Plaster gypsum white teplon unis characteristics. Working with teplon plaster is the key to successful construction and repair work. Scope of Teplon plaster

The Teplon white gypsum plaster offered by the company meets the requirements for these finishing materials in all respects. In its composition, the manufacturer introduces an additional component - perlite, which reduces the setting time of the solution. Perlite is produced from a natural natural mineral - mica, which increases after solidification, acquiring excellent thermal insulation characteristics.

Gypsum plaster unis Teplon differs from other plasters in its insignificant weight, aesthetic appearance this material performs the function of thermal protection of the living space.

Among the main advantages of Teplon gypsum plaster, professionals highlight the maximum strength of the resulting coating. The plaster layer can be applied over the entire treated surface up to 5 cm thick, eliminating irregularities 5-7 cm deep.

Attention ! This gypsum plaster can be applied in several layers, having previously made a mesh notch on the surface with a spatula.

Applying Teplon plaster to the ceiling surface

With a solution of Teplon plaster, level and vertical walls, and horizontal ceilings. When plastering the ceiling, a standard algorithm is used, reducing the thickness of the putty layer to 3 cm.

Technical parameters of Teplon for ceiling:

  • improving the thermal insulation characteristics of the ceiling;
  • adhesion of the solution;
  • the strength of the resulting surface;
  • ease of application (ease of use is explained by the low weight of the mixture, excellent plasticity, uniformity of the consistency of the plaster mixture).

When this composition is applied to the ceiling, there are no problems, it smoothes quickly and smoothes out easily. The coating has a characteristic smoothness, glossy or matte appearance.

Advice ! If Teplon solution white applied in compliance with all technological features, in this case, it will not be necessary to additionally apply finishing putty(you will experience significant cost savings).

How to work with unis gypsum plaster

When working with gypsum plaster, you must go through the following steps:

  1. Surface preparation. With the help of Eunice gypsum plaster, you can create a flat, uniform, smooth surface without fear of shrinkage cracks, if you properly prepare the wall (ceiling) for work. First you need to check the strength of the surface, dry it. Old paint, plaster, putty, which does not firmly adhere to the wall, are removed with a construction trowel. The area to be treated is cleaned of dust, oil or bitumen contaminants are removed. If necessary, a 2-3 cm notch is made on the surface, increasing the adhesion between the plaster solution and the surface.

    Advice! It is advisable to carry out surface treatment with highly penetrating compounds, selecting them taking into account the specifics of the base (for aerated concrete, foam concrete, 2-3 layer priming is carried out).

  2. Preparation of the solution. It is important to strictly observe the proportions of water and mixture, which are indicated on the package of the mixture. So that the mixture has maximum specifications, it is important to thoroughly mix the components using an electric mixer with attachments. After initial mixing, the solution is left for 10-15 minutes, then mixed again. The introduction of a gypsum binder into the mixture accelerates the setting time, therefore ready mix should be used within 40-50 minutes after preparation. It is not recommended to dilute the mixture a second time, the solution will have low technical characteristics.
  3. Application of the solution. For applying plaster plaster mass Eunice Teplon will need a spatula or trowel. The best tools will be made of high quality of stainless steel(do not corrode). Before the mixture starts to "set", it is important to treat the plastered surface with the rule, eliminating irregularities and roughness. After 1.5-2 hours after setting, the applied layer of white gypsum plaster Yunis Teplon is treated with a special sponge float. As soon as the gypsum plaster mixture is dry, you can start painting the wall (ceiling) or wallpapering the surface. There is no need to waste time and cash on the use of finishing putty.

Areas of application of unis gypsum plaster

This finishing material is suitable for various activities:

  • execution of front works;
  • interior decoration.

Such gypsum plaster guarantees the leveling of ceilings and walls in rooms with normal humidity (gypsum composition is not suitable for leveling surfaces in bathrooms and toilets).

Plastering composition Eunis Teplon is suitable for brick, concrete, wooden walls, its main component is gypsum with mineral additives.

Attention ! For each type of surface, its own primer compositions have been developed.

