Coccio Pesto of the ArteNova line is a medium-build mineral covering trowelled to give a satin-finished, marbling effect of remarkable smoothness and evenness.
It provides protection to properly prepared, interior conventional plasterwork, pre-cast concrete, gypsum plaster and plasterboard.
Thick and dense, it is worked using a stainless steel trowel in several passes to obtain a uniformly compact surface.
Thanks to its excellent filling power and long-term stability, it neither cracks nor crumbles and preserves the ability of the substrate to breathe.
Coccio Pesto is white but it can be coloured with the ArteColor colorants.
Sample tints are provided on request.
The product can also be custom-tinted with the Le Terre earth pigments, or with the multi-purpose Universal Color range in the alkali-proof, WL-oxide version.
The granular composition of the fine marble flour and the roof-tiles powder coupled with the thoroughly matured slaked lime, produce outstanding decorative effects and depths of colour which can be further enhanced by waxing.
