When visible blemishes occur in concrete, it is good to know how they can be corrected. Learn in this article how you can turn a flawed vision into a truly fair-faced surface with MC concrete cosmetics and retouching solutions.

The visual appearance of a concrete surface is decisively influenced by technological and processing aspects. In addition, there are external factors such as the mix of outside temperature, air humidity, sun exposure etc. as well as the curing treatment applied and any additional measures taken to protect the finished surfaces.

But if things do not run smoothly – which is often the case in the presence of so many eventualities – don’t despair. Because MC’s fillers Emcefix and Nafuquick together with our Repacryl concrete retouch and glaze system will iron out even the most unsightly defects. Concrete surfaces with flaws such as spalling, chipped edges, gravel pockets, pores, blowholes, colour differences or soiling can be transformed into impressive fair-faced exteriors.

The Nafuquick range comprises fine to medium-fine universal fillers suitable for simple optical requirements. If the surface is to be absolutely immaculate, we recommend our Emcefix system. It consists of bonding agents, coarse and fine fillers and super-fine fillers for an extremely high-grade finish.

To maintain this high-quality exposed concrete appearance long-term, the use of a concrete glaze is essential. And here you can rely on Repacryl as a retouching and glazing system that produces the best results. This allows you to treat filled and non-filled surfaces in such a way that a homogeneous, clean and high-quality – yet still natural-looking – fair-faced concrete appearance is created for the onlooker. But be aware: Application requires not only craftsmanship but often also creativity.