Unis Teplon White: technical parameters

Unis Teplon White gypsum plaster has the following technical parameters:

  • Strength 2.5 MPa per 1 cm (the finished surface is able to withstand pressure up to 25 kg). The adhesion strength of the mixture to the surface is estimated at 0.1 MPa, which is not bad for mixtures used in interior decoration.
  • There is no need to use a reinforcing mesh when working with Teplon White. Whatever the composition base surface, priming is a mandatory step. Finished finishing layer thickness is 50 mm. Working with Teplon does not imply the installation of beacons at the first stage of work, they will be required when performing finishing the surface to be plastered. A new layer is applied only after the previous layer is completely dry.
  • The average consumption of Teplon gypsum plaster is 4.5-5 liters per 10 kg. The duration of the viable period of the finished plaster is 50 minutes. The manufacturer offers a mixture of 15 and 30 kg, the choice is up to the buyer.
  • The indoor air temperature should be in the range from -5 to +30 degrees. Such a temperature regime allows gypsum plaster to acquire maximum strength, thermal insulation characteristics, avoid shrinkage, small cracks.

On the efficiency of Teplona Bely

  1. Insignificant consumption of this mixture in comparison with cement-sand compositions - excellent advantage Teplona.
  2. A layer of gypsum plaster of 4-5 mm is similar brickwork in 1-1.5 bricks.

Conclusion

Gypsum plasters with additional plasticizers and fillers Teplon are suitable for difficult ceiling surfaces, uneven walls... Such mixtures have a reasonable cost, are easy to use, and have good performance. With full compliance with all the recommendations of the manufacturers indicated on the packaging of the mixture, you can count on getting flat surface resistant to pathogens, chemical and atmospheric corrosion.

Teplon is a perlite-based plaster. Due to its composition, Teplon not only makes the room warm, but, in contrast to analogues, has a significantly lower weight, which reduces the load on the foundation.

Due to its undeniable advantages, Teplon from UNIS collects more positive than negative reviews.

By the way, one of the few disadvantages of Teplon is that the mixture is not moisture resistant. Therefore, this plaster can only be used for interior decoration.

However, the UNIS "Teplon" has much more advantages:

  • "Teplon" maintains a favorable microclimate in the room due to high vapor and air permeability, keeps acceptable level humidity.
  • the ability to apply from 5 to 70mm without plaster mesh(for ceilings up to 30 mm).
  • reduces labor costs for repairs due to economical use of material
  • does not require additional finishing materials to level the surface.
  • provides the smoothest surface possible, thus eliminating the need for filling.
  • non-shrink and crack-resistant coating.
  • reduces labor costs for repairs due to economical use of material;
  • due to its low density, it is lightweight and reduces the structural load on the base of the house.
  • "Teplon" can be used even in children's rooms, as it is an environmentally friendly and safe material.

Instructions for the use of the plaster mixture "Teplon"

  • The first stage is the preparation of the solution. Be sure to read the instructions on the packaging first. Pour the plaster mixture into a container with water (0.45-0.55 l per 1 kg of dry mix). Stir for 2-3 minutes until smooth. If you have a large volume of material, use a professional mixer or drill with a special attachment at low speeds. Leave for 5 minutes, stir again. Bingo! The mixture is ready. You now have 50 minutes (from the moment of mixing) to apply it.
  • Now let's move on to installing the beacons. They will become a guideline for the thickness of the plaster (to create a flat surface) and are placed before applying the base coat. Control the location of the beacons with a level. The length of the rule should be less than the distance between them by 20-30 cm. Further work can be carried out in 3-4 hours.
  • We turn to the most important thing - the application of the solution. Attention! Try to have time to apply ready solution in 20-30 minutes using a spatula or trowel. Then level the surface building rule... If the thickness of the intended plaster layer on the wall does not go beyond 5 mm to 50 mm, ceiling plaster - 5 mm - 30 mm and up to 70 mm when filling the recesses, then the plaster mesh is not needed.
  • The plaster mixture will begin to set in 50-60 minutes from the moment the solution is prepared. At this point, the applied layer is smoothed out by the rule.
  • If the surface has irregularities exceeding 5 cm, preliminary leveling with Teplon is required. In this case, the maximum thickness of each layer is 3 cm. Before applying a new layer, wait until the previous one is completely dry.
  • After 90-120 minutes we will move on to the last part - the final leveling of the surface. Moisten the set, but not yet hardened surface with water and rub it with a sponge float. Using a spatula or trowel, smooth out the protruding "gypsum milk" over the entire surface.

Teplon plaster. Price

  • Eunice "Teplon" plaster can be purchased in 15 and 30 kg bags.
  • Moscow, Yunis "Teplon" (white), 30 kg - from 290 rubles.

Finishing interior walls and the ceiling is a laborious process, and its result directly depends on the quality of the materials used. If you use teplon plaster to level the surfaces, then you can be sure of the successful completion of the work performed.

