Decorative top-coat finishing for interiors, with “washed out” effect and soft metallic patterns
Animamundi re-interprets innovatively the idea of “washed-out Concrete”, presenting a product with both a soft pearl-opaque look and a strong textured-feel effect.Decoration of luxury inter, in line with the most modern and ground-breaking trends of “concreteness” in architecture. Animamundi can fulfil the widest demands for interior finishes, ensuring both textured-like feels and prestigious effects with its soft metallic shades.
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 substrate, apply one layer of Animamundi with a stainless steel trowel, spreading the paint evenly and paying attention not to create amounts of product. Work into the surface still wet to remove any exceeding amount of product.
- Once the surface is completely dry, apply a second layer of Animamundi, not diluted, with a stainless steel trowel.
- Work into the surface still wet using a stainless steel trowel until reaching the desired effect.
- Drying time: 24 hours approx. depending on the kind of substrate, absorption rate and environmental conditions.
In case of application on highly stressed surfaces, it is advisable to apply of one or more layers of Clear Coat (transparent protective coat for interiors). Apply Clear Coat over dry surface, diluting the first layer with 20% of water, and the second layer with 5% of water.
The best aesthetic effect is achieved by applying Clear Coat with a thin roller, proceeding from the top to the bottom of the surface.
Surfaces treated with Clear Coat might show a slight change of colour, depending on the quantities of product applied.

Approximate coverage yields 5-8 m2/l, in two layers, depending on the kind of substrate and its absorption rate. It is advisable to determine the real yield with a preliminary test on the specific substrate.
