Cemher Copper Micrometal + Aquatix

|

Rated 4.5/5 by hundreds of happy customers

Price range: £35.00 through £300.00 (incl. VAT)

Options

Micrometal, fine spherical copper powder is mixed with Aquatix to create a liquid metal that can be applied by trowel to create seamless metallic surfaces. Once dry, the metal can be polished to create a reflective, metallic surface.

  • Liquid metal applied by trowel for seamless metallic surfaces
  • Polish to create a reflective, metallic surface
  • Apply seamlessly by trowel

Add the MicroMetal to a mixing bucket and add a small amount of Aquatix, mix thoroughly, then continue to add small amounts of Aquatix until it reaches a workable consistency.

Let the mixture rest for a few minutes before applying. Keep a lid on it between coats.

Using a Microcement Trowel, work your way out from one corner creating a random edge pattern. Keep trowel movements small and random, avoid long sweeping arches – as these will show through to your final finish.

Use the grain in the liquid metal as your level – if you apply it thicker than the size of the grain, the finish won’t be as strong and will require a lot more sanding. Run the trowel back over each section that you have put down to smooth it out and remove excess product.

Run your finger or a corner trowel along internal corners to push the microcement into the corner and then gently trowel away the excess product.

Leave to dry, minimum 24 hours.

Polishing the Metal

Work over the whole area with a 400 grit sanding disc on an orbital sander, sand all areas evenly so that you achieve a uniform depth across the area.

The 400 grit will expose the metal, where as subsequent grits will polish the exposed metals. Before moving to the next grit ensure you are happy with the level of cut in your work.

Continue to work up the grits, increasing the speed as you go. The following table shows the relative speed for each of the grits.

400 low speed
500/800/1000 medium speed
3000 high speed

I’ve been using relentless microcement for quite a few years now, great product range. They have pretty much everything you need for your projects whether it be inside, outside, worktops, bathrooms, and flooring. Richie and sally are easy to talk to and they know everything you need to know about their products. 5 stars everytime

We’re over the moon

Amazing product and service as always from Relentless. Just finished my living room floor and walls and we’re over the moon with the finish. Thanks Relentless 👍

There’s a product for every need!

I’ve done quite a few jobs now over the past four years and can’t fault it. There’s a product for every need! It’s easy to apply once you get the hang of it and anything that you’re not sure about relentless are there to advise you. The only problem you’ll have is deciding which colour to choose !

Products are great

Products are great and we have purchased them several times, but the highlight is costumer servise. It’s rare to have prompt and professional costumer service – this is the main reason why we are choosing this company. We had issues once with the delivery and Sally handled it in the best way possible. Overall delivery is actually super quick.
