keim concretal ® – the beaut y of concrete !
MINERAL NATURE OF THE CONCRETE LOOK Matt, silicate coatings look much more natural than synthetic coatings. Dispersions lead to dry layer thickness between 0.3 mm and 0.5 mm thus levelling irregularities and cover the material texture of the concrete. Appearance and haptics are distorted, violating the natural beauty of the concrete. Mineral coatings don‘t overlay the natural concrete texture, in fact they accentuate. This is especially the case when the application is performed in glazing technique with semi-transparent up to highly translucent coatings. Mineral paints, stains and glazes retain the aesthetic of the material even with a colour design and provide clearly more flexibility than tinted concrete.
