Technical Characteristics

RAFFAELLO MADREPERLATO by OIKOS is a special mother of Pearl finish for RAFFAELLO DECOR STUCCO by OIKOS based on natural minerals (lime putty). The product guarantees the substrate maximum vapour permeability and aids the natural diffusion of humidity through the wall, thus avoiding, over time, the formation of mould and bacteria. It is odourless, non-toxic, non-flammable and totally environmentally friendly.

Ideal Use

Decoration of walls and interior surfaces, PVC, metal, wood and laminated surfaces.

Surface Preparation

Clean the surface to be decorated, and apply the recommended fixative, IL PRIMER by OIKOS in order to ensure perfect adhesion of the product to the surface.

Application Method

To achieve the perfect finish, apply the three coats cycle using a steel trowel by OIKOS.

• First and second coat: proceed to smooth over the entire surface with RAFFAELLO DECOR STUCCO white or coloured as indicated on the colour chart in order to obtain a perfectly smooth, matt surface. Wait 6 to 8 hours between each coat in order for them to dry.
• Final coat: proceed to apply the colour of RAFFAELLO MADREPERLATO by OIKOS indicated on the colour chart, in patches well spaced between each other, thus obtaining an irregular pattern. After several minutes apply a very thin veil of the product over the whole area at the same time smoothing and polishing the surface, obtaining a pearly, effect depending on how much the surface is polished.
