Additional information

Composition

Product based on high resistance cement, selected aggregates, and other additives

Features and applications

  • To be applied directly on brickworks.
  • Masonry works.
  • Plaster and stucco works

Substrates

  • Conventional cement and brickwork based substrates.
  • Substrates must be resistant, stable, sound and clean, free of dust, demolding agents, organic products, etc.
  • In case of hot or windy weather conditions or when applying over absorbent substrates, it is advisable to wet the substrate and wait till the thin layer of water disappears.
  • Do not apply on gypsum or on paint.

Instructions for use

  • Add water and mix by hand or mechanically until it takes on an even and workable consistency.
  • For plaster works, spread the mortar on the substrate with a trowel and let rest enough time before floating.

Cautions and recommendations

  • Do not apply below 5ºC nor above 30ºC.
  • Do not apply when there is a risk of frost, rain, strong wind or direct sunlight.
  • For a thickness of over 1,5 cm, it is advisable to apply the product in two coats.
  • In extreme weather conditions (strong winds or high temperatures) it is necessary to water the product with light sprinklers the day after applying it.
  • An excess of water may increase shrinkage and reduce mechanical resistance.
  • The cladding must be interrupted at the level of the structural joints.
  • It is not advisable to apply on horizontal or sloped surfaces.
  • Carry out a good joint design, foreseeing expansion joints, structural ones, as well as those others that could be necessary.
  • Protect the starting point of the plaster from capillary humidity placing a plinth at the base of the wall Special areas where the coating suffers tensions derived from the structure or due to the meeting of materials of a dfferent nature on the substrate.
  • A suitable treatment for these areas consists of incorporating a reinforcing mesh embedded in the mortar, to reinforce it and prevent it from cracking.

CURING

  • Between 5 and 30 °C, curing not required.
  • Between 30 and 35 °C, wetting the following day, 2 times per day.
  • Between 35 and 45 °C, wetting the following 72 hours, 2 times per day.
