Benefits
  • Can be used as a base coat for levelling, patching and filling masonry, concrete and plaster before painting
  • Can be used as an adhesive for pasting insulation board (polystyrene) or feature segments onto the interior or exterior of buildings
  • Ideal for preparing polystyrene objects for overcoating with a decorative finish to create 3D artistic pieces or furniture
  • Steel reinforcing such as square tubing, steel bars, etc may be incorporated into the polystyrene (such as underneath) to give extra support for larger objects that will be subjected to higher weight loadings
