Nanokalk (CaLoSiL®) – Applications, including possible combinations

1:00 PM - 2:00 PM Thu, 05 Nov
CCL, Banquet room 3, Level 0

Short description

The correct application of a stone consolidant is crucial to the success of a restoration. This also applies to CaLoSiL® (nanocalcium), which has been used successfully for more than 20 years to consolidate plaster, mortar and stone, as well as for wall paintings and sgraffito. Pre-treatment, the selection of the most suitable concentration, the method of application and post-treatment are therefore the focus of the seminar. All stages of the process will be demonstrated through practical experiments and explained in detail. Another key focus will be the question: when is it advisable to combine CaLoSiL® with traditional silicic acid esters or other stone consolidants, and what is the correct procedure in such cases? Participants will also have the opportunity to test the application of CaLoSiL® on their own samples.
