For the bathroom, choose a complete waterproof system including a base layer, finishing render, gel, and lacquer.

Detailed answer

For the bathroom or shower, always choose a complete system, not just the finishing render alone. The base consists of a prepared substrate, waterproofing in wet zones, a base coat, finishing microcement, Gela Cryl and a quality lacquer. For beginners, Aqua Nature is the safest option because it is easier to apply and more forgiving than more delicate systems. We recommend the Aqua Nature set for bathrooms. This set is recommended for beginners due to its simpler application. More advanced users can use the Aqua Microconcrete finishing render.

Common mistakes

  • underestimating waterproofing and joint details
  • poorly resolved slope or drainage
  • insufficient lacquering of high-traffic areas
