Proven Compatibility with Licata System Primers

Our paste coatings are carefully developed to work seamlessly with Licata’s specialist primers. When applied together, they deliver excellent adhesion and durability on various substrates. This compatibility helps ensure that painted surfaces stay in good condition over time.

By pairing Licata primers and paste coatings, you reduce the risk of common problems such as peeling or flaking. Each coating bonds effectively, forming a protective barrier that prevents micro cracks and provides superior resistance to weathering and moisture.

For best results, always use Licata-approved primers with our paste coatings. This ensures your facade remains protected and attractive, maintaining its smooth finish year after year.

Performance Backed by Lab Testing

At Licata, our paste coatings undergo rigorous testing to confirm their effectiveness. Our coatings offer proven protection against harsh elements, ensuring reliable waterproofing and impressive durability. This guarantees your building’s facade remains intact even in challenging conditions.

Extensive laboratory tests also confirm our coatings provide excellent resistance against UV rays, environmental chemicals, and corrosion. By consistently testing our products, we deliver coatings that reliably meet strict industry standards.

Choosing Licata means selecting paste coatings that you can trust. Our scientific approach assures lasting performance, giving you peace of mind for your facade investment.

Shelf Life and On-Site Handling Guidance

Our paste coatings have an excellent shelf life, typically maintaining their performance for up to 12 months if stored properly. To keep them in good condition, always store containers tightly sealed in a cool, dry area, protected from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.

For the best results during application, check the viscosity before use. Stir the paste thoroughly before applying by roller, trowel, or spray equipment. This ensures even coating distribution and prevents premature drying or inconsistencies in the finish.

If you need further handling advice or information about specific storage conditions, please contact our technical team. We are always ready to provide detailed guidance based on your project’s unique needs.

The following are just some of our leading-edge paste coating solutions.

Licata Idrosil Exterior Mineral Micro-Coating

Use Licata Idrosil Exterior Mineral Micro-Coating for the decoration of external surfaces on existing residential or commercial structures. This micro-coating is recommended for use on cured substrates that have undergone at least 4 weeks of curing time. Those would include lime and cementitious-based residential finishes, gypsum (following the application of the appropriate primer) as well as surfaces that had previously undergone standard painting. This leading-edge paste coating is generally best-suited for painted surfaces that call for a finish with both waterproofing and high-transpiring qualities.

Licata Nanosil Primer

Licata Nanosil Primer exhibits outstanding water vapour permeability and adhesion, while also being photocatalytic and self-cleaning. Based on stabilised potassium silicate it exhibits high adhesive strength, elasticity and breathability.

Licata Elasto Paint

Licata Elasto Paint is one of our micro-coatings based on a proprietary mix of special acrylic resins in an aqueous dispersion. It is easy to apply and exhibits outstanding flow properties and waterproofing capabilities. It is designed and formulated to address cracks, plaster cobwebs, microcracks and cracks derived from settling.

Licata Elasto Paint is intended to provide protection against the carbonation of concrete. This is important because carbonation leads to a drop in the pH level of the pore solution in the concrete. This causes the passive layer covering and protecting rebar from corrosion to become unstable.

Licata Elasto Paint also displays impressive resistance to ageing, freezing and de-icing salts. And because the formulation contains a proven anti-mildew additive you also get enhanced resistance to assaults from fungi, algae and a variety of moulds.

And finally, in spite of the fact that it displays a high degree of elasticity Licata Elasto Paint exhibits low dirt retention due to the inclusion of an elastomeric copolymer which reacts to sunlight by increasing surface hardness without compromising elasticity.

Licata Decorative Silicone Paint

Silicone is a man-made polymer used as an essential raw material in the paint and coatings industry. It is highly prized for its weather resistance, non-toxicity, resistance to mould, algae and fungi, resistance to chemicals, and water-repellent qualities. Licata Decorative Silicone Paint exhibits all these qualities as well as being able to adhere to a wide variety of substrates and having myriad internal and external applications.

In addition, Licata Decorative Silicone Paint demonstrates a number of other important features, including its ability to repel dirt, dust and airborne contaminants, the fact that it adheres well to new and weathered surfaces, its high degree of breathability and its outstanding vapour permeability.

Licata Decorative Silicone Paint is versatility incarnate. As mentioned above it can be effectively applied to a wide array of substrates both indoors and outdoors. It is especially effective on cementitious substrates that have undergone at least 4 weeks of curing time as is typically the case with tunnels, underpasses and other outdoor concrete structures.

Licata Silsan Colour

Licata Silsan Colour is a waterproof, mould-resistant acryl-siloxane paste coating for decorating facades that is notable for its smooth, soft and uniform finish. Licata Silsan Colour is highly water repellent due to its balance of siloxanes and acrylic polymers, exhibits outstanding adhesion strength which makes it compatible with most substrates used in construction and is available in a wide variety of colours.