  • thermal insulation properties due to light perlite;
  • dries quickly;
  • does not require additional application of putty.

Thanks to this, this plaster has proven itself well among craftsmen. At the same time, it requires less time to build strength, which undoubtedly speeds up the work.

Material features

Specifications building materials directly depend on their composition. Teplon is great for internal works of varying complexity, as it has a number of important qualities:

  • the optimal consumption per square meter when applying a layer of 1 cm is no more than 10 kg;
  • can be used for deep cracks up to 7 cm;
  • when finishing the ceiling, the thickness of the layer can reach 30 mm, and on the wall without a grid - up to 50 mm;
  • use of the solution is possible within 50 minutes after its preparation.

In addition, the plaster has excellent performance properties: the ready-made gypsum mixture, applied to any surface, dries completely after 180 minutes. At the same time, Unis also made sure that after using its product on the wall or ceiling, it was not necessary to apply additional finishing layers... In this case, the heat not only quickly grasps and does not crack, but also forms an even glossy surface, which after a short period of time is ready for further processing.

Application area

Eunice mixes are renowned for being used to solve a large number construction and repair tasks. It should be noted that this plaster is used for interior work on any grounds. It is easily fixed on concrete, reinforced concrete, foam concrete, brick. Teplon can be used with gas silicate. Old plaster can also act as a base.

So that the frozen surface lasts a long time and shows all its positive characteristics, the room must be dry and heated. The ready-made gypsum mixture is ideal for a wide range of premises from offices to residential buildings.

If construction and repair work involves further finishing, then this composition will show itself as best as possible. Putty can be applied to it, although due to its properties it can do without topcoat... The only exception for this type of building mixture is decorative plaster which cannot be applied to heat. If in the future it is planned to glue texture wallpaper, a gypsum mix would be the best choice.

One of the important advantages of the composition of this class is special certification, which allows it to be used in medical and educational institutions... This significantly expands the scope of the material and suggests that the heat is safe and has excellent performance characteristics.

What does the use of perlite in the mixture give?

The plaster contains an interesting component - perlite. It is made from mica, which under the influence high temperatures increases its volume and decreases density. Perlite influences the physical characteristics of the dried surface in the following way: firstly, as an auxiliary element, it lightens the mixture. Secondly, it improves noise and thermal insulation properties, which allows you to save on additional materials.

These qualities are perfectly combined with vapor permeability. Due to this, the gypsum mixture "breathes", and, accordingly, does not collect excess moisture, which can contribute to the formation of cracks and internal destruction of surfaces. Thus, the manufacturer has ensured that this building mixture had excellent performance characteristics and did not require additional protective layers on top.

Necessary preparatory work

After the heat hardens, it forms a flat, smooth surface without cracks or irregularities. However, it is worth considering one point: if the substrate is incorrectly prepared, the result of the work may be nullified.

One of the main requirements for the base on which the gypsum mixture will subsequently be applied is the absence excess moisture... In addition, the ability of the substrate to support the weight of the finish should be checked. Of course, due to the use of pearlite as an auxiliary component, the composition turns out to be lightweight, but you still need to make sure that the substrate can withstand the applied layer (and it can be up to 50 mm).

Another important task that must be performed before using the Unice mixture is to clean the surface from dust, dirt, and also everything that can subsequently peel off or peel off. To do this, in most cases, it is enough to walk with a hard sandpaper.

In order for the gypsum mixture, diluted with water, to adhere better to the substrate, a notch in the form of a grid can be applied to it. The depth of the grooves should be no more than 3 mm, and this can be done with any sharp object, for example, a knife. Due to this uncomplicated action, the solution will penetrate deeper into the material that will be under it.

For the same purpose, it is necessary to choose correct primer... First, it must match the base material. Secondly, it is advisable to take deeply penetrating species. At the same time, some bases (foam or aerated concrete), which absorb moisture quite strongly, often have to be primed several times.

How to prepare a solution for application to various surfaces?

The complex composition that this plaster has, determines the presence of several simple, but important rules... They should be taken into account before starting work. Firstly, in order for the solution to be of high quality, it is necessary to observe the proportions indicated by the manufacturer.

For mixing use electric tool eg a dedicated mixer with matching attachments. It is advisable to carry out this process in several stages in order to leave a little time at the very beginning and let the solution brew. After that, you can re-mix the solution, bringing it to the desired consistency.

