How To Apply Color Atelier Sealer

Color Atelier offer water-based sealer and wax-based sealers. Clear, protective top coats that are suitable for limewash paint, plaster, and tadelakt surfaces; designed to protect, and highlight the surface’s natural appearance, without affecting its color or finish. These sealers give a very low sheen, similar to eggshell, and can be polished to a higher sheen, if desired.

Please note that on darker colors, ​the sealer​ can slightly deepen the shade. However, on lighter colors, this enhancement is generally not visible.

For Tadelakt wet areas; select the Wax-sealer.

The application is simple and quick, do not overwork it, and make sure to apply it thin, avoid thick coats. Simply apply it with a brush in a multi-direction method in thin layers, and brush it on section by section, back wipe any excess and rub in softly using a circular motion with a lint free cloth. One or two coats of sealer are recommended depending on the area. Allow the sealer to dry completely in between coats. NOTE: Allow the final coat of Tadelakt, lime plaster or lime paint surfaces to dry/ cure at least for 2-3 days before applying the sealer on top.
