Frequently Asked Questions

Mono can be applied on ceilings and walls of a dry area. This includes foyers, bedrooms, studios, living rooms etc… Mono can be also used of furniture and internal doors that have been suitably prepared for Mono system application.  It is not recommended on horizontal surfaces like benchtops and floors as it does not have the recommended mechanical resistance, and should never be used in wet areas such as splashbacks, showers alcoves and baths. This product is not UV resistant therefore it cannot be used outdoors.

Unlike Mono, Microcement is a higher performing system that can be applied on ceilings, walls and floors of wet areas. This includes bathrooms, powder rooms, bench-tops, ensuites and external areas. It is not recommended in swimming pool, baths, splash-backs, exterior horizontal surfaces, or on bench’s near cook tops or where ever prolonged water stagnation is present.

Mono and Microcement have been matched to each other with a selection of 20 colours.

Although the systems have the same colours, the final finish may appear different. We recommend the use of only one Microcement system throughout the same project when walls and floors in the same room are to be coated to obtain a seamless finish.

The following stores are Dulux Microcement stockists which showcase all colours within this specialty finish range:
