USE
Punic Wax is a glossy finish coat for:
- Stucco Fine, Tadelakt, Marmorino and 0.5 mm lime plaster
- Marbled effects (e.g. milk paint)
- Encaustic
- Casein paint
It is also used as an additive in casein paint to:
- obtain spatulate effects
- do stencil decoration
- create a glossy finish
APPLICATION
- On Marmorino, Stucco Fine, 0.5 mm lime plaster: Apply the Punic Wax undiluted with a Venetian spatula or a Steel Trowel in one or more thin layers. Apply only to surfaces previously treated with Marseille soap. After drying, polish with a Venitien trowel to smooth out.
- On Tadelakt: Apply the Punic Wax undiluted in a thin coat with a ball-rolled cloth, and buff immediately with a clean, dry, soft ball-rolled cloth. Apply only to surfaces previously treated with Marseille soap.
- Marbled effects: On marbled effects made with Milk Paint, for example, apply the Punic Wax in a thin layer with a trowel. To obtain an even shine, polish after drying with a soft cloth, a horsehair brush, or a polishing machine (be careful, too much pressure and RPM can damage the surface due to the heat). The Punic wax coating gives the treated surface depth and transparency effects reminiscent of real marble.
- Polishing wall paint: By adding 15% Punic wax to Milk Paint (0.75 kg of Punic wax for 5 kg of powder) or a tempera, a beautiful satin shine is obtained after drying and polishing. Mix the wax only in the already mixed paint, and after its resting time.
DRYING TIME
Approximately 5 – 6 hours at 20 °C.
