Coatings, Sealants & Paints Silancolor Tonachino PLUS by Mapei Mapei’s Silancolor Tonachino PLUS is a fibre-reinforced silicon resin-based coating, ideal for internal and external surfaces that can be affected by the growth of algae, mould and fungi. It comes in a paste form with good filling capacity, making it perfect for a contemporary finish. Silancolor Tonachino Plus is particularly ideal for protecting deteriorating or north-facing facades due to its excellent repellence to water and its resistance to UV rays, cracking, and ageing. Available in various grain sizes, including new 1.5mm, it combines the advantages of mineral coating materials for high breathability, as well as those of synthetic coatings for a uniform colour, excellent adhesion to old paintwork (depending on its condition), and is available in a wide range of colours. www.mapei.com Introducing the Earthborn #Claymates Earthborn has relaunched its website with some wonderful new features, offering paint colour ideas, decorating tips, the latest news and competitions.
