An easy way to give a perfectly smooth weatherproof finish to rough or uneven plaster. Ready mixed for easy use, it will skim up to 5m thick and is specially formulated to adhere strongly to plaster. Simply skim it on and smooth it off, it will set hard in 4 hours to a white, weatherproof and alkali resistant finish that does not need to be primed before painting.
1. Stir to a creamy consistency.
2. Apply Fixit SmoothOver with a wet plastering trowel,
skimming tool or large scraper moving in an upward curve maintaining a firm and
even pressure. Applying only as much Fixit SmoothOver as needed, it is
advisable to build the film thickness in multiple layers rather than one thick
coat (maximum thickness 5mm). Don't worry about small irregularities or
"tramlines".
3. Allow to dry for at least 2 hours before sanding with
100Gritt sand paper to a smooth finish. Thick applications or damp weather may
require a slightly longer drying period.
4. As an alternative to sanding, Fixit SmoothOver can be
floated or polished. As soon as Fixit SmoothOver is dry enough to touch (not
fully dry), use a wet foam trowel to polish the surface in a circular movement,
cleaning and wetting the trowel beween strokes to achieve the ultimate Fixit
SmoothOver finish.
5. After 6 hours you can overcoat with any Dulux® water based
paint. Allow to dry for at least 16 hours before overcoating with Dulux® enamel
paints.
6. You do not need to prime before painting.
NB: Instead of using gypsum powder on your walls this is a right product for your walls....
