Decorative architectural trowel-on coating for interiors, with matte metallic effect
Dune Opaco is a decorative coating for interiors with matte metallic charges that creates high-end visual effects and a stunning game of light and shades.
Dune Opaco represents the expression of Novacolor commitment to the environmental sustainability. To reduce the “carbon footprint”, Dune Opaco is formulated with a special binder, made from sustainable biomass, that replaces the fossil raw materials.
This is possible thanks to a technical-productive system called “mass balance approach” certified REDcert².
Application:
- The substrate must be perfectly dry, dust-free, with no humidity and salt stains.
- Resurface or consolidate the surface with specific products if necessary.
- In case of mould, treat the surface with suitable specific products.
- Brush or remove any efflorescence and old peeling paint.
- Higher layers of old lime-based paint and tempera paint must be removed.
- Brush out dust, smog or other deposits before the application.
- In case of non-homogeneous or chalky surfaces, apply one layer of Decofix (micronized wall sealer) diluted, with a brush.
- Over dry and compact substrates, apply one layer of Novaprimer (water-based acrylic pigmented primer), diluted, with a brush or with a roller.
- Over dry primer, apply one layer of Dune Opaco with a roller or with a stainless steel trowel, spreading the paint evenly. Remove any exceeding amounts of product.
- Once the surface is completely dry, apply a second layer of Dune Opaco, not diluted, with a stainless steel trowel or with a short-hair roller using a bit more material.
- Work into the surface still wet using a stainless steel trowel with circular movements, working the product until reaching the desired effect.
- Drying time: 24 hours approx. depending on the kind of substrate, absorption rate and environmental conditions.

Dune Opaco creates velvet-like chromatic effects that are perfectly matching the modern concept of high-end decoration of interior walls in modern environments.
Approximate coverage yields 8-10 m2/l, in two layers, depending on the kind of substrate and its absorption rate.
