Which Product to Use For Your Smooth Finish

Smooth finishes are a stylish feature in any space. ROCKCOTE has a range of products that will achieve a smooth look finish, which trained renderers can apply. These products can achieve concrete look finishes, add a bit of glamour to what would have been a plain wall, or add spectacular colour wherever they are used.

Which product will be most suitable depends on the substrate. Some substrates are more flexible than others and thus need systems that will allow for some movement without cracking.

The table below outlines ROCKCOTE finish products that are suitable for use over a range of substrates. Refer to the ROCKCOTE Systems Guide, or contact ROCKCOTE for more information about the full system for use over each substrate.
