Achieve marble-like glossiness with Stuki Premium paint. The product is an interesting choice not only for its ability to create outstanding decorative details to the surface, but also for its physical qualities that can effectively remove moisture, reducing the chance of peeling paint. Stuki Premium paint is a Lime Base product, which uses natural limestone as the principal raw material. The paint is completely free of toxic and cancer-causing chemicals and volatile matters, making it odorless and safer for our health.
There are few little tricks when it comes to using Stuki Premium paint. The coating should be applied twice. Firstly, the surface needs to be cleaned before applying a thorough coating, and it is recommended to leave the first layer of coating to dry for 30 minutes. Use a fine piece of sandpaper to evenly smoothen the surface before applying the second layer of coating to create the pattern. Then, leave it to dry for another 30 minutes. Afterwards, use a towel to do the final touch up and achieve the desired glossiness before cleaning the surface with tissue paper or a microfiber cleaning cloth.

Whether by spraying or coating, the product answers to designers’ creative desires while offering excellent resistance to unpredictable climates, UV rays and sea sprays. The paint’s durable layers do not peel off or create white dust, minimizing the need for future maintenance.

Effortless is the word that describes how effectively Color Stucco can be used. Firstly, clean and prep the surface with a primer product of choice. Use a brush to paint the desired area and leave the surface for approximately six hours. Prepare the paint and coat it over the desired surface by sparing or using a towel. When complete, leave the area to dry and keep the painted surface away from water for at least 24 hours.
With modern-day consumers’ growing and more diverse demands, architecture has seen greater diversity in its evolution. Answering to endless creative possibilities, Stuki Premium and Color Stucco paints are exciting and refreshing alternatives for designers to expand their horizons.
