Product Overview
Fresco Cementino Polished Concrete
“Faux Concrete” Finish
Fresco Cementino Finish is a lime based product used for light textured interior finishes.
Manufactured with the finest materials available and available in natural grey/white finish for lasting protection to both interior/exterior walls.
This pre-mixed Plaster is formulated for superb adhesion, workability and durability. A wide range of interior/exterior textures can be achieved with Fresco Cementino Polished Concrete; including the natural look of concrete along with textured designer wall finishes created by skillful artisans.
After the wall preparation, apply a priming undercoat of VIEROQUARTZ thinned 1:1 in water in the same color of Fresco Cementino Polished Concrete. The use of VIEROQUARTZ as a base coat gives an initial colored covering and protection and facilitates the application of the coating.
Apply with a stainless steel trowel, roller + brush
1. When VIERO QUARTZ is completely dry, apply a uniform layer of Fresco Cementino Polished Concrete with a small stainless steel trowel all over the surface as base coat.
2. Once the first coat is dry, apply with the same tool, a consistent layer, about 3mm thick of Fresco Cementino Polished Concrete to the surface.
3. Pass over the surface vertically with a brush. For a different effect, you can also roll over the surface with a wool or rubber roller.
4. When plaster is dry to the touch, work across the surface vertically with a stainless steel trowel/blade in a quick sweeping action to smooth the surface. If necessary, polish the surface with a fine grain sandpaper.
5. Once dried, smooth and burnish the wall with a soft stainless steel spatula thus breaking the black spots contained in the grout.
7. Optional: Apply VIEROSIL VEL in a white color (thinned 1:5 with water), by brush all over the surface according to the aesthetic effect required
8. Wait until dry and buff it with a dry, clean cotton cloth
Application:
Fresco Cementino polished Concrete can be applied over a brown coat of gypsum based plaster that has been previously applied for at least 24 hours. First, apply a tight scratch coat, then double back with a finish coat. Nominal thickness of the material should be 1/16" to 1/8".
Drying:
The finish coat should surface dry in 8 hours depending upon climatic conditions. Interior walls should be completely dry within one week. Altering climate conditions can alter drying times.
