How to use
Surface preparation
Substrate must be clean and free from oil, grease, dust and laitance.
Priming
Areas to be plastered should be socked with clean water before applying the plaster. In order to minimize the appearance of efflorescence and to enhance the bond strength between KingPlast CE75 and smooth surfaces such as fairfaced concrete, it is recommended to use a polymer modified resin based primer such as KingPlast Contact Primer. KingPlast CE75 should be applied after 24 hours after KingPlast Contact Primer dries.
Mixing
To ensure proper mixing, a mechanically powered mixer or drill fitted with suitable paddle should be used. 5.0 – 5.5 litres of clean water should be added to a clean container. The powder is then added slowly to the water while mixing continuously with low speed mixer/drill (400 - 600 rpm). Mixing time should be continued for 3 minutes until uniform consistency is obtained.
Application
KingPlast CE75 should be applied by steel trowel or hopper spray gun. Apply the mixed KingPlast CE75 to the prepared substrate, up to 3 mm thickness. It should be applied with the minimum of working and be allowed to partly set before finally trowelling to a smooth finish.
If a very smooth finish is required, a small amount of water may be flicked on to the surface to the KingPlast CE75 with a paint brush prior to final trowelling.
After the initial setting time -usually 2 to 3 hours at normal conditions- it is recommended to apply a coat of KingKure 100A over the finished surface.
Beside its efficiency as a curing compound, KingKure 100A will work as sealer and protective abrasion resistance coat as well as deepening the finishing coat colour with semi- gloss finish.
Note: Traditional curing by water will encourage the appearance of efflorescence and cause some colour variation especially when dark colours are used.
Cleaning
All tools should be cleaned immediately after use with fresh clean water. Hardened materials should be cleaned mechanically.
