Microcement Buyer’s Guide

Practical advice on choosing a finish, ordering samples, planning preparation and buying the materials for your project.

Before you order: confirm your substrate, intended use and complete system. This guide is a starting point—not installation approval. Follow current product instructions and project-specific technical advice.

Ask about your project

What to consider before you buy

Is microcement right for your project?

Start with the surface you want to finish, its existing substrate and how the space will be used. Microcement and polished concrete involve different preparation and installation processes—compare more than their appearance.

Choose your colour and texture

Order physical samples and view them beside your joinery, tiles and furnishings in the room’s lighting. Hand-applied finishes vary naturally. Looking for a particular colour? Ask us about colour matching.

Order samples

Select a compatible system

Primer, reinforcement, decorative finish and sealer depend on the substrate and exposure. There is no universal sequence for every project. Confirm compatible materials against current product documents before ordering.

Technical guides and data sheets

Plan bathrooms carefully

A decorative finish does not replace a compliant waterproofing system. Coordinate the membrane, falls, drainage, joints, penetrations and ventilation with the responsible trades before selecting your finish.

Bathroom planning

Work out quantities and delivery

Measure the areas to be finished, confirm the proposed system and check live product availability. Include primers, reinforcement, toner and protection where required. Check freight costs and delivery arrangements before placing your order.

Arrange installation or training

Decide who will prepare the surface and apply the finish. If you are building your application skills, compare the course scope and practical training with what your project requires. Training does not replace project-specific technical advice.

Ordering as a trade customer?

Open and verify your account, assess the project, review samples, confirm the complete system and obtain freight pricing. Order against the agreed scope and check preparation responsibilities with the other trades.
