Argacem Ultrafine creates perfectly smooth surfaces and maintain the breathability of the wall/ceiling. A perfect smooth walls with no roughness. Despite the extreme fineness of the grain size, which ensures the material has a smooth and almost marble appearance. The breathability maintains its standard values.

Features
Argacem Ultrafine is the extra-fine finishing smoothing compound based on hydrated lime, crystalline micro sands, marble powders and specific additives. It has high workability in the application and trowelling phase which guarantees a pleasant aesthetic appearance. Argacem Ultrafine qualifies for LEED points, which means it can be used in projects with strict environmental requirements. Any experienced lime plasterer can install it without special training.
Where to use it
Argacem Ultrafine is suitable for interior walls and ceilings only. It can be applied on top of fully dry Diasen Argacem HP or Argatherm with no further preparation required. It may also be used over new or existing lime and cement-based plasters that have a robust surface free of dust, debris and materials that might affect the adhesion like paint, silicone, grease and salt deposits. It is suitable for new builds and retrofits, including Heritage and Listed buildings.
Do not apply Argacem Ultrafine over gypsum plaster, metal, plastic surfaces or any surfaces painted with a waterproofing agent.
