Product Information

SURFACE PREPARATION

Surface preparation is the responsibility of the Builder / Renovator / Main Contractor and the Applicator. The substrate must be clean, dry and free of all powdery residue or any other contaminants that may interfere with adhesion.

APPLICATION

Patch `Em-Up is applied by hawk and trowel to a thickness between 2mm to 4mm to the surface from the bottom upwards in a single layer to the required thickness. Patch `Em-Up is then finished by plastic or polystyrene float or damp sponges. Care should be taken not to overwork the surface area. Please Note application of Patch `Em-Up to F.C sheeting: • Apply a bedding coat of Polyrend Fine / Coarse with alkaline resistant tape into joints and let dry. • Apply a generous coat of Patch `Em-Up to entire surface, finishing with a plastic float. • Apply a further coat of Patch `Em-Up upon setting of first coat finishing with timber, plastic float or damp sponge.

DRYING / CURING TIMES

Patch `Em-Up will dry at 25℃ and 50% relative humidity normally in 2-5 hours, however drying will take longer at lower temperatures or higher relative humidity. Patch `Em-Up may be overcoated with any texture coating after 7 days.

MIXING

Mix 1 x 20kg bag of Patch `Em-Up with 5 – 5.3litres of water to obtain correct lump free consistency using a power stirrer or similar device. Care should be taken to ensure Patch `Em-Up is thoroughly mixed. Dependant on the ambient temperature and the desired consistency, the amount of water required may vary slightly but should not exceed 5.5litres per 20kg bag of Patch `Em-Up. Excess mixing water may result in surface crazing, cracking and as well as delaminating.

COVERAGE

1 X 20kg bag of Patch `Em-Up will cover approximately 8-10m2 at an average thickness of 2mm.
