Euromix™ Masonry Finishing System

Euromix™ offers a wide range of different render and texture solutions for finishing over all types of Masonry Substrates such as Bricks, Blocks, Concrete Etc.

System Scope

The Euromix™ Masonry system summarised here covers;

Substrate preparation.

·Fixing of PVC trims & angles, cutting of joints, etc.

Application of Euromix™ Renders to a nominal thickness of 6-8mm, to level and make good some

variations and irregularities in level / alignment of substrate, as allowed by the thickness of render being applied, to achieve a high-quality surface on absorbent masonry substrates

Application of a finish coat of render to a nominal thickness of 2-3mm, finished to a float finish

ready for a textured decorative finish (from 0,4mm to 1.2mm thickness).

Application of Euromix™ Acrylic Primer prior to application of Texture coating finishes.

As the majority of renders can produce shrinkage cracking while they are drying and curing, the

application of a Texture coating finish will always give you an extra flexible coating that will bridge and stop most of the hairline cracking.

Depending on where the location of the project and knowing that most projects are either located

near the ocean, busy roads etc, it is our recommendation to use a good quality Elastomeric Membrane Paint as a topcoat to protect from the effects of pollutants such as salty air, dirt, dust, pollution etc. This will also help in the maintenance and longer life of the coatings since it can be washed over a few times a year.

As another option for the render finish, when not texture coating is applied, we recommend

the application of a finish coat of Euromix™ Skim to achieve a fine sponge finish ready for painting. We recommend to always good quality elastomeric membrane paint.

Euromix™ Renders are designed for use as a decorative finish. They are not to be used in ‘engineered’ applications where special strength, movement, hardness, or other performance characteristics are required.

Drying and curing of the product is affected by type, dryness and porosity of the surface, temperature, humidity, ventilation, climate conditions and application technique and therefore drying and curing can only be given as a guide (at 25C & 50% RH):

Touch Dry

Thirty (30) - sixty (60) minutes, depending on thickness.

Recoat

Twenty four (24) hours
