Plastering Just About Anything

27/5/2005
Skalflex has developed an all-round plaster with unique adhesiveness that can replace a number of specialized products. Many different types of plastering tasks will now become easier, and you will have beautiful finishes and durable results. Skalflex A/S, located in Viborg, Denmark, has developed a new all-round plaster that has all the same positive qualities as conventional cement-based plasters. It is vapour permeable, washable and weatherproof. This new all-round plaster also offers elasticity and flexibility and has unique adhesive qualities.

This makes it easier to work with and allows for completely new application opportunities.

Our new all-round plaster is called Skalcem Reinforcing Plaster. It has so many uses that it practically combines a number of specialized products in one product. Skalcem Reinforcing Plaster can thus be used as repair mortar on almost any type of facade, and due to its superb adhesiveness, you can plaster previously painted surfaces as well.

It can be used for pointing raked joints and puttying doors and windows.
Another important quality in the new plaster is that - contrary to repair mortar - it leaves the surface flat and rustic, so that the repaired area has almost the same surface texture as the surrounding masonry. Repairs become almost invisible when the facade is subsequently painted.

With its extremely high adhesiveness and other qualities, Skalcem Reinforcing Plaster can also be used for upgrading kitchens and/or bathrooms. This new plaster makes surfacing your old and outdated tiles an easy task. The result is a consistent tile space with a flat and rustic surface, which can be painted any colour you desire.

Skalcem Reinforcing Plaster comes in bags of 20 kg each. It is available throughout Denmark from building supply stores and timber merchants.
