LIMEPAINT

In the production of our Kalk paint we use powder colour pigments. The pigments used are beautiful mineral pigments that do not contain lead nor cadmium. It is important for us that our product does not harm the environment during manufacturing and disposal/use.

Our Kalkpaint can be used directly on most indoor surfaces, provided that the surface is stable and not flaking, is free of dirt, grease, and soluble salts and is absorbing the Kalkpaint well, such as cement, brick, wood, plasterboard as well as surfaces that have already been painted with water based paint or acrylic primer (that is free of Alkyd).