It should be taken into account that the gypsum component provides a fairly fast solidification of the solution. This is why it must be used within 50 minutes, even if special retarders have been added. If the composition has hardened, then it is impossible to reuse it in work, diluting it with water. It will have a reduced strength, which can lead to undesirable negative consequences.

Methods for applying the finished solution

The simplest method is manual. After preparing the Unis composition, you must use a spatula or trowel for further work. In this case, it is best to use steel tools, since they are recommended by experts and the manufacturer.

After applying the solution, it is necessary to wait about an hour, after which it is necessary to process the surface using the rule, remove the roughness, if any, and fill in the recesses. After another 30-60 minutes, the surface should be moistened and treated with a special sponge float.

Already 3 hours after application, the composition should harden. At this stage, it is completely ready for further work, namely for painting or, for example, for wallpapering.

Of course, this procedure is quite simple, especially for a person who does it not for the first time. Despite this, it can take a lot of time, even for a team of craftsmen, if a wide scope of work is planned. In this case, comes to the rescue modern technology, which significantly reduces the working time and increases labor productivity. Eunice Blend is the fastest to apply with mechanical method, which implies the use of a special automatic mobile station.

How is the process of mechanized application of the solution on the surface going? The apparatus for performing these works is quite simple. It consists of the following components: a compressor, a special medium power screw pump, a drive unit, a chassis, and ancillary parts. There is also a compartment for mixing the solution in such a station. It is in it that the mixture is poured and water is poured.

The machine takes over the function of mixing the ingredients, so the consistency of the final composition is exactly what it should be. This is due to the fact that the process is not influenced by the human factor, and several work algorithms are already programmed inside the device.

After the plaster is ready for use, the machine feeds it into the hose under pressure. Then it enters the gun, with which it is evenly sprayed onto the surface to be treated. This achieves maximum working speed and high quality surface treatment.

Benefits of using

This mixture is versatile. That is why it can be applied both in a classical way and in a hardware manner. The difference lies in the fact that for the second method it is necessary to master the technique of working with an automatic station. However, due to the fact that the solution is supplied under pressure and in uniform portions, the work productivity increases by 3-4 times.

For example, we can say that a team, which includes 4 foremen, using a special machine in 8 hours can process from 100 to 300 square meters surface. In this case, it will be possible to manually apply no more than 25. Additionally, you can reduce the consumption of the dry part. The system mixes the solution more thoroughly and adds just as much water as necessary, controlling the proportions thanks to the built-in programs.

Thus, unice solutions with the addition of perlite are excellent for all kinds of internal finishing works. Ready composition fits perfectly on all existing surfaces, and can also be used as a backing for wallpaper or, for example, used for painting.

In addition, it pleases with its performance characteristics: plasticity, low weight, optimal working interval and fast solidification after its completion.

When carrying out work, as well as during the drying period of the solution, the air temperature in the room should be observed in the range of +5 ... + 30 ° С and the air humidity level is not more than 75%.

Surface preparation

The base must be flat, strong, dry and load-bearing. Before applying the material, remove loose elements, paint coatings and any other contamination from the surface. The surface must be treated with UNIS primer in one or two layers; uneven and highly absorbent substrates (gas silicate, foam concrete, etc.) - in several layers. The UNIS primer is selected according to the type of substrate. Dusting of primed surfaces is not allowed. Plastering should be carried out only after the primed surface has completely dried.

All irregularities, potholes, cracks with a depth of more than 50 mm must be pre-filled with TEPLON plaster in several layers. The thickness of each layer with a continuous leveling of the surface should not exceed 50 mm, with a layer over 50 mm, it is recommended to use a plaster mesh.

For thick-layer leveling on the prepared base using TEPLON plaster, install the beacons at a distance of 20-30 cm less than the length of the used rule. The correctness of the installation of beacons is checked by the level. After the mortar fixing the beacons has hardened, you can continue to work.

Preparation of the solution

To prepare the solution, pour the dry mixture into a container with clean water(for 1 kg of dry mixture 0.40-0.50 l) and stir for 1-3 minutes until a homogeneous mass is obtained. Stirring is done mechanized way- a professional mixer with a nozzle at low speed. Manual mixing is allowed when the mass of the mixed mixture is not more than 1 kg. Let the solution stand for 5 minutes and stir again. After that, the solution is ready for use. The prepared portion of the solution must be consumed no later than 50 minutes after mixing.

