Preparation
-
Substrate requirements
The substrate must be level, clean, dust-free and stable, and free of oil, grease and release agents.
-
Preparations
Remove plasters, paints and coatings to at least 80 cm above the damaged area or as indicated by examination and scrape out damaged joints to a depth of approx. 2 cm.
Primer
Apply an even layer of Kiesol (1:1 with water).
Pre-wet highly absorbant substrates with water.
If necessary, pre-treat salt-contaminated substrates with Sulfatex LQ and/or Salt IH (without Kiesol).
Bonding layer
Mix WP Top [basic] to a slurry consistency and apply as a bonding layer to the slightly damp primer.
Alternatively: apply a bonding layer of WP Sulfatex or SP Prep as a preparatory mortar to the surface once it has been levelled.
Levelling
Level out unevenness, depressions > 5 mm and joints with WP Top [basic].
Apply the plaster to the fresh bonding layer, or after 2-4 days if SP Prep is used as a bonding layer.

Application
-
Apply the product using suitable tools or machine equipment in one or more layers - thickness per layer: min. 10 to max. 30 mm.
For multi-layer application, roughen the previous layer with a plaster comb and apply the following layer after sufficient drying.After application, smooth the surface with a plasterer's float.
Finish the surface once set.
Prepare the surface for subsequent coats after sufficient drying using a grated scraper. Apply subsequent coats after 2-7 days.
-
Application instructions
-
Once it has hardened, mortar must not be made workable again by adding either water or more wet mortar.
Protect wet mortar surfaces against frost, rain and drying out too quickly for at least 4 days.
Hairline/shrinkage cracks are safe and are not cause for complaint as they do not impair the properties of the mortar.
Please contact Remmers Technical Service (phone +49 5432 83900) before applying with machine processing.
