Product Name
Euromix™ Concrete Finish.
Code
CONCFIN20, CONCFIN40,
CONCFIN60
Packaging
15 litre plastic buckets.
Appearance
In the bucket the material appears as a wet, grey, fine-grained plaster. When finished, in most circumstances it appears as an off-form concrete finish.
Application
Apply one build up layer of Euromix™ Concrete Finish with a stainless-steel trowel over the entire wall area. Apply in discontinuous strokes. This first layer can be 0.5 to 1.0mm thick to cover rendered surface.
After the first coat has been allowed to fully dry, give a good sanding to remove any imperfections, trowel marks etc.
Apply another two coats of Euromix™ Concrete Finish (depending on the smoothness or desired pattern) with a small steel trowel. Apply in very thin and tight layers and in discontinuous strokes making sure that material is not too wet or starting to dry.
Proceed to the polishing stage by repeatedly going over the finished surface, pressing firmly until the desired highlights appear.
A sealer coat should be applied if too exposed to weather
Drying and Curing
Avoid applying Euromix™ Concrete Finish in windy conditions or in temperatures outside the range 10°C to 30°C. Do not apply if rain or frost is imminent or possible before the product has properly dried. Where rain, or other exposure to moisture, is likely, it is required that the coating be shielded for at least 24 hours.
Drying and curing of the product is affected by type, dryness and porosity of the surface, temperature, humidity, ventilation, etc, and therefore drying and curing can only be given as a guide (at 25C & 50% RH):
Touch Dry
1 to 2 hours.
Recoat
2 hours.
Curing time
4 to 5 days, depending on weather.
Euromix™ Sandstone Texture cannot be applied directly over PVC, polystyrene (EPS), AAC or other absorbent materials without the application of a suitable base coat first.
Euromix™ recommends the use of Euromix™ Acrylic Primer as the priming coat with Euromix™ Sandstone.
