So my experiences are as follows. First of all, the paint is heavy. So the fully saturated roller actually weighs more than with the other paints I’ve had. That might not matter on the first wall, but in the long run it really takes a toll on the arms. Then, in my impression, one roller is not very economical, meaning you have to dip it more often. However, the paint is tricky, because the paint shows whiteness after drying, i.e. it looks less white when fresh than when dry. This leads to sometimes possibly applying too much in some spots, which then pays off later. The paint builds up. By that I mean that the paint particles virtually accumulate and thus emphasize unevenness in the substrate. So we had a relatively smooth gypsum plaster for lay eyes and hands. But after the first coat of Alpenkalk, it didn’t even look like Q2. There were stripes, streaks, dimples, and bumps everywhere, almost like orange peel. And where there was an extra layer due to the behavior described above, the white really looked thicker. I then completely sanded the first room again and painted it again, with moderate success. The other rooms we painted this way also only got a little better despite thorough resanding beforehand. I’ve been told that many of the described characteristics (especially the whitening after drying and the higher weight) are typical properties of all lime paints. Considering that Alpenkalk also contains dispersion, which should actually make application easier, I dread the idea of working with a pure lime putty paint, which also has to be mixed yourself. It may be that it won’t be so bad for you if you want to paint on textured plaster and you like a rustic look anyway.
