Causes of the Problem

**Using Inappropriate Materials**: Choosing paint that is not suitable for your home’s surfaces can be a cause of chalking, especially when using thick paints or formulas with poor-quality ingredients.

**Weather and Environmental Conditions**: Environmental and weather conditions can impact the durability of exterior paint, such as intense sunlight, frequent rain, or high humidity.

**Damage from Use**: Regular use and exposure can affect the paint’s performance in relation to environmental conditions, leading to chalking issues.

Consequences

**”Deterioration of the Walls**: Chalking issues can cause the walls of your home to lose their aesthetic appeal and develop undesirable characteristics. The paint surface can turn into a white, powdery substance that is uneven and may emit odors or be corrosive.

**Reduced Durability of the Walls**: The deterioration of walls due to chalking can compromise the walls’ ability to withstand environmental conditions effectively. This can affect the long-term durability and reliability of the walls.

Solutions

**”Choosing High-Quality Paint**: These issues can be resolved when you are familiar with KEIM paint, which is made from natural rock minerals and mixed with a synthetic glass-based coating. It features excellent penetration properties, ensuring long-lasting color without fading.

**Selecting High-Quality Paint**: Choose high-quality paint that is suitable for outdoor conditions, such as paint with fewer pigments or chemicals that are resistant to environmental conditions, to reduce the likelihood of chalking.

**Proper Surface Preparation**: Preparing the surface correctly before painting can help reduce chalking problems. This includes thoroughly cleaning the surface and using appropriate aids, such as lime or chemicals that enhance paint adhesion.

**Proper Painting Conditions**: Paint in suitable conditions, such as during periods of mild sunlight or when humidity is not too high, to minimize the chance of chalking.

**Maintaining the Paint**: Maintain the paint by diluting it with new paint or using chemicals that prevent peeling, such as sunscreens or additives that protect against sunlight and improve the paint’s durability in various environments.”

Preventing and addressing chalking issues will help ensure that the painted surface remains well-maintained and retains its beauty sustainably over the long term.
