Definition
It is ready-to-use gypsum plaster whose setting and processing times have been lengthened and heat and sound insulation characteristics have been increased, and applied manually.
Area of Application
-Can be applied on surface kinds such as bricks, briquettes, gas concrete, concrete and exposed concrete easily.
Application Features
-Using period: 100-120 minutes
-Application thickness: min. 10 mm, max. 20mm -Setting time: 60-80 minutes later
-An inflammable construction material.
-Never allows bacterial or fungi growth. Surface Preparation
-The application surfaces must be cleared of dust, dirt, oil, etc. that prevent adherence. -Any irregularities on the application surfaces, if any, are repaired with BGC Gypsum Repair Plaster.
-It is necessary to make sure that the surface has been cured and robust.
-Metal surfaces must be protected against corrosion before application.
-Exposed concrete, ceiling and wall roughening process must be done using primer increasing the adherence.
Application Conditions
-Ambient temperature should be between +5°C and +35°C
-Do not apply on frozen, melting surfaces, or surfaces likely to freeze within 24 hours.
-Do not apply on surfaces under direct sun or strong wind, or hot surfaces.
-The newly applied surfaces must be protected against water contact definitely. Warnings and Advices
-Pay attention to the water/plaster ratio of the mix. Otherwise, it may cause spalling, cracks or strength reduction.
-Do not apply in very hot, dry or windy environments. If applied in very hot environments, it may cause spalling, cracks and strength reduction consequently.
-Pay attention to the product storing conditions.
-Do not keep the product in humid or very hot places.
-In case any petrification is found out in the bag, do not use the product.
-Do not breathe its powder since it consists of various chemical additives and plaster. -Avoid contact with skin and eyes. In case of contact, wash your skin/eyes with plenty of water. Use protective equipment such as mask, gloves etc. during the works. Application Tools
Hand mixer, plastering trowel, floating rule, steel trowel
Application
1. The container in which the mortar will be prepared must be clean and cleared of the
remnants of the previous mixture.
2. It is necessary to pay attention to cleanliness of the water and materials used.
3. The water used in the mixture should not be salty, acidic or oily. The water
temperature must be between 17 and 23°C.
4. The mortar must be prepared by using 5.5-6 liters of water and 10 kg of BGC Grouting
Gypsum Plaster.
5. Water is poured into the container, and then BGC Gypsum Hand Plaster is added. The
plaster is given approximately 2 minutes to absorb the water.
6. The plaster is mixed until a homogeneous consistency is achieved by mixing with a
trowel or hand mixer.
7. If you are using a mechanical mixer, it must be used at a low speed. High speed
increases the plaster consumption, and causes irregularities such as early hardening.
8. No water or plaster should be added into the mortar during or after mixing to prevent
lump formation.
9. It must be ensured that the application surface is moistened prior to application.
10. Aluminum floating rule is used to make the surface smooth, and the surplus mortar is
removed.
11. After the plaster has set sufficiently, the surface is trimmed and smoothed using a steel
trowel.
12. The application thickness must be 8 to 10 mm on ceiling, and 10 to 20 mm on the
other facades. If a second layer of plaster is required, application must be made
before previous layer is fully cured.
13. The application must not exceed one coat on ceilings and two coats on the other
surfaces.
14. Do not mix any other product or materials into BGC Gypsum Hand Plaster.
15. The surface of BGC Gypsum Hand Plaster must be protected against the wind in
order not to dry quickly
Storage Conditions
-Bags must be stored in a dry place and to a height that does not exceed 18 bags. Bags must be stored so as not to contact with the ground in order them to be protected against humid. BGC Gypsum Hand Plaster stored as described above must be used within 12 months as of the production date. Inappropriate storage or exceeding the expiry date may deteriorate the properties of the product.
