GPCP

General Purpose Cement Plaster

A dry premix cement plaster and render for internal and external use – an ideal substrate for paint, wallpaper or decorative plasters.

Fair faced concrete backgrounds should be thoroughly cleaned to remove any dust and loose particles. The suction of both fair faced concrete and block work should be neutralised; for fair faced concrete, spray a coat of CEMTEC Bonding Rush Coat before applying GPCP.
