Frequently asked questions
Can it be used in the shower?
Yes. The Microresina Xtreme Invisible protective layer has W3 water resistance. Wait 5 days after application.
Can it be applied on tiles?
Yes, with Keragrip Eco Pulep adhesion promoter. The first Wallcrete layer fills the joints.
Is it suitable for waterproofing?
Yes. Directly over Aquastop Nanoflex, Nanodefence Eco. For Aquastop Extreme, Keragrip Eco Pulep pretreatment is required.
Wallcrete or Cementoresina Wall?
Wallcrete is textured—the trowel marks are visible, giving a handcrafted effect. Cementoresina Wall (microcement) is smooth, concrete-like, industrial effect. Choose based on texture.
Wallcrete or Wallcrete Living?
The texture is the same. Wallcrete for wet areas (with protective layer). Wallcrete Living for dry areas, at a lower price.
How durable is it?
With professional application, 10+ years. The protective layer can be renewed without redoing the entire system.
How long does it take to complete?
3–5 days. Then wait 5 days before using water.
How can it be cleaned?
With descaler, disinfectant, household cleaner. Avoid abrasive sponges.
Can I apply it myself?
Technically yes. Wallcrete is a technical material—the texture looks better the more experience the applicator has with this material. A skilled DIYer can do it, but the result depends on the trowel work. If you have no experience, expect a learning curve.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Available in 5 m² batches. The package includes the texture layer, color layer, and protective layer. Primer must be ordered separately depending on the substrate.
