Application

Make sure that the substrate is completely hardened, resistant and free of loose parts that come off. In the presence of degraded existing plaster, smooth the surface until a substrate with sufficient strength. Cleaning and saturation of the substrate by low pressure washing. Remove any efflorescence and salts by washing or mechanical systems such as brushing, sandblasting or water sandblasting. On particularly irregular or poorly absorbent substrates, apply a coat of rough coat before applying the structural mortar. The substrate temperature must be between + 5°C and + 30°C. Do not apply mortars on frozen substrates. After carefully preparation of the substrate, before applying the first layer of lime-based structural mortar, wet with water at low pressure until saturated; the non-saturation could cause the non-adhesion and cracking of the mortar. Apply by trowel or spatula in stainless steel or with a plastering machine a first layer of structural mortar for a thickness of about 1.5 cm, leaving the surface sufficiently rough to allow adhesion of the next layer. Place the sizeable alkaline fiberglass mesh from Kimitech WALLMESH MR-HD or Kimitech WALLMESH HR-HD range on the still fresh mortar. Drill with a suitable diameter of at least 4 per m2. Insert Kimitech PLUG VR-HD connector and fill the hole with Kimitech EPOXY CTR epoxy resin. Apply a second layer of mortar to a thickness of about 1.5 cm.