Attention! When preparing the solution, it is necessary to observe the ratio "dry mixture - water". It is not allowed to add any components other than water to the dry mixture. Adding any components to the ready-made solution, including water, leads to a change in the material properties declared by the manufacturer. To prepare the solution, use only clean containers and tools.

Installing beacons

On a previously prepared base in the places where the beacons are installed, apply plaster mortar"Teplon". Without waiting for the mixture to dry, press the beacons into the solution applied to the surface. The correctness of the installation of the beacons is checked by the level. The distance between the beacons should be 20-30 cm less than the length of the rule. Further work is carried out 3-4 hours after the installation of the beacons.

Material application

The prepared solution is applied to the surface with a trowel or spatula within 20-30 minutes after mixing, then leveled with a rule. The layer of application of the plaster mixture without the use of plaster mesh on the walls is from 5 to 50 mm and up to 70 mm when filling the recesses, for ceilings - from 5 to 30 mm.

At the moment the mortar begins to set (80-90 minutes after mixing the mixture), trim the applied layer with the rule, removing the excess and filling the grooves. The resulting surface, after final drying, is suitable for bonding ceramic tiles.

Leveling of differences of more than 50 mm

In the presence of differences of more than 50 mm, preliminary leveling of the surface is carried out using the Teplon plaster mixture. For this, the plaster mixture is applied in several layers, each layer is laid with a plaster mesh. Installation of beacons for applying pre-leveling layers is not required. Application of Teplon plaster in several layers is possible without using a plaster mesh; for this, cross-shaped notches are applied on a seized, but not yet hardened layer of plaster (80-90 minutes after mixing) using a comb or a notched trowel.

The thickness of each layer, if it is necessary to level out significant (more than 50 mm) differences, should not exceed 30 mm. Before applying a new layer of plaster mixture, it is necessary to wait until the previous layer is completely dry and treat the surface with UNIS primer.

Smoothing and glossing

Depending on the thickness of the applied layer, in 90-120 minutes after cutting, moisten the surface with water, rub with a spongy float and smooth out with gypsum milk that has protruded onto the surface using a spatula or trowel. The resulting surface, after drying, is suitable for wallpapering or painting.

Most often for interior decoration premises are used plaster mixes. They are easily and quickly applied, while such compositions differ affordable price... In addition, plaster is versatile material for preparing bathroom walls and other rooms for finishing. The leader in dry mortar sales is Unis. One of the most popular formulations from this company is Teplon, a gypsum-based plaster. Let's consider the features of this material and start, of course, with the pros and cons.

Advantages and disadvantages

Modern gypsum plaster Yunis Teplon compares favorably with:

  • Good vapor permeability, due to which a healthy microclimate is created in the room.
  • Low thermal conductivity. A heat-insulating layer is created on the surface, which enhances the heat-shielding characteristics of the premises.
  • Environmentally friendly. The composition of Teplon gypsum plaster includes synthetic and natural components that cannot be harmful to health.
  • Profitability.
  • No shrinkage and cracking.
  • Ease of application.
  • Low weight, due to which the load on the plane of the processed surface is significantly reduced.
  • Fast adhesion.
  • No need to use a finishing putty. The treated surface will be slightly glossy, so no additional finishing is required.

However, despite its many advantages, this formulation has a low pot life (material must be used in 50 minutes). Also, some builders note the reduced strength of the material. However, they are usually compared with more expensive drywall, to which Teplon is somewhat inferior in technical characteristics. In addition, the compositions of these materials also differ, so it is not entirely correct to compare them.

Teplon composition

The main component of the mixture is gypsum, which acts as connecting link... In addition, Teplona contains natural material- perlite, which is an expanded crumb of natural mica. Thanks to this component, the plaster retains heat. In addition, perlite makes the mixture very light and accelerates the hardening process. On the other hand, it is precisely because of this component that the plaster cannot be used for outdoor work.

In addition to the fine-grained filler, synthetic additives are added to the mixture.

In terms of its composition, Eunice products practically do not differ from similar compositions of Knauf Rotband. Therefore, it is impossible to say that Rotband or Teplon is better. True, after all, there are several differences:

  • Eunice is Russian manufacturer and Knauf is a German firm.
  • The cost of domestic putty will be approximately 60 rubles lower.

In all other respects, these are two identical compositions. Therefore, you choose - Teplon or Rotband. If we talk about the properties of these compounds, then they are also no different.

