Skim Coat

Skim coating, also known as a level-five drywall finish, is a texturing technique that’s used to make a wall smooth or to repair damaged drywall. It’s a quick, long-term solution for repairing minor cracks, filling a joint, or leveling an existing flat surface, to give the wall a plaster-like appearance and in situations when only the smoothest surface will do.

MikaZone™ Methyl Cellulose(MC) products used in the skim coating can be dissolved in cold water to form transparent glue liquid, which has good solubility, water retention, thickening and construction performance, and simultaneously enhancing the adhesion and the workability, to prevent hollowing, cracking, peeling or shedding problems of skim coat.
