Cemher Microne must be installed by a Cemher Certified Applicator in accordance with the Cemher Microne Technical Data Sheet.
Substrate must be clean, dry, stable, and free from contaminants, with moisture content below 5% and a minimum compressive strength of 25N/mm².
Minimum application temperature 10°C.
Substrates include plasterboard (Level 4 finish required), Hardies, fibre cement board, render, painted surfaces, MDF, concrete, tiles (Microdur Hybrid system), and celcrete.
In wet areas, a compliant waterproofing membrane must be applied prior to microcement and must meet NZ standards. Cemher is compatible with Ardex WPM002 system.
System components: Primer 100, Microne Base (two base coats), Microne Medium/Fine (two top coats), and Aquamax Pro sealer (walls) or Aquapur70 sealer (floors).
Sand between all coats using white/undyed sandpaper.
Allow minimum 7 days cure before use, water exposure, or foot traffic. Full hardness achieved at 30 days.
Do not wet or clean the surface for 7 days post-installation.
Avoid cleaning products for the first 14 days. Clean routinely with water and a pH-neutral product using a damp cloth. A
void acid-based, ammonia, chlorine, bleach, or abrasive cleaners. Do not allow water, food, or chemicals to sit on the surface for more than one hour.
Do not place hot objects directly on microcement - use heat-resistant mats. Lift rather than drag furniture; use protective pads under furniture legs. Prevent exposure to grit and abrasive particles.
The protective sealer is subject to normal wear and requires periodic reapplication - estimated every 2–4 years depending on use. Resealing must be carried out by a Cemher Certified Applicator using only Cemher-branded sealers; use of other products will void the warranty.
Regularly inspect the surface to assess sealer condition.
Compliance with these requirements is necessary to maintain the Cemher 10-year manufacturer's warranty.
