Description

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION – Photoluminescent decorative paint for interiors

During the day, LuminoKrom® Pistachio Green diffuses a feeling of natural freshness and contemporary softness. This bright light green creates a lively and balanced atmosphere, ideal for living spaces, bedrooms, creative offices, or reception areas with a refined aesthetic. Inspired by plant tones, the pistachio color adds a subtle decorative touch while maintaining a light visual feel.

When the light goes out, the wall surface reveals a uniform, long-lasting green glow that is visible for up to 9 hours indoors. This transition between day and night transforms the wall into an immersive ambient feature, without the need for artificial lighting or energy consumption.

With a level of photoluminescent performance rarely achieved in the world of interior design, LuminoKrom® Pistachio Green offers noticeable and prolonged light intensity. This capability paves the way for bold creative designs, where color becomes a true medium of expression, alive and evolving over time.

APPLICATION

TIPS FOR EFFECTIVE WATER-BASED PAINT APPLICATION

LuminoKrom® Pistachio Green aqueous photoluminescent paint is easy to apply, following the same principles as traditional interior wall paint. By following a few simple recommendations, you will achieve a uniform, luminous finish and optimal photoluminescent performance.

Before painting, make sure the surface is clean, dry, and in good condition. It is essential to remove dust, grease, or residual moisture. For new walls, such as drywall or recently plastered walls, it is recommended to wait about a month to ensure that the surface is completely stable.

In order to maximize the photoluminescent effect, applying a white undercoat is recommended when the wall is not already light in color. This base promotes light recharge and improves the intensity and duration of luminescence in the dark.

LuminoKrom® Pistachio paint is then applied in two even coats, using a roller or brush, just like a conventional decorative paint.

 

Steps for applying pistachio green water-based paint for design

  1. Clean the surface: Clean the wall thoroughly with clean water or a suitable cleaner, then leave to dry completely.

  2. Mark out the area to be painted: Use masking tape or stencils to protect adjacent areas and achieve clean edges.

  3. Apply the white undercoat (optional if the wall is already white): Apply an even coat of white paint to the entire surface to be painted. This step is essential to ensure optimal luminous effect.

  4. Allow the undercoat to dry: Follow the drying time recommended by the undercoat manufacturer (usually about 2 hours).

  5. Prepare your photoluminescent paint: Open the LuminoKrom® can and mix the paint thoroughly to obtain a smooth texture.

  6. Apply the first coat of LuminoKrom®: Apply a first coat of photoluminescent paint evenly with a roller (short pile) or a 6-8 mm brush.

  7. Leave to dry: Leave to dry for approximately 2 hours before applying the second coat.

  8. Apply the second coat: Apply the second coat of paint to enhance the color and luminous performance.

  9. Final drying time: Leave the painted surface to dry for 24 hours before use. During this time, avoid rubbing, walking on, or any contact with the painted area.

ADVANTAGES OF PHOTOLUMINESCENT WATER-BASED PAINT FOR DESIGN

 

Photoluminescent paint designed for interior decoration combines bright, expressive colors during the day with light emission that is visible in the dark, without the need for electricity. Unlike technical or signage paints, it is used for aesthetic and creative purposes, and is suitable for decorative, artistic, and architectural projects.

In the case of the Pistache LuminoKrom® shade, color becomes a real element of ambiance: fresh and vegetal in daylight, it reveals an immersive dimension once night falls. The emphasis is on the quality of the finish, the uniformity of the surface, and the visual experience, in order to integrate photoluminescent technology into the heart of interior design.

Why choose a paint with very low VOC content?

Choosing paint with very low VOC (volatile organic compound) content helps preserve indoor comfort and air quality. Its formulation limits fumes and reduces odors during application, making it more pleasant to use on a daily basis. It is particularly suitable for occupied spaces such as homes, offices, or public buildings. Choosing a low-VOC paint means opting for a solution that is more user-friendly and suited to contemporary indoor environments.

 

Is this paint applied like conventional paint?

LuminoKrom® Pistache decorative photoluminescent paint is applied in the same way as traditional interior wall paint. Two even coats, applied with a roller or brush, are sufficient to achieve a uniform finish and optimal light performance. Ready to use, it requires no dilution or special equipment, making it easy and convenient to apply for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts.

 

Is the white underlay mandatory?

Applying a white base coat is highly recommended to ensure optimal photoluminescent performance. This clear coat promotes light recharge and provides more intense and longer-lasting luminescence in the dark. Without a white background, the luminous effect would be significantly reduced. However, if the wall is already light-colored, uniform, and in perfect condition, adding an additional undercoat is not essential.

 

How much paint should I buy?

When applied as recommended (2 coats), consumption is approximately 900 g/m². This corresponds to an indicative coverage of:
≈ 5 m² for a 5 kg container
≈ 15 m² for a 15 kg container
These values may vary slightly depending on the nature of the substrate and the application conditions.

 

How do I activate the luminescence after application?

Photoluminescent paint naturally recharges when exposed to ambient light, whether from the sun or indoor lighting. Once the room is plunged into darkness, it gradually releases the accumulated energy in the form of a soft, visible green light, creating a subtle and evolving atmosphere.

 

Does photoluminescent paint work with LED lighting?

Yes. LuminoKrom® Pistachio photoluminescent paint recharges effectively under LED lighting, just as it does under natural light or any other indoor light source. Sufficient exposure to light ensures optimal light output once the room is plunged into darkness.
