ThermoShell LogoThermoShell - PLINTHCOAT

A robust, internal and external plinth render

Description

A lime/cement plinth render suitable for areas where high impact resistance is required or where exposure to splash back is to be expected.

Application

Clean down background to remove any dust, dirt or any matter which will impair the bonding of the render, using a high pressure water jet where necessary. Mask all dirt sensitive elements.

No preparation is required for new blockwork, only pre-wet where necessary to prevent rapid hydration.

For application to brickwork / concrete / stonework or existing masonry then apply ThermoShell (TS) - RENDERPRIME first and allow to dry.

Apply TS-PLINTHCOAT to a minimum thickness of 10mm internally and 15mm externally, strike off and level. TS-PLINTHCOAT can be applied up to 20mm in a single coat. For thicknesses of 20-35mm then apply in 2 coats allowing for a layer of TS-REINFORCING MESH to the whole surface, brush line the first layer of render and allow to fully dry.
