What is “LOTOS” Maxima latex paint?

LOTOS Maxima latex paint is a modern water-dispersion material for interior use that combines high decorative properties and durability. It has a silky-matt sheen and creates the “lotus effect” - painted surfaces repel water and are easy to clean from dirt. The paint is hypoallergenic, contains no volatile organic compounds (VOC), and is safe for children and people with allergies, making it an ideal choice for children’s rooms, schools, medical institutions, and residential premises.

Key advantages of LOTOS Maxima latex paint

• Excellent hiding power - achieves Class 1 according to DSTU EN 13300.
• High wash resistance - withstands repeated intensive cleaning.
• Vapor permeability - walls “breathe,” preventing moisture accumulation.
• Lotus effect - thanks to wax in the composition, water droplets do not penetrate the coating.
• Easy application - the paint does not splatter or form runs.
• Safe composition - no irritating or allergenic effects.

Surface preparation before painting with LOTOS Maxima

Proper substrate preparation is the key to a long-lasting coating and even color. Surface condition assessment

• Ensure the surface is dry, clean, strong, and non-crumbling.
• Moisture content: mineral substrates - max. 8%, wood - up to 12%.
• Surface and air temperature during painting - from +10°C to +30°C, relative humidity - not more than 80%.

Cleaning

• Remove dust, dirt, soot, grease stains, and efflorescence using a brush, vacuum cleaner, or water washing.
• Remove poorly adhering old coatings mechanically (sanding, scraping, wire brushing).
• Sand glossy surfaces with abrasive for better adhesion.

Mold and fungus removal

• Treat affected areas with special antiseptic agents.
• After treatment, rinse with clean water and dry.

Leveling and filling

• Fill cracks, chips, and other defects with acrylic putty, let dry, and sand to smoothness.
• For wood, use special wood fillers.

Priming

• Treat mineral surfaces (concrete, plaster, drywall) with Aqua Primer Maxima concentrate diluted 1:10 to reduce absorption and strengthen the base.
• Pre-treat wood with Maxima acrylic wood-protective primer.
• Primer drying time before painting: at least 2 hours at +20°C.
