The Allover base is a product developed to serve as an anchoring primer and a textured basecoat at the same time. Allover Base contains fibrous additives that give this basecoat, a higher than average resistant to cracking, making it more flexible that a standard, powder-based, basecoat. It also means that it can be applied without the need for a mesh to provide additional rigidity. We would still recommend however, that if a surface has high risk of movement, the mesh is still used, as it will further strengthen the application. Thanks to its great bonding, Allover Base does not need a primer before being applied (although one can be used on particularly non porous, or slippery surfaces).

Finally, another aspect that sets Allover Base apart from being a standard basecoat, is that due to its great texture, as well as colourability, it can be used as its own finish! It is possible to do a wall application of Allover, that includes simply, 2 coats of Allover Base, followed by 2 coats of Allover Top.

Please note that the each of the Allover Products, has been designed to be used as part of the Allover System. Therefore, significant savings are to be made from purchasing the complete kit, over individual items. We strongly encourage you to look at the available kits HERE.
