DecoFinish

Technical Characteristics

RAFFAELLO DECOR STUCCO by OIKOS is a vapour permeable wall coating made from natural minerals (lime putty) and is ideal for recreating an ancient style of decoration, the so called "marble effect".

The use of RAFFAELLO DECOR STUCCO by OIKOS guarantees maximum vapour permeability and aids the natural diffusion of humidity through the wall, therefore avoiding the formation, over time, of mould and bacteria. It is non-flammable, non-toxic, non-polluting and is totally environmentally friendly.

Ideal Use

Decoration of interior walls and 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 product in three coats using a stainless steel trowel by OIKOS.

• First coat: apply the first coat of RAFFAELLO DECOR STUCCO in such a way as to perfectly smooth over the surface. Wait for 6 to 8 hours until dry.
• Second coat: apply a very fine layer of product so as to render the surface perfectly smooth but matt. Wait 6-8 hours until dry.
• Final coat: apply a thin layer of product smoothing it at the same time onto the surface with the blade of the trowel.

Depending on the tool utilised and the intensity of the application, it is possible to achieve a matt, satin or gloss finish.

Finishing / Protective

In order to obtain a higher level of water resistance and washability, apply CERA PER RAFFAELLO by OIKOS after 4 to 5 days.
