Cantillana Granosil’color Silicone Paint (10ltr) WH76

Cantillana Silicone Resin-Based Façade Paint is a high-performance coating solution developed to meet the demands of modern façade protection. Designed for professional use, it combines the natural benefits of silicone resin technology with advanced additives to deliver outstanding durability, breathability, and aesthetic performance. This makes it a versatile choice for new builds, refurbishments, and external wall insulation (EWI) system renovations.

Versatile Applications

The paint is suitable for a wide range of mineral substrates, including smooth and textured renders, sandlime brick finishes, traditional brickwork, and other mineral-based surfaces. In addition, it is recommended as a renovation paint for external wall insulation systems, where maintaining vapour permeability and long-term durability is essential.

Performance Advantages

The key advantage of Cantillana Silicone Resin-Based Façade Paint lies in its ability to provide a protective, non-film-forming surface. Unlike conventional paints that trap moisture, it allows walls to breathe while simultaneously repelling water. This dual action helps to prevent cracking, blistering, or peeling caused by trapped moisture, extending the life of façades in challenging environments.

Its water-repellent properties (in compliance with DIN 18363) shield buildings from driving rain, while resistance to atmospheric influences, soiling, algae, mould, bleeding, and UV degradation ensures façades remain cleaner and more vibrant for longer. The paint is non-thermoplastic and stress-free, contributing to a stable finish even under thermal fluctuations.

Aesthetic and Colour Stability

Cantillana’s façade paint is available in standard white or as Granosil’color across a full colour range. To ensure consistency, it is recommended that previous and new deliveries be mixed when reordering due to possible slight variations from natural raw materials and drying conditions. For use with EWI systems, darker shades (with a brightness value below 20) should be avoided to maintain performance and surface stability.

Application and Handling

The product is supplied ready for manual or spray application, making it convenient for professional site use. For best results:

• Substrates should be flat, stable, clean, and dry, with loose or damaged areas removed and repaired.

• Application should not take place below +5°C (air and substrate), and surfaces should be protected from torrential rain, direct sun, wind, and rapid drying during application.

• Stir thoroughly before use, and clean all tools immediately after application with water.
  
  

Recommended system build-up:

• Primer: Granol’plus IG or Granol’plus W

• First coat: Granosil’color diluted up to 10% with water

• Top coat: Granosil’color diluted up to 5% with water

Windows, sills, and adjacent surfaces should be protected during works to prevent contamination.

Sustainability and Environmental Profile

The paint is water-dilutable and environmentally friendly, offering a low-impact alternative that aligns with modern sustainability standards while delivering reliable, long-lasting protection. Its formulation ensures façades remain both visually appealing and resistant to biological growth without compromising indoor moisture management.

Coverage and Efficiency

Typical consumption is approximately 200 ml/m² per coat on smooth surfaces. As surface porosity and texture can influence coverage, a test area is recommended to confirm exact usage before full application.

Cantillana Silicone Resin-Based Façade Paint is a professional-grade solution that balances protection, breathability, and aesthetics, making it an ideal choice for architects, contractors, and installers seeking long-term façade performance in both residential and commercial projects.
