* Material consumption depends on the quality of substrate preparation, application method, tools used, the skill of the workers, and may differ from the indicated values.
**A certain content of particles differing from the main color is allowed, which does not affect the technical characteristics of the product. This is due to the presence of natural fillers in the composition.
*** The stated quality indicators and recommendations are valid for an ambient temperature of +20°C and a relative air humidity of 60%. Under other conditions, drying and adjustment times may differ from those specified.
Purpose and properties
High-quality, ready-to-use plaster based on the most modern solutions for use in facade thermal insulation systems based on mineral wool and expanded polystyrene, as well as for finishing inside dry and damp rooms in buildings and structures of types A, B, and C.
The innovative composition forms a coating with high strength, a self-cleaning effect, and the best ratio of high vapor permeability to low water absorption. Reinforcing microfibers give the coating additional strength, elasticity, and resistance to shrinkage.
Technical features
The hybrid nature of the material ensures excellent adhesion and the formation of strong bonds both with the substrate and within the coating itself; vertical bonds facilitate the formation of micro-tunnels for vapor release. The coating is resistant to mold and mildew. It can be tinted into pastel and saturated colors.
The plastic, easy-to-work-with consistency allows for quick and easy application of the plaster to the surface and the formation of the desired texture.
Tinting
The decorative plaster is produced as a base and can be tinted using a computer (machine) method into colors from RAL, NCS, and other color catalogs. Manual tinting is possible using water-based tinting pastes that have high light and weather resistance. The organization performing the tinting is responsible for the result.
Color rendering features
Depending on the application conditions, as well as the texture of the surface being painted, the actual color shades may differ slightly from those presented in the color catalog.
Before use, it is necessary to perform a test application and check the dried coating for color compliance.
To avoid differences in shade, it is recommended to use a product from the same production batch on a single visual plane (the batch number is indicated on each package) or to pre-mix materials from different batches in a 1:1 ratio; the application technology must remain unchanged.
Color recommendations
It is recommended to use BERGAUF FACADE GRUNT primer in a color close to the color of the plaster being used.
The use of intense or dark-colored materials with a reflection coefficient of less than 25% on facades should be limited to small surfaces occupying no more than 10% of the facade, for example, individual architectural details.
Application technology
Work should be carried out in accordance with SP 293.1325800.2017.
Before application, the plaster must be thoroughly mixed, as product separation may occur during storage. It is permissible to dilute the plaster with water in an amount of no more than 5% of the material's mass.
Apply the plaster with a stainless steel trowel at a 60° angle to the surface; the layer thickness should correspond to the grain size of the plaster. After some time, when the mixture stops sticking to the tool, you can begin forming the texture with a plastic trowel. The plastic trowel should be held parallel to the surface and the texture formed with light movements, without pressure.
The "pebble" texture is formed with small circular movements of the trowel, directed in one direction, usually counter-clockwise.
Features of work execution
If it is necessary to stop work, apply masking tape along the edge of the plaster layer, which must be removed before the plaster hardens. To obtain a uniform texture, ensure a sufficient number of workers at each level of the scaffolding and perform the connection of sections between adjacent levels using the "wet-on-wet" method.
At an ambient temperature below +20°C and a relative humidity above 60%, the decorative plaster should be protected from direct sunlight, wind, and rain for the first 3 days after application. Under such conditions, it is recommended to cover the scaffolding with a special net or film and install water drainage systems on the building. Do not allow freezing or drying out.
Interior finishing should be carried out only in well-ventilated rooms, and after the work is completed, air circulation should be maintained until the coating is completely dry.
Subsequent works
The surface of the decorative plaster can be painted with acrylic, silicone, or silicate paints. Painting should be carried out no earlier than 3–5 days later, depending on environmental conditions.
Clean tools with water immediately after use. If the tools were not cleaned immediately, they can only be cleaned mechanically later.
Limitations
It is forbidden to work during precipitation, fog, or on wet surfaces after rain, and at temperatures below +5 °C and above +30 °C.
Storage and transportation conditions
Store and transport in tightly closed containers at a temperature of at least +5°C and no more than +30°C. Five-fold freezing with a total duration of no more than 3 weeks at temperatures not lower than -20°C is permitted.
The bucket with the product should be protected from excessive heat and stored away from direct sunlight. If conditions are met, the warranty shelf life in the original sealed packaging is 24 months from the date of manufacture.
Safety
The product is fire and explosion-proof and does not contain flammable components.
