Paint "Caparol": benefits
Due to the many advantages, Caparol products are in great demand among consumers around the world. And one of the most important advantages is the environmental friendliness of the paint material.

All colors markedthe special environmental label "Blue Angel", which is awarded in Germany by the Federal Office for the Environment, and the exterior paint "Caparol" and other materials are marked with the emblem "Green Eco Flower".
When comparing Caparol products with finishing materials from other companies, you can see that conventional enamels contain up to 50% solvents. And the silicate and dispersion facade paint "Caparol" contains 0-2% solvents.
Using the products of this campaign allows you to solve all environmental problems, protect people who perform painting work, make further living indoors pleasant and safe.
Color palette (fan) "Caparol Color" contains more than 180 shades. It features popular natural colors such as bas alt, apricot, cognac, pomegranate and more.
Thanks to all these advantages, Caparol products have only positive reviews.
Features of acrylic facade paints
Thanks to the wide variety of Caparol's acrylate products, many problems associated with facade finishing can be solved. The most famous and sought-after material from this series is the Amphibolin Caparol paint (Amphibolin), which received only positive feedback from customers. Product different:
- resistance to aggressive gases and alkalis;
- excellent resistance tomoisture;
- good filling power.
The coating does not interfere with the diffusion of water vapor and is easy to process.
An equally popular product with positive reviews is Cap-elast Unitop paint, which has the ability to maintain elasticity even at low temperatures (down to -20 ° C). Under the influence of UV radiation, it forms a molecular network. Thanks to this, the facade is protected from the effects of atmospheric influences and air polluting chemicals under extreme temperature conditions.
The structure of the material is such that it allows you to fully solve the problem with cracks on the surface of the walls of the building. The elastic components of the mixture are able to penetrate into all cracks, creating a rehabilitation coating.
Another advantage of Cap-elast Unitop paint is its vapor permeability. Product consumption 250-300 ml/m2 when finishing a smooth surface. When painting a rough surface, the material consumption increases.
Dispersion facade paints
This series includes three main products:
- Acryl-Fassadenweis;
- Muresko-plus;
- Amphisil.
Muresko-plus paint
Of all the materials in this group, this paint is used most often. And this is not surprising, because, according to customer reviews, it has many advantages:
- Muresko-plus paint can be used in all climatic conditions.
- The material is able to withstand adverse weather conditions, is resistant to wind and precipitation.
- Provides UV resistance, forming a durable and reliable coating on the surface.
- Has a fairly high adhesive ability.
- Protects the base from moisture.
- Walls covered with such material are able to "breathe" and do not accumulate moisture.
Muresko-plus can be applied to smooth and structured surfaces.
Average consumption of material when painting smooth surfaces is 200 ml/m2.
Features of polymer resin paint
Paint "Caparol" based on polymer binders with a low content of solvents is especially suitable for finishing facades with not very durable surfaces (if, for example, a layer of plaster crumbles or there is an old paint coating).
The advantages of this group of materials include:
- high adhesion;
- resistance to temperature extremes;
- providing reliable wall protection.
Each type of material in this series has its own properties.
For example, the wall paint "Caparol Duparol-W" with algicidal and fungicidal additives is perfect for facades affected by fungi and moss.
Dupa-Haftgrund paint has an excellent firming effect. Most often it is used for finishing walls of facades with peeling coatings, porous surfaces or for priming and subsequent painting.
According to user reviews, the main advantage of this material is high adhesion and leveling ability.
Average paint consumption of this group is 200–250 ml/m2.
Features of paint based on siloxane resins
This group of materials includes paints:
- AmphiSilan-Volltonfarbe;
- AmphiSilan;
- AmphiSilan-Streichfueller;
- special primer.
Siloxane resin paint is diluted with water. The material in its composition does not contain solvents and does not emit emissions harmful to he alth.
According to reviews, the main advantages of materials of this type include:
- high weather resistance;
- water vapor transmission;
- quick drying;
- good filling capacity.
The most famous representative of this group of materials is AmphiSilan paint. This material is well suited for finishing facades with plaster and mineral coatings.
Average paint consumption from 150 to ml/m2 for smooth substrates. Resin acts as a binder, similar in structure to quartz. The coating formed when using the paint allows for maximum vapor transmission. But at the same time, it reliably protects the facade of the house from rain.
Such paints "Caparol", the palette of which is very diverse, have increased resistance to chemicals, are easy to maintain, durable and suitable for facing public and residential buildings. Can also be used for restoration work.
Silicate materials
This group includes, in addition to non-dispersion and dispersion paint materials on a silicate basis, also primers. All products are united by the Siliton name and have silicate binders, which allow you to get a durable coating with excellent performance.
The paints of this group do not retain vapors, allow the walls of the house to "breathe". In addition, they do not allow moisture to pass through and provide reliable protection to the base. Widely used in the decoration and restoration of buildings with natural stone and brick bases.

Painting
Before you start painting the wall, you need to prepare the base. When painting concrete or plaster, make sure the surface is dry and hard. The base is cleaned of dust, dirt. The previously painted surface gets rid of the lagging layer of paint. Metal parts are cleaned of rust.
Now you need to decide on the number of applied layers of facade paint (painted in 1-3 layers). If the base is smooth and even, it is better to cover with two layers in order to save paint material consumption. The first layer is a primer. When applying it, it is recommended to mix the paint with a special primer gel and water (no more than 5% of the paint volume). With a three-layer painting system, a primer is applied, after it dries, 2 layers of paint are applied. The top layer of paint can be diluted with water (no more than 15%). That will make it possible to make the layer thinner and reduce material consumption. The three-layer painting system allows better protection of the surface from moisture penetration. It should be remembered that each next layer is applied only after the previous one has dried. This time is indicated on the packaging and is approximately 10-12 hours.
