    EWI-005 Silicone Paint

    Please note: We do not accept returns on tinted products because our tinted products are made-to-order. Products that have not been tinted can be returned as per our normal T&Cs. We recommend buying one of our samples before purchasing to ensure you are 100% happy with your chosen colour. Colours from different batches may vary slightly. To avoid an uneven finish, mix tubs before application.

     

    EWI-005 Silicone Paint is a high-performance masonry paint. This product is ideal for painting over an existing render as a way to refresh the facade and create a finish that looks brand new. It is also great for painting over our Mineral Render to seal the render in.

    We suggest you apply the Silicone Paint 3-7 days after the Mineral Render has been applied to the substrate. However, this depends on weather conditions. This will ensure that a strong physical and chemical bond forms between the Mineral Render and the masonry paint.

    Preparation

    Before application, the surface of the substrate must be clean and dry. You should be sure to adequately protect any surfaces that you don’t intend to paint. Check that the paint is the requested colour. Mix Silicone Paint thoroughly within its container to ensure an even distribution of colour pigments. If using more than one tin of paint for the same surface, you should ensure that you match the batch numbers.

    Application

    Apply the masonry paint using brushes, rollers or spray equipment. Best practice when using a silicone-based paint is to apply the paint to the substrate in a continuous manner one wall/surface at a time. This will ensure that there are no visible drying lines where sections of paint meet. When used as a topcoat to our Mineral Render system, the masonry paint should be applied 3-7 days after rendering and at the latest 21 days after rendering, depending on weather conditions. When painting over the top of multi-layer render coats, the last layer must be 7 days old.

    Paints with intense colours (reflection coefficient Y < 20%) should not be used for large facades; the resulting temperature and UV radiation in these conditions may reduce the durability of paint coats and may cause colour fading.

    Frequently asked questions

    Silicone Paint is different from standard paint as it contains silicone resins. Silicone Paint is hydrophobic, repelling water, keeping walls free from water damage and highly breathable, allowing moisture trapped behind to escape freely.

    Silicone Paint can be used both internally and externally.

    EWI Store offers 50 standard colours to choose from; however, our smart tinting machines can tint paint to thousands of colours.

    Depending on the weather conditions, Silicone Paint should be applied 3 to 7 days after the Mineral Render has been applied to the substrate.

    You can use Silicone Paint to paint over Silicone Render. We recommend using Silicone Paint over standard masonry paint as it is highly breathable and hydrophobic. Before painting over the render, ensure that the walls are clean of dirt and apply tape to any areas that need protection from the paint.
