Impera Italia Gimcyn Colour Chart with 18 Hand Applied Paint Swatches Made Using Genuine Paint. Includes Application Guidance.

• Suitable for use on Normal paint, old plasters, concrete surfaces, gypsum plasters, plasterboard, MDF, timber and metal surfaces after Gimcyn primer.
• Surface Preparation - Make sure the surface is completely dry, dust free and all impurities have been removed. In case of mould, treat the surface with suitable specific products. Brush or remove any efflorescence and old peeling paint or wallpaper. If you are planning to apply Gimcyn on a dusty, chalky or high porous area, you should use Atomo (To be applied before Gimcyn Primer) This will help to consolidate the surface! Once the surface has been prepared you must apply Gimcyn primer. Dilute Gimcyn primer with 30% of water (0.5L of primer with 150mL water, or, 1L of primer with 300 mL water), and apply it with a short pile, or mohair roller. Wait for 2 to 4 hours for the primer to get completely dry. Before applying Gimcyn, stir the pot and apply it with an Italian special effect brush. Once you’ve applied a half square metre and the paint has started to settle (approx. 2 mins), the effect can be changed or finalised with a sponge. In case you do a ‘brush effect‘, use the effect brush. The finish will be touch dry within an hour and completely dry after 12 hours. Only a single coat is needed for the effect, but in case it’s needed more paint can be put on the surface by sponge.
