Frequently Asked Questions
Product Information
Yes, our microcement is highly durable and suitable for exterior walls. It’s resistant to weather conditions, ensuring a seamless and long-lasting finish outdoors.
Microcement is thinner and more versatile than polished concrete. It can be applied directly over existing surfaces without adding much thickness, making it easier to work with. Plus, it typically offers a more uniform, seamless finish and comes in a wide range of color options.
No, you don’t need special products. A mild, pH-neutral cleaner and a soft cloth or mop are usually all it takes. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive tools to maintain the smooth finish.
The natural color variance you’re noticing in your microcement is intentional and a key part of its unique aesthetic. Microcement is designed to showcase subtle variations in color, which adds depth and character to any surface, making each installation truly one-of-a-kind. This variability is part of what makes microcement so appealing for both residential and commercial spaces.
Terraesta Microcement is applied over plaster, provided the surface is smooth and properly prepared. It eliminates the need for a skim/acian coat and a paint finish, making it a cost-effective choice for new builds.
Yes. For commercial environments, including areas like bar counters that may face staining from drinks or food, we recommend applying a heavy-duty, stain-resistant coating over the Microcement. This top layer will improve durability, resist spills, and maintain an attractive, long-lasting finish.
No, expansion joints are not necessary for microcement itself. As long as the substrate beneath the microcement is properly laid and designed to accommodate expansion, the microcement will perform seamlessly. Microcement is inherently flexible and can adapt to slight movements in the substrate, ensuring a durable and crack-free finish without the need for additional expansion joints.
