Kreidezeit Vega wall paint

Product information "Kreidezeit Vega wall paint"

Kreidezeit Chalk Age Wall Paint is a vegan, highly opaque and easy-to- apply wall paint for interior walls and ceilings. It can be used on all load-bearing and absorbent plasters (clay, lime, gypsum, cement), filling compounds, woodchip wallpaper, plain paper wallpaper, non-woven wallpaper, plasterboard, gypsum fibreboard and concrete.


The vegetable casein (plant-based protein), combined with soda, acts as a binder. The soda is added to create a protein-based glue. The production of Kreidezeit Vega wall paint offers a number of advantages, as it reduces transport costs and packaging waste, whilst also extending the shelf life without the need for chemical preservatives.
The paint is characterised by a pleasant, light white shade, which results from the use of Italian marble powder and requires no addition of other optical brighteners such as titanium white.
It is also ideal for use on firmly adhering, matt and absorbent emulsion paints, following the application of test areas. 
For damp rooms, we recommend Kreidezeit lime putty paint.

Full list of ingredients 
Marble powder of various grain sizes, chalk, vegetable casein, porcelain clay, soda, methylcellulose7

Primer
Prime all plasters, fillers, skimmed plasterboard, concrete and old emulsion paints with Vega primer or casein primer and allow to dry thoroughly. Do not prime non-woven or paper wallpaper. 

Mixing the paint
Stir the powder into the specified amount of clean, cold water until the mixture is lump-free. Use a powerful drill with a whisk attachment for this. Leave to swell for at least 30 minutes and stir thoroughly once more before application.

Water requirement/dilution 
The paint should be adjusted with water to achieve a consistency suitable for application to the substrate; if necessary, it must be further thinned.
Rolling: Mix 1 kg of paint powder with 650 ml of water; if necessary, dilute further with a maximum of 100 ml of water.
Brushing: Mix 1 kg of paint powder with 750 ml of water; dilute further with a maximum of 100 ml of water if required. 

Application 
Application temperature: at least 8°C. Stir occasionally during application. Two coats are usually required for full coverage. Do not attempt to cover dark or high-contrast substrates with a single coat; applying the paint too thickly can lead to damage to the finish! Allow previous coats to dry completely before repainting. The paint appears translucent during application; it only achieves full opacity once dry. 
Application: Mix 1 kg of paint powder with 650 ml of water; if necessary, dilute with up to 150 ml. Apply evenly using a cross-hatch technique with a façade paintbrush. 
For roller application: Mix 1 kg of paint powder with 550 ml of water; if necessary, dilute with up to 150 ml. First, apply generously and evenly using a criss-cross motion; immediately afterwards, roll in one direction without applying any further material. 
The mixed paint must be used on the same day. Under no circumstances should paint that smells bad or musty be used: risk of persistent odour problems even after drying! 

Drying time in normal conditions 
Can be painted over after approx. 8 hours. Fully dry after approx. 24 hours. Suitable tools Good medium-pile paint rollers (polyamide) and paint brushes. Recommended from the Kreidezeit range: Facade paintbrush, lime paintbrush, professional paint rollers 

Cleaning the tools 
With water immediately after use.

Tips
  • Use the product within 24 hours. For touch-ups, small quantities of mixed paint can be frozen.
Painting over old emulsion paints
The existing coat must be firmly adhered, matt and slightly absorbent. For better adhesion to the substrate, we recommend adding 30 ml of safflower oil (low-yellowing) per 1 kg of paint powder used. The oil is added to the Vega wall paint after it has swelled, stirring vigorously. Soiled emulsion paint coatings must be cleaned before applying Vega wall paint, e.g. with soda lye. In general, the suitability of the paint should be tested on site in such cases by applying a test patch.
