Africote's Wall & Ceiling Skim is a single component, trowel on smoothing system, designed to transform eg. unfinished. rough plaster walls and/or porous new ceiling board into a smooth, prepared surface, suitable for the cosmetic coating to follow. In contrast to traditional Gypsum based products, Wall & Ceiling Skim is based on white portland cement, enabling it to be applied directly onto any masonry surface, dry wall partitioning material, and/or raw ceiling board, whether used in an interior and/or exterior environment. The ease of application of Wall & Skim Coating, combined with the excellent workability features, results in high quality trowelled surface finishes being achieved, good enough to allow final coatsa to be applied, without the need for undercoats or primers. Alternatively, a colour tinted ("all in one") version of Wall & Ceiling Skim can be applied for a more rustic marble appearance in which case the need for a top coat colour is negated. Further restrictions, synonymous with gypsum based products such as damp delamination and moisture degeneration is eliminated when using Wall & Ceiling Skim as it is cement based. This enables the product to be used in bathrooms, laundries and on any exterior exposed wall surface. Wall and Ceiling Skim is available in white as a standard cost effective colour and 7 other pigmented pastel shades.
