Preparation
- A test panel to check colour and final appearance is recommended.
- It is recommended that a K Rend basecoat is applied for K Rend Mineral TC.
- Backgrounds should be clean, level and dry and free from efflorescence; it is important that the background and any basecoat used is fully dry before application of the Primer TC and Mineral TC
- Mask all adjacent surfaces including windows, sills, doors, timber, glass, brick & flooring.
- All guttering should be installed, prior to application of render with gutter outlet pipes deflected away from the substrate surface.
- All other trades should have their first fix works completed, prior to render application.
- Protect weather exposed surfaces.
Application
- The temperature of the substrate and surrounding air should be a minimum of 1oC in any 24 hour cycle.
- Do not apply in conditions of strong sunshine or wind; do not apply onto damp or frozen substrates.
- Allow freshly applied render basecoats a minimum of 14 days before work commences.
- Prime walls using K Rend Primer TC, colour co-ordinated to topcoat and allow 24 hours drying time for primer before applying topcoat.
- Add 5-6 litres of clean water per 25kg sack.
- Mix thoroughly for at least 10 minutes to break down additives.
- Apply the product to the thickness of the largest grain size using a stainless steel float; allow to take up slightly. The surface is then rubbed up in a circular motion using a plastic float to create the texture.
- Complete continuous surfaces without interruption, working to a wet edge at all times.
- Drying times may be prolonged by lower temperatures and/or high humidity.
- The fresh render must be protected from rain and from drying too fast for at least 48 hours.
Coverage
- Largest grain 4.0mm: coverage = approximately 4.5 - 5.0 kg/m2
- These figures depend on substrate and applications technique.
