EXTERIOR GREY SKIM/FILLER
GREY EXTERIOR SKIM/FILLER is a sandable grey powdered filler based on a blend of grey cement blended with recycled wastes and other mineral fillers. When dealing with new work contracts the smooth white filler often causes difficulties to fully obliterate, resulting in these areas requiring one or two additional coats usually ‘spot primed”. GREY EXTERIOR SKIM/FILLER is specifically formulated to closer match to the plaster surface, thereby reducing the need for spot prime. It is suitable for both interior and exterior use. This product can also be used when an OFF-SHUTTER look is required. Take note of expiry date.
