Product Introduction

Limeijia Imitation Stone Coatings are water-based exterior wall coatings mimicking granite, marble and other stones. With diverse effects, they are eco-friendly, easy to apply, replace dry-hung exterior stones and offer strong artistic appeal.

Features of Imitation stone Coatings

1. Simulates the surface effect of marble and granite.
2. Environmentally friendly product with a water-based formula.
3. Weather-resistant coating with UV protection, anti-static properties, and resistance to high temperatures, abrasion, acids, and alkalis.
4. Strong adhesion, non-bubbling, non-peeling, non-fading, waterproof, and mold-resistant.
5. Easy to apply.

Supporting Coatings and Application Tools

Supporting Coatings and Usage

1. Primer: Theoretical consumption is 8–9㎡/kg (1 coat). Actual consumption may vary depending on wall surface roughness or construction methods (refer to the primer product introduction for details).
2. Background Coating: Theoretical consumption is 3–3.5㎡/kg (1 coat). Actual consumption may vary depending on wall surface roughness or construction methods.
3. Imitation stone Coatings: Usage varies among different types of Imitation Stone Coatings; please refer to specific products.
4. Line Coating (optional): Theoretical consumption is 80–100㎡/kg (1 coat for line marking). Actual consumption may vary depending on grid size or line thickness.
5. Finish coat: Theoretical consumption is 6–7㎡/kg (1 coat). Actual consumption may vary depending on wall surface roughness or construction methods (refer to the finish coat product introduction for details).

Note: We will provide and confirm the necessary coatings for your project based on your desired results.

 

Construction Tools

Colorful speckled coating spray gun, air compressor, mixer, roller, brush, grid tape, masking tape, protective film, scraper, sandpaper, file, etc. ( prepare the tools based on project needs).

 

 

Imitation stone Coatings Construction

(Methods may vary based on project design)

 

Pre-Construction Wall Inspection and Environmental Requirements

• Before construction, the wall surface should have a completed putty layer. The surface must be solid, clean, free from cracks, peeling, dust, hollows, lime bursts, poorly adhered old coatings, and oil stains. The wall moisture content should be less than 5%.
• The environmental temperature should be above 8°C, and relative humidity should be below 75% RH.

 

Standard Construction Steps

1. Roll or spray 1 coat of primer.
2. Use line coating and grid tape to create line divisions on the wall, if required by the project. Remove the grid tape after completing Step 4 (optional).
3. Roll or spray 1 coat of background coating.
4. Spray 2 coats of Imitation stone Coatings.
5. Roll or spray 1 coat of protective finish coat.

 

Construction Precautions for Imitation stone Coatings

1. Before large-scale application, spray 1–2 square meters on the wall to confirm the color and effect match the standard sample board. Proceed with large-scale construction only after confirmation.
2. For large-scale application, grid effects should be implemented, and suspended baskets should be used instead of scaffolding to avoid shadowing.
3. It is recommended that the same batch of coating is applied by the same team of workers on the same wall surface to maintain consistency in appearance and prevent uneven coloring.
4. Stir the product thoroughly before use. Imitation stone Coatings can not be stirred with a machine (mixer), can only be stirred by hand with a wooden stick and other tools, and apply using a Colorful speckled coating spray gun. This product does not require dilution.
5. Construction is strictly prohibited when environmental temperatures are below 8°C, relative humidity is above 70% RH, or during rainy, foggy, or windy weather, as these conditions may affect the coating’s formation.
6. During breaks or after application, seal any unused coating tightly to prevent it from drying out in the barrel. Clean tools and clothing promptly; otherwise, dried coating will be difficult to remove.
7. It is recommended to reserve 3-5 barrels of material for future maintenance.

 

Coating Drying Time

(Under conditions of temperatures above 8°C and relative humidity not exceeding 70% RH)

• Primer: Drying time is at least 4 hours. Apply natural stone coating only after the primer is fully dry.
• Background Coating: Drying time is at least 4 hours. Apply waterborne sand coating only after the background paint is fully dry.
• Imitation stone Coatings: Full drying time is at least 72 hours; the recoat interval should be at least 24 hours. Apply the topcoat only after the sand-in-water coating is completely dry.
• Finish coat: Drying time is 2 hours.
• Natural Curing Period: The wall should undergo a natural curing period of 7 days after construction is completed.
