Uses:

Astec elastomeric wall coatings maintain their flexibility with time. Substrate movement, for whatever reason, leads to cracks. These cracks are easily bridged during initial application and remain bridged throughout the worst ravages of cold winters and hot summers.

The product ensures crack-free protection against the ingress of water and carbon dioxide. Moreover, its unique Dirtguard chemistry gives a high level of resistance to dirt pick-up.

Correctly prepared, masonry, brick, block, aerated concrete, fibre cement sheets and panel, PVC permanent formwork and all previously painted building facades.