Properties and cost of Teplon

Before moving on to finishing work, it will be useful to familiarize yourself with the technical characteristics and properties of gypsum plaster:

  • The strength is 2.5 MPa per 1 cm 2. At the same time, the plaster can withstand a pressure of more than 25 kg. By the way, the strength characteristics of the same drywall are not much more (3-5 MPa).
  • The maximum layer thickness for ceilings is 3 cm, and for walls 5 cm.However, it is better to apply the plaster in a layer of about 0.5-0.7 cm. If you want to increase the thickness finishing material, then you can use a reinforcing mesh.
  • Frost hardiness - F35.
  • Colors. The plaster is available in two colors - white and gray. It should be borne in mind that the white mixture may slightly differ from the gray composition in its properties, therefore, before using it, be sure to read the annotation on the package.
  • Thermal conductivity of Teplon is 0.23 W / m o C.
  • Adhesion. The solution adheres well to the surface. The adhesion level is 1.0 kgf / cm 2. Due to this, when applying a layer of up to 0.7 cm, you will not have to use a reinforcing mesh.
  • Moisture absorption. Gypsum plaster, which contains perlite, absorbs moisture very well.
  • Consumption for 10 kg is about 4.5-5.5 kg of Teplon. The mixtures are sold in packs of 15 and 30 kg. If we talk about the consumption per 1 m 2, then no more than 8.5-10 kg of the mixture will be spent on the "square". At a cost, this will be about 130 rubles.

If we talk about the cost of mixtures, then:

  • Yunis Teplon white plaster will cost 150 rubles for a 15 kg package and about 340 rubles for a 30-kilogram bag.
  • The gray composition costs a little less from 278 to 310 for 30 kg.

Before buying, it is worth deciding on the scope of work and clarifying whether the selected composition is suitable for a particular room.

Areas of use of plaster

Excellent technical characteristics of the mixture allow it to be used for various finishing works. Most often it is used for leveling and finishing surfaces in residential premises and medical institutions with normal humidity values. This composition can be safely used in children's bedrooms, since it does not contain caustic or toxic substances.

Teplon can be applied to any surface: brick, cement-sand, wood, gypsum, concrete and foam concrete.

The only condition is that you cannot use plaster for the bathroom if it will act as a finishing layer. Teplon can be applied only under the tiles. Otherwise, there are no restrictions on use.

After purchasing the plaster, you need to study the instructions for use and you can start surface treatment.

How to apply Teplon

At the first stage, it is necessary to make preparatory work... To do this, remove from the treated surface old plaster and wallpaper. Also, the walls need to be rinsed and dried. All "growths" must be cut off. Despite the fact that the composition has good adhesion, it is recommended to apply small incisions to the surface. After that, the walls must be covered with a primer (2-3 layers) and diluted with Teplon's solution.

Preparation of the mixture

Dilute the solution in accordance with the proportions indicated on the package. The standard ratio is 1 kg of plaster per 0.45-0.55 liters of water. However, if you use white plaster, then the volume of water must be increased to 1.8-2.2 liters.

Healthy! If there is too much water, then the solution will simply spread over the surface. If you are greedy with water, then the diluted composition will begin to crack.

The mixture must be thoroughly mixed with water, it is best if you have an electric mixer or a drill with an appropriate attachment at hand. After mixing, the solution must be infused for 5-6 minutes, after which the plaster is re-mixed.

It is recommended to prepare the mixture in small portions. Some people believe that it is better to make a large volume of material at once, so as not to suffer sweat with constant stirring and waiting. In this case, this approach will not work. The "life" of the plaster is only 50 minutes (it is recommended to keep within half an hour), after this time the batch will become unusable. If you use an already "expired" material, the coating will be very fragile. After a while, such plaster will simply crumble.

Plastering

To apply the prepared solution to the wall, it is enough to use a trowel or a spatula (it is better different sizes). It is best to purchase tools that are made of stainless steel.

Healthy! You can use the mixture only when temperature conditions from +5 to +30 degrees.

After the composition has been applied to the surface, it is necessary to process it with a rule in order to remove all irregularities. After a few hours, the plaster will harden.

If you used white plaster, then 1.5-2 hours after its application, you need to walk over the surface with a spongy float.

After that, you need to wait about a week until the composition completely hardens. Complete drying calculated on the basis that a 10 mm layer will completely harden in 5-7 days at a temperature of +22 degrees and normal humidity.

In custody

Eunice Teplon is one of the most quality plasters, which is characterized by durability, low cost and excellent performance. Using this mixture will allow you to significantly save on finishing work.
