What

COLOR SILICONE PLASTER is ready-made finishing plaster (white or coloured) for protection and decoration of façades. It is available in grained (Z) or grooved (R) structure. COLOR SILICONE PLASTER is used as a finishing layer in external thermal insulation systems. Before the application of COLOR SILICONE PLASTER, apply COLOR GRUND to improve adhesion to the substrate and allow a uniform colour shade of the finishing layer.

Why

COLOR SILICONE PLASTER is most often used as a finishing layer on façade surfaces. COLOR SILICONE PLASTER is water-repellent and water vapor permeable, weather-resistant and resistant to harmful industrial atmosphere, dirt, rubbing and impact. COLOR SILICONE PLASTER contains the agent which prevents the growth of algae and mould in moderate weather conditions.

How

With an electric mixer, thoroughly mix COLOR SILICONE PLASTER in its original packaging. We recommend the use of one plaster batch for one façade side. If more than one plaster batches should be used, mixing different buckets in one larger vessel is recommended to avoid irregular colouration. If necessary, dilute it with water (max. 1 dcl per bucket of plaster). Apply the plaster manually, with a stainless steel trowel in the thickness of the largest grain, or mechanically – by spraying with appropriate machine. Before starting with work, protect the windows, doors and metal parts. Fortify the substrate with COLOR GRUND, tinted in the desired colour shade. After 24 hours of drying, COLOR SILICONE PLASTER can be applied. The substrate must be flat, clean, dry, firm and unfrozen.
COLOR SILICONE PLASTER Z (grained structure) should be structured immediately after the application by using plastic smoothing trowel, applying circular strokes to achieve an even structure.
COLOR SILICONE PLASTER R (grooved structure) should be structured 5 –10 min after application by using plastic smoothing trowel: applying circular, vertical or horizontal strokes, until the desired structure is achieved. Apply to the entire surface at once, without interruption, wet on wet. Air and substrate temperature during the application and drying should be not lower than +5 °C and higher than +35 °C. Relative air humidity should be lower than 80 %. The plaster should not be applied on the surfaces directly exposed to sun (protect the walls with the curtains) or during rainy, foggy or windy weather. We recommend the façade protection for at least 24 hours after application.
