One set is sufficient to cover approximately 4m² of a wall's surface.

One kit consists of a bucket of Concrete Effect Paint, along with the appropriate amounts of Varnish and Contact Primer needed to paint the specified area

The substrate should be clean, dry, degreased and stable. Remove paint and plaster residues and other layers that are not bonded to the substrate, and patch any gaps.

Protect unpainted surfaces with drop cloth.

First step: PRIMER

Apply at least one layer of priming agent "Kontakt" Primer using a paint roller. It contains quartz sand, thanks to which the obtained coat is rough, which significantly increases the Concrete paint adherence. Leave the prepared surface to dry for about 12 hours.

CAUTION! The Concrete Effect Paint does not tolerate gypsum. For gypsum plaster or any surface containing gypsum, e.g., repaired with gypsum putty, it is necessary to apply two coats of "Kontakt" Primer to isolate the surface.

Second step: CONCRETE EFFECT PAINT

Mix the product thoroughly with a mechanical mixer before use.

Apply Concrete paint with a paint roller in stages, working on an area of max 1 m² at a time. After painting each section, smooth the surface with a plastic trowel, using circular movements. Repeat this process until the entire surface is covered and leave the wall to dry for about 24 hours.

After this time, working again on an area of about 1m², apply a second coat of paint, spreading it with a roller and wiping wet with a plastic trowel. If you want to achieve a characteristic pitting effect, leave small holes in some places. If you want the surface to be smooth, apply the paint evenly. You can also use a decorative stencil and create a pattern at this stage. Concrete paint allows for various decorative effects, depending on the application method and the painter's imagination.

After about 15-20 minutes, check if the paint is dry enough not to stick to the tools. Take a Venetian trowel and, applying it flat, smooth the entire decorated surface with circular movements.

When finished, let the wall dry for about 24 hours.

Third step: VARNISH

Once the surface is dry, clean it with a brush to remove any loose paint residue. Then, apply Primacol Decorative varnish with a brush or a roller. When applying the varnish, be very careful not to leave stains that will negatively affect the final visual effect.

Leave the wall to dry for at least 24 hours.
