Frequently Asked Questions:
1. What is the strength and resistance of microcement?
1. What is the strength and resistance of microcement? Although microcement is not a thick coating, the materials used in it are very resistant and hard.
2. For what surfaces can microcement be used?
Microcement mostly has the ability to cover all surfaces including cement, stone, marble, tile, plaster, etc. This coating is also suitable for horizontal and vertical, internal and external surfaces. ◦ Never apply microcement on natural wood. ◦ The desired surface must be solid and stable. ◦ The surface must be free of dust and dry.
3. Can microcement be used for surfaces that have floor heating?
Yes, just before installing the microcement, a predetermined heating process must be performed.
4. Is microcement waterproof?
Microcement itself is not impermeable. It is mandatory to use the last layer, which is a waterproof layer, to perform microcement. Microcement may be used in sinks, bathtubs or wet environments. This is possible if it covers the last layer of microcement.
5. Is microcement slippery?
No, depending on the type of microcement and its texture, a non-slip surface can be achieved.
6. What is the difference between microcement and exposed concrete?
Although their appearance may be the same, microcement has more advantages: ◦ Quick and easy installation ◦ No need for a car or heavy equipment for installation ◦ Less work, less cost, less time ◦ Can be used for all levels ◦ Seamless, so you won't see any cracks during the drying process. ◦ Can be installed on both vertical and horizontal surfaces
7. How long does it take to install this work?
Installation of microcement usually takes between 3 and 5 days. It takes 1 week to use and walk on these surfaces.
8. Is it necessary to straighten (shorten) the bottom of the doors?
No, it is not necessary to do this, microcement is a very thin coating and adds 1 to 3 mm to the diameter of the surface, if the distance of the door from the ground is usually 5 mm.
9. What is the best way to clean microcement?
For long-lasting microcement, we suggest using water and natural soap.
