APPLICATION

SURFACE PREPARATION  

  • The surface will always be free of form oil, dust, paint and materials that reduce adherence.
  • Repair of the cracks and holes should be made using appropriate Entegre Repair Mortars before application.
  • Application surface should be dampened with water, if required. PRİMEL 600® BETOKONTAK is applied to the surface to improve adherence performance on very bright and smooth surfaces.
  • You can advance to application of SKIMCOAT® when the surface is cured.

PREPARATION of the MORTAR  

  • Water will be put to the mixing vessel first, then SKIMCOAT® should be added (17 - 18 l water/25 kg bag) and it should be stirred until the lumps are removed. 
  • Stop for 5 minutes, and stir again to achieve a homogeneous mixture.
  • The mortar prepared should be applied to the surface at a thickness of 1-2 mm with a steel trowel.
  • Application is completed by checking the surface with a fine sandpaper before painting
