Wykamol High Impact Finish Plaster

High Impact Plaster Finish is highly durable and designed to provide a quality, long lasting finish over Wykamol Renovation Plaster, or a range of other substrates, including existing gypsum plaster, plasterboard lime based backgrounds & sand cement backgrounds.

High Impact Plaster Finish should be used as part of the Re-plastering System, after the installation of a damp-proof course. It is also an ideal product to use as part of flood remediation due to its breath-ability and domestic commercial environments such as hospitals, schools and childrens nurseries which are prone to accidental damage.


Product Benefits:

  • Excellent resistance to glancing impacts.

  • High resistance to accidental damage, such as scratching, gouging or chipping.

  • Extended times between necessary maintenance of plaster finish.

  • Compatible with multiple substrates.

  • Flexible and breathable.

  • Can be left unpainted if a natural, matte look is desired.

  • Extended working time compared to similar products.

  • Workable and easy to apply.


Typical Uses:

  • High traffic commercial environments such as hospitals and children’s nurseries.

  • domestic environments which are prone to accidental damage, such as family homes.

  • As a finish over plasterboard, As a finish over existing gypsum plaster and lime backgrounds.

  • As part of flood remediation works.

Substrate Preparation:

A scratched finish should have been achieved prior to the curing process.

  • Prime the Renovation Plaster or existing gypsum/ lime plaster finish with SBR Latex, mixed 1:1 with water.
  • Allow to become tacky to the touch. This will take approx. 30 minutes to 2 hours.

When Applying to Plasterboard:

  • Wykamol recommends an application of SBR Latex, mixed 1:1 with water, to prime the plasterboard.
  • Allow to become tacky to the touch. This will take approx. 30 minutes to 2 hours.

When Applying to Other Existing Plaster:

  • Ensure existing plaster is clean, level and in good condition. If this is not the case, existing plaster should be removed.
  • Prime with an application of SBR Latex, mixed 1:1 with water.
  • Allow to become tacky to the touch. This will take approx. 30 minutes to 2 hours.

Please Note: High Impact Plaster Finish should only be used for interior plastering works.

When applying to renovation plaster or existing gypsum/lime plasters. Refer to the relevant datasheet for Renovation Plaster application instructions. Allow Renovation Plaster to cure for at least 48 hours, dependent on ambient temperature.


Mixing:

When mixing High Impact Plaster Finish use ONLY CLEAN WATER, a clean mixing vessel and a mechanical mixer.

Required water additions: 8.0 - 9.0 Litres per 25Kg Bag.

  1. Pour 8 Litres of clean water in to the mixing vessel.

  2. Using an electric paddle, gradually start to add the powder whilst mixing under low shear to reduce dust generation.

  3. Add all powder and increase mixing shear.

  4. Mix for 1-3 minutes to achieve a uniform, lump free plaster.

  5. If necessary, gradually add water and mix until desired consistency is achieved. Only add a maximum of 1 Litres.

Note: Excessive mechanical mixing should be avoided. Mechanical mixing time must not exceed 5 minutes.


Application Method:

High Impact Plaster Finish is applied in a single coat at a thickness of 2 - 5mm.

Note: Do not apply at a thickness less than 2 mm or the high impact properties will not be achieved.


Conditions & Limitations:

High Impact Plaster Finish should only be used for interior plastering works. The product has a matte finish and should therefore not be overworked.

The product should not be applied in temperatures under 5°C and rising or if temperatures are expected to fall below 5°C within 24 hours. Ensure the substrate temperature is not below 5°C before commencing application.

Finishing:

Allow the plaster to sufficiently harden before levelling with a stainless steel trowel. This is typically 50 - 80 minutes. Use typical plastering techniques to achieve desired finish.


Decoration:

Allow High Impact Plaster Finish to dry for 24 hours before applying decorative finishes.

Breathable paint must be used if High Impact Plaster Finish has been applied as part of the Re-plastering System, after a DPC.

If redecoration is to occur 6 months after the DPC installation, non-breathable finishes may be used. If permanent and impermeable finishes are being considered, e.g. non breathable paints or wallpaper, the moisture content of the plaster and background must be in line with the recommendations of the supplier of the chosen finish.
