Microcement kit for bathroom tiled walls HYDROFEST - 10m²

Application and benefits

HYDROFEST microcement is ideal for finishing bathroom and kitchen walls, including wet areas such as showers or splash-prone spots. It can be applied directly over existing tiles.

Suitable as a finish for:

• Bathroom walls
• Kitchen walls
• Walls in wet areas in restaurants and service premises
• Walls with existing tiles
• Kitchen splashback above the countertop

Benefits of HydroFest microcement:

• Water resistance – the HYDROFEST system provides durable protection against moisture, so it can be used in wet areas
• Seamless finish – no joints means not only a clean look, but also easier cleaning and fewer places where mold can develop
• Delicate, subtle finish – creates an elegant, modern wall texture
• Time-saving – ready to use, factory-colored microcement, which does not require on-site pigmentation
• Excellent adhesion – can be used on various surfaces, such as concrete or ceramic tiles
• Easy maintenance – clean with water and neutral pH products
• Optional antibacterial coating – when Nano Silver Plus is added to the lacquer layers, antibacterial properties can be achieved, ideal for hygienic bathrooms

Short application guide

Applying HydroFest microcement on tiled walls takes 4 steps:

1. Substrate preparation
   remove silicone, dull the tiles, fill the joints and prime the surface with Fest Grunt.
2. Substrate reinforcement
   apply FEST KONTAKT bonding bridge and embed fiberglass mesh (first layer with mesh, second without mesh).
3. Microcement application

4. Impregnation
   finish the surface by applying two coats of PU Fest 2K Carbon varnish.

What’s included in the kit?

A complete kit for finishing 10 m² of wall surface with waterproof HydroFest microcement.

• Fest Grunt (1 kg) – a priming product that evens out substrate absorbency and improves adhesion of subsequent layers. One coat is sufficient.

• HYDROFEST microcement (10 kg) – ready to use, water-resistant, factory-colored microcement. Sufficient for two coats.

• sealer PU FEST 2K CARBON (1 kg component A + 0.08 kg component B) – a two-component protective sealer with very high hardness, resistant to abrasion and dirt. One coat is sufficient; for maximum durability, two coats are recommended. Choose the option with the additional varnish to ensure full surface protection. [sealer included in the kit is designed to protect walls and other vertical surfaces exposed to occasional contact with water. It is not recommended for use on horizontal surfaces where water may stand for extended periods (e.g. shower floors, shower shelves, shower seats and countertops where water may collect).]

• FEST KONTAKT (15 kg) + fiberglass mesh (10 m²). FEST KONTAKT is a bonding bridge in which fiberglass mesh can be embedded to strengthen the surface and protect it against cracks. The product is sufficient for two coats.

Colour selection

microcement HydroFest is factory-colored and does not require the addition of pigments during use. The colorants are mixed during production, which ensures a uniform shade and a consistent, aesthetic finish. Simply choose the right colour from our standard colour chart.

You can also order a colour outside the standard palette. We offer microcement HYDROFEST in shades from the RAL palette (over 200 colours) and the NCS palette (almost 2000 colours), giving you full flexibility in designing and personalizing your interior.
