Vertical Overlays & Concrete Faux Finishes
Architectural Enhancements’ vertical overlays are polymer modified cementicious blends designed to add texture and style in lightweight blends. They are designed to adhere exceptionally well to most solid vertical surfaces.
Architectural Enhancements’ special line of premium vertical overlays and concrete faux finish products are lighter weight, take textures beautifully, carve cleanly, and are known for their workability and ease-of-use. These premium vertical overlays are used by leading contractors for creating durable and decorative finishes including marble, stone, brick, tile and even leather - making them perfect for pillars, fireplace surrounds, restaurant and storefront entrances, exterior retaining walls, as well as interior stone, brick, tile, or slate finish walls.
- Tru Finish is an extremely thin and lightweight cementicious overlay that is applied as a base/bonding coat for other overlays. It can also be used as a thinly applied spray down finish. It is available in Gray or White.
- Luster/Micro is another thin cementicious overlay with an ultra-smooth surface that features varied shadowing to create the look of marble and tile.
- Vertex is an award-winning vertical overlay that is lightweight and can be built up to 4”. Vertex takes textures famously and is used to create authentic textures at a fraction of the cost. It is available in Gray or White.
- Tru Sculpt is a product created to meet recent demand. It is a lightweight and carvable cementicious overly that can also be built up to 4” for those deeply dimensional projects.
- Tamarillo is a faux finish designed to give the look of antique textures and colors to vertical surfaces.
- Mediterranean Finish is a thinly applied cementicious faux finish that can be applied as a spray down or trowel down finish to provide that rich look of European style finishes.
