Baumit Glitter – Facade Paint with a Sophisticated Glitter Effect and Designer Appearance
Baumit Glitter is an innovative facade coating designed for those who seek not just protection, but an aesthetic statement for their building. Combining sparkle, finesse, and advanced technological properties, this product offers architects and investors the opportunity to create a distinctive look with a luxurious metallic effect and unique character.
An Effect that Comes to Life in Sunlight
The special formula of Baumit Glitter contains fine glitter particles that create a delicate shimmer when exposed to sunlight. This effect is visible both up close and from a distance, bringing the facade to life with movement and depth. The product is available in various finishes – from classic silver and gold to subtle, iridescent rainbow-like reflections that emphasize the texture and volume of the surface.
Discreet Elegance with High Durability
Unlike overly bold decorative paints, Baumit Glitter balances expressive effect with refined elegance. The coating is transparent and can be applied over previously textured surfaces, enhancing them with depth and a striking metallic sheen. This makes it ideal for both full facades and specific architectural elements such as columns, cornices, or modern design accents.
Ready to Use and Easy to Apply
The product is fully ready for application – it does not require dilution or mixing with other materials. It can be applied manually (using a roller or brush) or by spraying with a Hopper Gun sprayer fitted with a 4 to 6 mm nozzle. For optimal results, a crisscross double-coat application is recommended, as is standard with Baumit facade paints. Sample application on a test area is advisable before proceeding on large surfaces.
Advanced Technology with Excellent Technical Performance
Baumit Glitter provides not only decorative appeal but also high resistance to weather conditions, UV rays, and dirt. The coating is water-repellent yet maintains good vapor permeability, which is essential for the building’s healthy microclimate. Its density is approximately 1 kg/dm³, and the drying time is up to 12 hours, depending on ambient temperature and humidity.
Compatible with a Wide Range of Substrates
Baumit Glitter is compatible with a variety of facade surfaces: lime-cement and cement renders, as well as well-adhered mineral, silicate, silicone, and dispersion paints and renders. For lower quality or unstable substrates, it is recommended to use appropriate primers from the Baumit range – such as MultiPrimer or SanovaPrimer. The product is not suitable for plastics, resins, lacquers, or old oil-based paints.
Surface Preparation and Application – Important Guidelines
To ensure the best results, the substrate must be clean, dry, stable, and free from loose or crumbling areas. Surfaces affected by algae or mold should be pre-treated with special cleaning solutions. During manual application, it is crucial to maintain a consistent technique without interruptions to avoid visual imperfections. Do not apply at temperatures below +5°C or above +30°C.
The Perfect Finish for Contemporary Facades
With its luxurious appearance and technologically advanced formulation, Baumit Glitter is more than just decorative paint – it is a tool for expressing architectural individuality. Whether for new construction or renovation projects, this product offers a designer finish that stands out from standard facade solutions. Suitable for both urban buildings and modern family homes, it delivers long-lasting visual appeal and added value.
