Marmoreo
With its brilliance, its charm, its refinement and so on, marble has always been, and is still, a material used in those places where there is the absolute ELEGANCE.
MARMOREO is the decorative product that responds to the demands of these adjectives, and that creates a TIMELESS ELEGANCE.
In fact it doesn’t matter if your house is old rather than modern; MARMOREO is the perfect timeless union, where you can create your own ELEGANT habitat in a timeless place.
MARMOREO has a strong impact in its darker colors and a delicate impact in the lighter ones; it is the decorative that can make a difference from a traditional house to an ELEGANT house.
This product isn’t for everyone, but it is only for those who love authenticity.
Technically, MARMOREO is a self – polishing filler based on bicarbonate lime paste, dust marble and vegetal additives with nice ancient effects.
MARMOREO is applied to any interior wall surface, after the preparation of the substrate, allowing the greatest breathability, favoring the natural diffusion of the humidity through the plaster and the walls, and finally avoiding the formation of molds and bacteria over the years. Since it is a breathable product, MARMOREO isn’t a washable product. If you want to make MARMOREO washable, apply a coat of wax.
PREPARATION OF THE SUPPORT:
New surfaces: make sure that the supports are completely dry. If there are molds, treat the surface with suitable restoring products. Remove possible efflorescence and paints that are peeling off with brushes and washes. Prime the surface with a coat of our product “SABBIAFOND PER MARMOREO” diluted with water to 20 – 25 %.
Old surfaces: remove old paints that are peeling off. Tempera paintings must be removed with brushes and washes. Prime the surface with a coat of our product “SABBIAFOND PER MARMOREO” diluted with water to 20 – 25 %.
APPLICATION:
MARMOREO is ready for use. After applying a coat of “SABBAFOND PER MARMOREO” in order to insure a perfect drying, proceed with the preparation of the paint with the colors of the color chart and let it stand for at least twenty-four hours.
Apply MARMOREO on the surface with a steel spatula.
Wait from 8 to 14 hours for a perfect drying and apply a second coat of MARMOREO with a shaving steel spatula in order to make the surface completely smooth.
Wait 8 – 10 hours for the drying. Before applying the third coat, we recommend mixing MARMOREO to make it more fluid in the application.
In this way, the product will penetrate on the entire surface by closing any cracks and making the support perfectly smooth. The application of the third coat must be made with a steel spatula in an inclined position in the way “metto e tolgo” (“put and remove”) for about 1 square metre.
Wait 30 seconds about and pass again the spatula, always in an inclined position and well clean.
Proceed in this way on the entire surface by placing on the previous coat in order to eliminate any junction marks. In this way, you will obtain a surface, that is completely glossy and soft to the touch.
