Arcus Marblecoat
Arcus Marblecoat
Arcus Marblecoat is a specialized interior/exterior coating consisting of a proprietary mix of quarried, crushed marble ideal for applications calling for the polished look of natural stone. The creamy mix is easy to work with, and the marble effects can be achieved with either a single coat – or with multiple coats to produce a deeper texture on either vertical or horizontal surfaces. It provides the sheen of natural marble for today’s contemporary designs, and is often used for accent elements such as columns, ornamental panels, moldings and floors.
Arcus Marblecoat is a cement-based, field-applied product, and can be used over any stable substrate that it bonds to including concrete, masonry, stucco, EIFS basecoat, drywall and cement board. It is applied smooth or textured with a trowel, then finished with light sanding or buffing and sealed when fully dry. Arcus Marblecoat has the timeless beauty and natural appeal of quarried stone, and its white natural state makes for brighter, more arresting colors. Made in USA, the product is an attractive and cost-effective alternative to high-grade paint or thin-stone veneers.
In addition to its attractive appearance, Arcus Marblecoat is valued for its dependable performance across changing climate conditions, making it suitable for both interior and exterior projects. Because the material contains natural marble and mineral components, it offers excellent surface hardness once cured, allowing it to withstand day-to-day use in residential and commercial environments. The finish can be lightly polished to enhance color and depth, or left in a more natural state to highlight its stone-like texture.
When selecting Arcus Marblecoat, designers and builders appreciate its flexibility. The product can be used to refresh aging surfaces or incorporated into new construction for a consistent, high-quality finish. Unlike heavier stone panels or masonry, this coating keeps material weight to a minimum, simplifying installation without sacrificing visual character. It is particularly effective on entry walls, alcoves, accent façades, or anywhere a natural stone impression is desired without the added cost or structural requirements of stone veneer.
Because the base material is mineral-based, Arcus Marblecoat is compatible with both modern and traditional color palettes. Its neutral tone makes it easy to tint or glaze, giving users a broad range of customization options. Many installers choose warm, earthy tones to emulate classic limestone, while others opt for more contemporary shades to complement modern architecture.
Care and maintenance are straightforward. Routine dusting or gentle washing helps preserve the appearance of the surface, and sealers may be used to improve moisture resistance if needed. If an area becomes damaged, spot repairs can often be completed with minimal blending, maintaining visual continuity. These qualities make Arcus Marblecoat a practical finish for long-term use in homes, hospitality settings, retail storefronts, and exterior property enhancements.
With its combination of beauty, adaptability, and ease of application, Arcus Marblecoat remains a strong choice for projects seeking a refined stone look in a versatile and cost-effective format.
