PREPARATIONS
Plasterboards must be fixed firmly and securely on the substrate.
The surface to be plastered stall be dry and dust-free.
Pour mix powder in clean water of room temperature and mix manually or mechanically.
Add 0.4 litres of water (40% of the weight of the mix) per kg of plaster.
Stir until the mix becomes uniform pasta without fractions.
The ready mix can be used for 30 minutes after adding water.
For application use plaster trowels with suitable width.
PLASTERING
Siler-4 is suitable for filling joints without jointing tape.
When filling joints or holes press plaster mix with a plaster trowel fully in the joints or holes.
Remove excessive mix.
Prepare plaster mix in a quantity that can be applied in 30 minutes.
Clean plaster trowels and mixing vessels immediately after plastering.
CURING
Plaster applied on the wall cures in 20-60 minutes.
The speed of curing to early strength depends on the thickness of the plaster layer on the wall and room temperature.
Hardened plaster is easily treatable.
The cured mix has very good adhesive strength with the substrate.
Shrinkage of the plaster is very low.
The cured mix can be easily sanded with sand paper.
LIMITATIONS
Working temperature must be over + 5 °C.
This plaster is not suitable to be used in damp conditions and it cannot be applied on wet surfaces.
Plaster that has started setting cannot be used.
Adding water to a setting plaster will not restore the properties and workability of the mix.
STORAGE
Plaster mix packed in bags and boxes should be stored closed in a dry room.
The storage time of the plaster mix is 12 months.
CONSUMPTION FOR PLASTERING
Consumption depends on the depth of the joints and in case of plastering larger areas also layer thickness.
