Q: Can I use SatinCrete in my shower?
A: Yes, however you have to seal your fully cured SatinCrete wall with Cemcrete's SiliconSeal to make it completely waterproof.
Q: Can I apply SatinCrete over tiles?
A: No, the weight of the plaster coating is too heavy and could delaminate the tiles. We would recommend rather removing the tiles before applying SatinCrete.
Q: Can I apply SatinCrete on a floor?
A: No, however Cemcrete offers a range of floor products that can be used in conjunction with SatinCrete.
Q: Can I apply SatinCrete to a previously painted wall?
A: Yes, ensure there is no loose defective paint and that any tightly bonded paint is feathered even with the surface by sanding. The entire painted surface should be sanded with a 60 grit sandpaper to provide a mechanical key prior to priming.
Q: Can I patch a SatinCrete wall?
A: We recommend rather recoating an entire area as patching will lead to colour variances on the wall.
Q: Can my plasterer do the application?
A: If your plasterer has experience working with Cemcrete products and you feel confident in using them to do the application, then yes. Your plasterer can also attend our demo days hosted at our Academy in Johannesburg. Please note attending these demo days does not mean your plasterer will be an experienced Cemcrete contractor.
