LimePaint is a 100% mineral, eco-friendly, and breathable air-lime paint. Suitable for interior and exterior walls, it provides a matte, elegant, and healthy finish. This manual outlines the essential steps for proper installation, ensuring durability and preserving the product's technical properties. SURFACE PREPARATION: Pre-inspection: Verify that the support is clean, dry, stable and free of dust, grease, salts or disintegrated materials. Repairs: In case of cracks, voids, fissures, or chipping, first repair the surface. Fill irregularities with suitable mortar or filler, respecting the drying times before applying LimePaint. Primer (if applicable): On substrates of different nature (e.g., combinations of plaster and wood), it is recommended to apply a LimePrimer to even out absorption. LIMEPAINT APPLICATION: Product preparation: Open the container and stir slowly with a low-speed mixer. Avoid introducing air into the mixture. If the viscosity requires it, gradually add water until the desired consistency is achieved. It is recommended to perform a preliminary test on a hidden area. First coat: Apply with a brush or roller. Spread evenly over the entire surface. Intermediate drying: Leave to dry for 24 hours under normal conditions (+23 °C, 65% RH). Avoid drafts or extreme temperatures. Second coat: Apply again with a brush or roller. This coat will determine the final finish depending on the tool used (more textured effect with a brush, smoother with a roller). Let dry for at least an additional 24 hours. WET AREAS (BATHROOMS, KITCHENS): Bathrooms (areas not directly exposed to water): Not recommended for use in shower areas. Kitchens: Suitable for walls not directly exposed to splashes or grease. Avoid using it on the kitchen backsplash or areas in direct contact with water or intense heat. ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS: Do not apply when ambient humidity exceeds 80% or temperatures are below +5 °C. Outdoors, avoid application if rain is expected within the next 48 hours. Store the product in a dry, cool place with the container closed

Maintenance
INITIAL CARE: After application, Limecoat Line coatings require a curing period to reach their final strength. Touch dry: between 2 and 4 hours. Complete curing: between 24 and 48 hours, depending on temperature and humidity. During this time, it is recommended to avoid direct contact, dust accumulation, or performing tasks that may soil or mark the surface. DAILY MAINTENANCE: Clean regularly with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For spot stains, diluted neutral soap can be used. Do not use abrasive products, solvents, or harsh chemicals. Avoid impacts with hard objects that could damage the finish. OCCASIONAL CLEANING: Use a damp cloth and, if necessary, a small amount of neutral soap. PERIODIC MAINTENANCE: The frequency will depend on the environment (indoors/outdoors, urban/rural, dry/humid), but as a general guideline, a deeper cleaning is recommended once or twice a year. Use a soft-bristled brush or a non-abrasive sponge. It can be dampened with warm water, without adding harsh detergents. Outdoors, low-pressure water can be used, taking care not to damage the coating. Regular cleaning not only maintains the aesthetic appearance of the finish but also prolongs its lifespan by preserving the natural breathability of the substrate. Keep in mind that more textured finishes may require more frequent cleaning
