Are you looking for a simple and stylish way to give your furniture a new look? Then our Mineral Paint is the solution!

In this blog, we explain how, with the right technique and products, you can achieve the most beautiful results, from a sleek concrete look to a smoother effect.

What is Mineral Paint?
Our Mineral Paint is a high-quality water-based paint with a unique texture and fine grain. It offers a strong and durable finish that is perfect for furniture you want to give a new look. Due to its special composition, the paint has excellent adhesion and stays beautiful for a long time. Whether you want to create a sleek, modern look, a subtle concrete look or any other unique look, our Mineral Paint is a perfect match for any style.

Preparation: The basis for a perfect result
Before getting started with the Mineral Paint, it is important to prepare your surface properly. This ensures that the paint adheres well and produces the best results.

General preparation for all substrates:
Clean and grease the surface: Make sure the furniture surface is thoroughly clean and grease-free. Remove dirt, dust and grease to ensure proper adhesion.
Ensure an even surface: It is important that the surface is flat and even so that the paint can adhere and apply nicely.
Non-absorbent substrates (such as wood and steel):
Most furniture has a wood substrate, but steel furniture can also be painted with our Mineral Paint. Both substrates are non-absorbent, which means you need the Mineral Grip Primer to ensure proper paint adhesion.

Sanding up (for wooden furniture): If the piece of furniture already has an old coat of paint, sand it well to roughen the surface. This allows the primer and paint to adhere better. Use 120- or 180-grit sandpaper to do this.

Apply a coat of Mineral Grip Primer: Apply the primer evenly with a roller or block brush and allow it to dry thoroughly before continuing. This is essential for strong paint adhesion, whether you have a wood or steel substrate.

Application of the Mineral Paint
After preparation, it is time to apply the Mineral Paint. Applying the paint should always be done with a block brush. This allows for a tighter and more controlled finish and helps maintain the characteristic concrete look effect. The block brush gives a beautiful, classic look that perfectly complements the concrete look.

Tips for a beautiful effect without grain:
After applying the first layer of Mineral Paint, let it dry thoroughly.
Lightly sand the second coat with 220-grit paper for a super smooth result. This is best done by machine for the best effect. Then apply a second coat and let it dry.

The finishing touch: Coating layer
To protect your furniture and maintain the desired effect, apply a coating coat. For most applications, we recommend a 1-component lacquer. This is easy to apply with a block brush to maintain the concrete look.

For furniture surfaces that are used more intensively, such as countertops, we recommend a 2-component lacquer for added durability and protection. This lacquer offers greater resistance to scratches, moisture and wear.

Step-by-step guide:
- Clean and grease the surface and make sure it is even.
- Apply Mineral Grip Primer with a roller or block brush and allow to dry.
- Apply the first coat of Mineral Paint with a block brush.
- Apply the second coat of Mineral Paint and let it dry thoroughly.
- Lightly sand the second coat with 220-grit paper (optional, but recommended for a smoother effect).
- Apply the coating layer with a block brush to maintain the concrete look effect.
