Technical characteristics of polished concrete

High-strength mineral mortar is a decorative coating for interiors, based on cemented resin for floors and walls, of the "polished concrete" type. Its colour is obtained by the addition of iron oxide-based pigments and synthetic pigments. Its particularity is that it can be applied in thin layers of 1 to 3 mm.

Nature of compatible media

Cement or anhydrite screeds, old tiles, concretes and derivatives that are perfectly stable and rigid;
Plasterboard, resin, wood, metal etc.

The substrates must be perfectly healthy and dry, free of dirt.

---

Composition

Ready-to-use coloured mortars, composed of aggregates, special cements reinforced with synthetic resins.
