Frequently Asked Questions
Natural Paints are not suitable for interior wet areas and are best for low-traffic rooms. In heavy traffic areas and areas that may be exposed to occasional splashing, you can use Tintural's Aqua Varnish as a light protective finish coat.
No, limewash paints and natural coatings are sensitive to extreme cold and heat. The ideal temperature for use is between 7 and 27° C. Do not apply lime paint when its raining and make sure the weather forecast does not call for rain in the 48 hours following application.
Wait a minimum of 6-8 hours between coats. Respect stipulated drying times. It is imperative to have a fully dry surface before applying the next coat.
Tintural paints and coatings are between 95% and 100% natural, and have low to no VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds).
