Soldalit silicate paints remain cleaner for a longer time period. Acrylic/latex paints due to their “plastic” nature develop a static charge when wind blows across the surface. This charge acts like a magnet for dirt and dust particles. Soldalit paints are completely inert and will not develop a charge, so dirt is not attracted to the mineral surface. And, synthetic latex/acrylic finishes become soft when the weather is hot, developing a “tacky” surface which can trap and embed the attracted dirt particles leaving the surface dingy and dirty
after just a few years of wear. numbers on the surface.
Soldalit’s mineral structure does not soften, even under extreme heat, so no dirt is never trapped on the surface. All Soldalit products are anti-static and will look clean and fresh longer. Surface condensation and moisture too can lead to biological soiling and staining. Moisture does not condense on Soldalit for added resistance to biological growth.
THE SCIENCE OF DIRT PICK-UP
Latex/acrylic paints and elastomeric finishes are made from synthetic “plastic” resins and can attract dirt from the environment.
Soldalit penetrates and becomes part of the masonry surface making it completely inert or stone-like so it does not attract dirt.
In wind, the inert, anti-static nature of Soldalit never attracts dirt particles On hot, sunny days, ordinary paints can become soft and sticky and embed dirt In humid conditions, Soldalit eliminates condensation keeping the surface drier
