German term or phrase: Pünktchen auf dem i
Bonsoir,

XXX belastet die alte Bausubstanz durch das äußerst geringe Gewicht nicht, es ist resistent gegen fast alles, verrottet nicht und ist feuerfest. Dass es auch noch wesentlich schneller eingebaut werden kann, ist beim Sanieren und Renovieren natürlich das **Pünktchen auf dem i** – von XXX.

C'est un peu la cerise sur le gâteau, non? Mais comment le dire dans ce contexte?

Merci d'avance!
