u Tough and flexible.
u Excellent adhesion.

Uses
As a base coat render; it is applied in one coat, avoiding the drying
time associated with multi-coat render systems. It can be used
internally and externally. UNIVERSAL BUILDING RENDER resists the
penetration of external water and has excellent weather
resistance and durability, whilst also allowing the structure to
breathe. UNIVERSAL BUILDING RENDER can be applied to most
substrates including suitably prepared brickwork and concrete.

Preparation
It is important that the correct grade of render is chosen to suit
the substrate and application. Please refer to EN13914-1 design,
preparation and application of external rendering. All surfaces
must be clean, dry and free from any material which may impair
adhesion.
Poorly keyed surfaces should be pre-treated with a suitable
primer. Faults in the structure must be rectified before rendering.
Mask around the areas where material is to be applied. This must
be removed before the material has dried out. Note: In many
cases rendering applied to expanded metal lathing is more prone
to cracking than when applied to dense masonry. To reduce this
risk, lathing must be fixed strictly in accordance with the
manufacturer’s recommendations and relevant codes of practice.
Expansion joints should be included as required.

Mixing
A 25Kg bag of UNIVERSAL BUILDING RENDER should be mixed with
4-5L of clean water using a mechanical stirrer. Best results are
obtained using as little water as possible. The product may stiffen
on standing. Do not add more water; simply re-mix to regain a
workable consistency.

Application
Use a hawk and trowel to apply UNIVERSAL BUILDING RENDER in a
single operation. On low suction backgrounds a first pass may be
necessary prior to building up the full thickness in the second
pass. For external render applications we recommend
approximately 16mm thickness for sheltered to moderate
exposure or 20mm for severe exposure.
For internal render applications we recommend approximately 8 –
19mm thickness. Thickness should not exceed 25mm. Rule, level
and fill as you go. Allow the product to ‘pick up’ for approximately
30-60 minutes depending on weather and background suction.
Using a plastic or wood float, rub up in the traditional way to
achieve a flat plain finish. Other appropriate finishes may be
achieved by suitable means. Cure for 2-3 days before over coating.
During rapid drying conditions such as hot climates, curing with a
fine spray of clean water may be necessary. Protect from
unfavorable weather conditions during application and early
curing. To avoid dampness and discoloration of finishes,
rendering should be avoided below DPC or within 150mm of
ground level.

Cleaning
All tools and equipment should be cleaned in water. Cured
material can only be removed by mechanical means.

Limitations
Do not apply in damp, wet conditions or if frost is forecast within
24 hours. Application temperature: 5°C - 30°C. Do not apply on
elevations in direct sunlight or where the substrate is hot. Bond It
UNIVERSAL BUILDING RENDER is not suitable for use over gypsum
plaster or surfaces that have been previously decorated.

Coverage
When applied at 16mm thickness, coverage is approximately 35m2
per tone or 1m2 per 25Kg sack. For each mm of thickness you will
require 1.8Kg/m2
.
