ZEMCOAT Super Fine is a specially formulated skimcoat for super fine plastering applications. It perfectly smoothens minor unevenness (0.5 – 2mm), pinholes and other minor imperfections on concrete and plastered surfaces (wall, column, beam, ceiling, etc.).
- Superior bonding
- Ultra thin application to perfectly smoothen minor unevenness of concrete & plastered surfaces
- Prevents hairline cracks & pinholes
- High initial adhesiveness and non-sag properties make it ideal for overhead application
- Economical due to reduced construction & labor costs
- Compatible with masonry paint, concrete sealer, etc.
- Direct application on indoor & outdoor concrete surfaces
- Eco-friendly (low Volatile Organic Compound levels)
SURFACE PREPARATION
Concrete surface must be cured, structurally stable, clean & free of paint and contaminants such as dirt, dust, loose material, oils, chemicals, etc.
Caution:For outdoors & during hot weather conditions (noon time or summer), wet substrate well to ensure proper bonding.

2. Application
While the surface is still damp, apply Zemcoat Super Fine to desired application thickness (0.5 – 2mm) using a steel trowel. Zemcoat Super Fine has set when the finish looks matte. To further smoothen minor surface unevenness before painting, sprinkle a small amount of water before the surface is about to set, then smoothen to desired finish using a rubber float. (Setting Time: 30 minutes) Dampen concrete surface before Zemcoat application.
