GECO CEMENT finish

UNIVERSAL CEMENT-BASED, MINERAL AND FIBER-REINFORCED SKIM COAT

GECO CEMENT finish is a universal cement-based, mineral and fiber-reinforced skim coat (EN 998-1 GP). It gives smooth, compact finishes on almost any building surface: insulation boards in ETICS, cement-based and dehumidifying plasters, aerated and cellular concrete.

It adheres strongly to all common substrates, regularises uneven surfaces and, thanks to its thixotropic consistency, is easy to apply even overhead. Its capillary water absorption is class W0 and it is vapor-permeable; mineral fibers and controlled shrinkage give crack-free, impact-resistant surfaces.

No leveling product is needed before painting or decorating, saving a working stage on site.
