MINERAL SILICATE ENSURES LONGEST LIFE AND TRUEST COLORS

MINERAL SILICATE PAINTS + GLAZES PENETRATE AND FORM PERMANENT BONDS Mineral-Art ™ paints, stains and glazes provide ultimately long life to ensure your artist legacy. Lifespans of more than 100 years are documented in frescos and murals across Europe, where Adolph Wilhelm Keim invented mineral silicate paints in 1878. Today, the quality and commitment to craftsmanship is stronger than ever. Keim mineral silicate paints are meticulously handcrafted to deliver the highest performance. Every batch of paint is custom made with only natural ingredients. By penetrating porous masonry surfaces, these paints form permanent chemical bonds within the masonry so they can never peel or lose adhesion. And because they are extremely vapor permeable, mineral silicate paints will never trap moisture in the wall and will never blister from buildup of water behind the paint finish. This ensures your art will last for decades.
