Description
MicroConcrete Applications
- Easily applicable on most surfaces and materials including marble, mosaic and ceramic
- Looks like polished concrete without the thickness
- Suitable for any location in commercial or domestic properties where there will be high traffic
- Designed primarily to be used on floors, but suitable for walls too
Benefits
- Easy to apply over other surfaces as ceramic, porcelain, marble, mosaics, tiles, concrete, mortar and plaster
- A great substitute for polished concrete
- Low thickness, low maintenance and resistant to UV rays
- Great resistance to attrition due to abrasion and compression – perfect for high traffic areas
- Suitable for under-floor heating
- Provides a seamless finish (no need for expansion gaps)
- Allows for customisable designs: e.g. corporate logos
- Easily applied to kitchens, furniture, bathrooms and any wall in a property.
- Easy to customise without the need for construction work
- A higher slip resistance than MicroCement

TECHNICAL DATA
Its hardening process is progressive; therefore, it will acquire its maximum hardness after 28 to 30 days from its installation completion.

THICKNESS
– Between 2 – 4 mm
SUBBASE
– It should be secure and free of moisture
– There can be no rising or negative humidity
– There should be no cracks
INSTALLATION SUBSTRATE
Microconcrete can be placed on top of the following types of supports, among others:
– Smoothed concrete, concrete and cement: they must not break or present cracks.
– Tiles, ceramics and mosaics: they must be firmly pasted to the concrete/substrate. There should be no unevenness greater than two millimetres between tiles.
– Cement or lime plasters: they must not chip, they must not have cracks and should have a fine texture.
– Plasters and plasterboard: may need a primer. If they are painted, the paint must be firmly attached to the plaster, otherwise it must be sanded before proceeding.
– Wood: it can be placed on wooden boards (MDF types), with previous treatment of the joints between plates. It cannot be applied on parquet or natural wood pieces.
STORAGE
– Store in a dry, cool place in original closed containers
SHELF LIFE
– 1 year for liquid parts / 2 years for powders / 1 year for the Sealer and 6 months for its Hardener
Cleaning & Maintenance
- Clean with water and neutral PH detergent
- Do not use abrasive or corrosive products to clean stains
- Prolonged contact with corrosive or alkaline liquids can cause permanent damage
- Clean up standing water or spills before they dry
- Thoroughly clean before sealing or waxing
- Apply wax periodically (measure depending on use)
- Use rubber protection for furniture and chair
- For outdoor apply sealant periodically depending on usage
- Remove wax and apply new wax (annually according to the aspect)
- Do not apply wax on bathroom or outdoor floors
- For countertops and furniture use silicone maintainers
