Note on quantities. Coverage per bag is not stated on the datasheet held on file and varies with finish, thickness and substrate texture. Confirm the current rate with us before ordering.
Before you specify it
- Existing concrete must be 28-day cured, sound and structurally suitable before resurfacing.
- Use a gauge to check thickness — final thickness must not exceed 3 mm.
- Protection barriers against wind and sun are required during application.
- A minimum of three coats is required for the textured spray finish.
- RenoCrete beautifies concrete; it does not repair structural defects. Address cracking and movement first.
