Surface Preparation   :

The application panel should be clean and dry. Plastering should be carried out at least 48 hours after the affixing of the panels.

Application                :

  • Slowly add 25 kg’s Gesterm Plaster 440 Thermal Insulation Panel Plaster to 6-7 liters of water in the mixing container and mix with a slow-speed mixer until a homogenous and pellet-free mixture is obtained. Wait for 10 minutes for settling, and then mix for another 1-2 minutes then apply.
  • The adhesive plaster should be applied with a 10 x 10mm toothed steel trowel. Corner and window profiles should be mounted. Window and door corners should be reinforced with traverse plaster netting. The Gesterm plaster netting should overlap at 10 cm on the joining parts and embedded (approximately for 1-1,5 mm) into the surface before the plaster dries with the help of a trowel and close to the outer facades and the plaster surface should be smooth.
  • Thickness of the plaster should be approximately 4 mm after the application.
  • For temperatures above +25 ºC, in order to prevent sudden water loss and ensure smooth setting of the plaster, the surface should be watered at regular intervals.
  • The application shall not be carried out under direct sunlight, rain and during heavy winds.
  • The prepared mortar shall be used within maximum 3 hours’ time.
