Is "elephant skin" still available? It was used in the past.

Yes, it exists, but it shines in a strange way.

Does dispersion silicate paint work on silicate coating without primer and is there any with abrasion class 1? The painter could have told me that. That would be great. Has anyone done this already and has experience?

Assume that you previously also applied a dispersion silicate paint. Pure silicate is hardly encountered anymore due to the application process. I would just paint. I can't say anything about the abrasion classes.

No problem on facades.

As far as I know, it is pure silicate paint. The walls were previously plastered and then painted with silicate paint. The painter left me a jar with the paint back then, and it became solid and unusable after a short time.

That’s how it should be and no other way. In my opinion - pardon my French - latex paint is the absolute worst and nowhere near as easy to maintain as you might think. I know someone who had washable latex paint applied up to about 1.20 m height in a heavily used stairwell, and it was a complete disaster. It looks ugly and is harder to clean than the dispersion silicate paint applied on the upper part. We also once painted a small section of wall in an awkward spot in an old kitchen (where there really should have been a tiled backsplash) with latex paint in the hope that stains, splashes, etc., would be easier to clean off. The opposite was true here as well. Tomato sauce splashes immediately soaked in and left pink stains that couldn’t be removed. If you scrub too hard, you damage the surface and it starts flaking off in small crumbs. I can only strongly advise against it.



I would be interested in the answer to this question too. In our old apartment, we did exactly that. Fiberglass mesh plastered in, mineral primer, and then dispersion silicate paint. Visually much nicer and more high-quality than painter’s fleece, and excellent indoor climate. In our current (interim) apartment, the landlady had painter’s fleece applied and in our opinion, it looks terrible. Every drill hole remains visible forever and the walls absorb moisture much worse. To put it bluntly, it feels like the wall was wallpapered with plastic bags. Why someone would actively choose that is not clear to me. I assume lower costs, less effort, and easier to apply.
