KEIM Twinstar isn't just a one-coat exterior paint; it's a 'two in one' eco-friendly mineral paint system that significantly accelerates the application process. It eliminates the need for drying between coats, reducing waiting times and allowing for the simultaneous application of the base and top coats 'wet on wet.' This system has been purposefully designed to minimize labor time, leading to cost savings and shorter equipment hire periods, such as scaffolding, while expediting building re-occupancy and minimizing disruptions, including road closures. As an added benefit, the application is unaffected by rain, making it ideal for unpredictable weather conditions.
Thanks to its unique formulation and the integration of various physical action approaches, KEIM Twinstar offers dependable fouling protection without the need for the addition of biocides. It's an innovative sol-silicate-based functional coating designed for facades, seamlessly combining high application efficiency with water-repellent, highly diffusible, lightfast, UV-stable, and extremely weather-resistant qualities. The KEIM Twinstar color range comprises light to medium shades and can be tinted using KEIM PPF-Technology® to match a wide range of standard color collections.
