Buon Fresco Painting is the unique painting method where only the vehicle (water) is needed to prepare the paint because the surface itself (wet plaster) acts as a binder via the process of carbonation (re-absorption of CO2).
Ca(OH)2 + CO2 → CaCO3 + H2O
During this process as Calcium Hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) absorbs Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from the air, Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) forms around pigment particles applied/placed onto the surface of the freshly laid lime (calcium hydroxide) plaster.
