Mixing

For manual application add to the mixing container 6.6 - 7.4 liters of water for each 20 Kg bag of Vetotherm Plaster or 33 - 37% of weight for machine application. Add the powder to the water and mix with a mechanical plaster mixer or low speed electric drill fitted with a suitable paddle for 3-4 minutes, until a uniform, lump-free consistency is achieved.
Manual mixing is allowed for small batch quantities, mix for approx. 1-2 min or when homogeneous mix is achieved.

Application

Vetotherm Plaster can be applied in a single or two coats on rough or smooth surfaces by manual or machine application to achieved desired thickness 25-100 mm.
Apply mixed material using spray machine or hawk & trowel technique. Rod or screed to uniform thickness, not exceeding 25 mm for single coat or 25 mm each coat for multiple layers. First layer should be pressed hard against the surface.
For second layer allow the first layer to partially set (60-120min depending on weather). Apply second layer as described above.
Water spray the surface if second layer is carried out next day.

Curing

Vetotherm Plaster is best cured by spraying water evenly on the surfaces of applied materials every 12 hrs for minimum of 3 days. During hot & dry conditions allow curing for minimum of 5 days. It will help to obtain high mechanical strengths.
