Product Description:
A mildew resistant and water repellent, highly durable and breathable mineral-based exterior silicate wall paint.
Mineral paints and stains chemically bond to all forms of masonry substrates such as brick, stone, mortar, stucco, and cement. Unlike latex paints, they are non-film-forming which creates a permanent bond that works in harmony with the masonry.
Potassium Silicate Paint is a thick-bodied masonry paint.
Can be brushed, rolled or sprayed on
Available in 13 stock colors
Custom colors available upon request
Color variations available:
Coverage 300-340 sq. ft. per gallon
Properties of Potassium Silicate Paint
Ecologic™ Potassium Silicate Paint is a highly durable interior & exterior silicate dispersion paint due to its vapor-permeability and chemical bonding with the substrate. It is non-combustible, fire retardant, washable, and bonds & cures after penetrating the substrate and petrification of the quartz binder.
Where to use it
Ecologic™ Potassium Silicate Dispersion Paint can be used on most rigid and absorbent exterior and interior wall surfaces. Ideal are mineral-based surfaces such as concrete, lime & cement plaster (stucco), brick, stone, or old powdery stucco if it has been solidified by a mineralizing coat of Ecologic™ Waterglass Primer & Consolidant.

Goes a long way & is easy to apply.
I mixed some of this paint with the water glass to extend the coverage and half the pint did a very nice job covering the walls in the back room of the basement. Pics included are a half-painted wall (white is the cleaned/patched/painted side), and a before/after of the wall before priming with waterglass and a tiny amount of the paint just to tint it barely white. The final coat on the wall turned it totally opaque and it looks WAAAY less filthy than it did before (it covered drips, stains, etc with ease).

I painted an unfinished cement addition on our historic house with this paint in 2014. Color was yellow ochre. The amount of coverage I got with one gallon was remarkable. The paint is simply beautiful and it looks as good now in 2020 as it did when I painted it. Beautiful texture, excellent on cement. Fantastic product. I have recommended it many times to others.
