Beeck ‘Insil’

solvent free silicate paint for interiors

‘Universal ready-to-use indoor silicate paint for normal to high traffic rooms in private, commercial and administrative buildings, schools and hospitals. For all recoatable surfaces indoors. For lime and cement plasters, lime sandstone and aerated concrete. Also for coarse grained wall paper and glass-fiber fabrics.

Unlike organically bound wall paints, such as synthetic dispersions, Beeck Insil contains silicifiable potash waterglass. Through silicification - the chemical reaction between surface, filler and potash waterglass - an especially durable, strong, diffusible coat is created offering good building physics and room climate properties.’

Material/s: One-component silicate system according to VOB DIN 18 363 / 2.4.1. Binder: potash waterglass, recovered from water, quartz sand and potash. Pigmented exlusively with non-fading mineral pigments. Free of solvents, biocides and preservatives. Low organic co
