogeneous, creamy paste is obtained.

 

Apply the product typically in 2  coats of about 1-2 mm each, and level them with a stainless steel trowel until the trowel marks disappear.

 

After about 30 minutes it can be polished using a small flexi trowel, by applying pressure to the surface.
