Oxicem® Bronze 5L

Oxicem® Bronce 5 L is a water-based oxidizing colorant reactive formulated to impart a patina-like finish or rust effect on cementitious surfaces such as microcement, polished concrete, or stamped concrete. By generating stable mineral nanocrystals, it produces warm, aged tones that enhance the original texture without completely covering it. Compatible with decorative concrete and microcement systems, it is ideal for use in interior and exterior areas with a vintage or industrial style. This product can be easily applied with a brush, roller, trowel, or spray gun, offering unique versatility.

Main features

• Aqueous solution reactive that produces a semi-transparent color.
• Production of light-resistant mineral nanocrystals.
• Irregular color that respects the texture of the substrate.
• Ready to use, no prior dilution required.
• Can be applied by brush, roller, trowel, sponge, or spray gun.
• High adhesion on cementitious substrates; for less absorbent surfaces, it is recommended to prime with Primacem Plus.
• Provides decorative vintage, rustic, or industrial finishes.

How to use

1. Ensure that the substrate (microcement, concrete, etc.) is clean, dry, and free of varnishes or previous paints.
2. Protect adjacent non-groutable elements (metals, glass, wood).
3. Apply Oxicem® Bronce with a brush, roller, soft trowel, sponge, or spray gun, in an even coat.
4. If a greater color intensity is desired, apply a second coat 8 to 12 hours after the first.
5. After applying the last coat, rinse the surface with water and neutralize with baking soda or ammonia until any possible residue is removed.
6. It is advisable to then protect with a varnish from the Topsealer® WT range to improve water and dirt resistance.

Performance

Approximately 10 m²/L when applying one coat, although this may be affected by the porosity of the substrate and the application technique.
