IKALIKA PAINT
IKALIKA PAINT
Lime-Based Paint.
Suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
Decorative and hygienic coating for walls. Ikalika Paint produces a moisture permeable coating. This property has been termed ‘breathability’ because excess water in masonry and plastered walls can pass through the plaster and paint coating which will avoid the problems associated with damp in walls.
