Fillite is a glass hard, inert, hollow silicate sphere.
Primarily used to reduce the weight of resins, textures & moulding materials; the spherical nature of the material ensures the lowest quantity of binder is needed to wet out the material.
When mixed with Flintex or Idenden it will form a good texture for brick or york stone.
The mix will be slightly less flexible but slightly with a matt finish.
